Maximum support limitations of SCCM 2007. However, in my personal experience this would change depending upon the scenarios (Mostly depending upon the connectivity, features, support model, SLA and DR/BCP requirements)Disk & other hardware configuration details listed below can be used to get very rough idea about the sizing and planning. Actual numbers should vary depending upon the scenarios.

Remote / Branch Infrastructure Options
| Branch Size (# users) | SCCM Remote Architecture | Capacity / Licence Requirements |
| 0-3 users | No local infrastructure | No SCCM specific licence required beyond the SCCM CAL |
| 3-25 users | Single Branch Distribution Point | No SCCM specific licence required beyond the SCCM CAL |
