Per-Project Soft Quotas for Storage Usage
Mike Jennings
Let me restate your request differently so that I can make sure I'm understanding your request correctly.
You would like the Workspace Administrator to set storage quotas per-project, and to notify project admins (onscreen alert? email?) when they are within some percentage of reaching/exceeding the quota. Is that right?
By "soft" you mean that it doesn't prevent subsequent uploads, it just means they can expect a nasty note from a supervisor or something?
Seems like it would need to bubble down so that the project admin a) sees the usage/quota for the project, and sees the usage at the review level to help them manage usage at that level.

Mike Jennings: Hey Mike,
Soft, by presenting a warning on sync or upload would be nice, but doesn't stop the person creating a new review . So they are aware they're close to the project's quota. A nice red banner up the top could also be a nice way to do it like the current scheduled downtime banner.
The quota can be a field in the admin view that the admin / admins can define, but we want to enable our content or review creators to know they need to clean up their projects space. 100 gb or 100Tb of space educating people that its still a finite resources with out putting the admin who in a lot of cases ends up not being the person using the tool, just the person paying for the service.
If you wanted to go as far as showing the current projects usage against its quota, that could also be a nice graphic for people, if its getting close to 90% full.
Thanks
