Required disk space (database)

[ksv]

Dear developers?
How much disk space is needed for one user on average?

Hi ksv, its depend how you are going to use this. In our case we did only updating the system with Accounts, Leads, Opportunities, Calls, Meeting, Cases this makes db size 1GB for 2 years including 20 active users.

From the file itself it is ~36mb (extraction may increase this as it was probably compress): https://github.com/espocrm/espocrm/releases/
+plus another 50mb or so for a fresh new database.

Fresh install is most likely less than 300mb at best?

Now the filesize will slowly increase as you create record (image get create) and data get populated, but even then the file size probably won't go too far. Cache will also increase the filesize but you need cache to get fast.

It when you start adding your email, and upload documents is where the majority of the filesize it. Now if you don't use either of those function, I doubt you will surpass 10gb with just text (unless you got hundreds of thousand).
