Limits are enforced against the aggregate of all API calls made by the organization in a 24 hour period; limits are not on a per-user basis. When an organization exceeds a limit, all users in the organization may be temporarily blocked from making additional calls. Calls will be blocked until usage for the preceding 24 hours drops below the limit. In the Salesforce.com application, administrators can view how many API requests have been issued in the last 24 hours on the Company Information page at Setup Company Prole Company Information. Administrators can also view a more detailed report of API usage over the last seven days by navigating to the Reports tab, selecting the Administrative Reports folder and clicking the API Usage Last 7 days report.
Salesforce.com Limits Quick Reference
Note: Limits are automatically enforced for all editions.
Any action that sends a call to the API counts toward usage limits, except the following: Outbound messages Apex callouts
You can congure your organization so that email is sent to a designated user when the number of API requests has exceeded a specied percentage of the limit. For more information, see About API Usage Notications in the Salesforce.com online help.

Storage Capacity
Each Edition includes a minimum amount of data storage and le storage. Professional, Enterprise, and Unlimited Editions receive a per-user storage amount multiplied by the number of users in the organization if the result is greater than the minimum storage amount. Using data storage as an example, an Enterprise Edition organization with 600 users would receive 12,000 MB (12 GB) of data storage, because 20 MB per user multiplied by 600 users is 12,000 MB. A smaller organization, for example a Professional Edition organization with 20 users, would receive 1 GB of data storage because 20 MB per user multiplied by 20 users is only 400 MB, which is less than the 1 GB minimum allotted to all Professional Edition organizations. The values in the Storage Allocation Per User License column below apply to Salesforce and Salesforce Platform user licenses. The Salesforce Platform Light user license provides 1 MB of data storage and 1 MB of le storage. Note: The only feature license that provides additional storage is Salesforce CRM Content User; each Salesforce CRM Content User license provides an additional 512 MB of le storage. To nd out if your organization has Salesforce CRM Content enabled, contact your administrator.
