Do not be concerned about Internet bandwidth consumption. This has always been a primary focus on the development side, because metered connections still exist in some places in the world and, if the connection is bad, we don’t want to consume bandwidth.

Inventory data is collected intelligently, so only delta data is collected. If nothing changes from day to day and the user does not request admin elevation, no traffic happens. The actual data transferred from the client to the cloud service is minimal. If you take a random client and divide the traffic from typical use for a month, divide by days, we are talking about 5K of data per day. Or said in another way, you can expect a thousand machines to consume only about 150 megabytes of bandwidth per month.
