How to View Utilization

Is there a view to how heavy utilized our profile is being used? ie: 50% of the network is being used and is it possible to view who is using a lot of data and am I able to stop it?

When you say profile, do you mean a specific SSID? Have you looked at the widgets available in the Dashboard> Summary page? For instance you can see the total application usage for your APs, the top applications being used, the top users on your network, etc. Is that what you were looking for?

Most of the GUI reporting isn't exactly real time. It gets close but the reports and widgets are updated when we received information back from the APs, so there is a bit of a delay there. For real time information, I might recommend a packet capture. Once you have a packet capture file, within Wireshark you can click on Statistics> Conversations to see each individual device and exactly how much traffic each is sending.

Almost what I was looking for, but is there a way to view what is happening at the very moment? Like which user is downloading/streaming and slowing down the SSID?
