Citrix ShareFile vs OneDrive

• First and foremost, it is simple to use. Within minutes of our purchase of ShareFile, we were up and running with our first user and client.
• Second, there are multiple ways to use and take advantage of ShareFile. There is a plug-in for Microsoft Outlook, a desktop app as well as Sync. All options are easily implemented and simple to navigate.
• Third, When thinking about simplicity and making it as seamless as possible for your end users, you can also set up ShareFile as a Drive Map that allows your users to take advantage of the Windows file system without dealing with synchronization of account content.
• There are so many advantages to this product, however, I feel that the simplicity and functionality are the main advantages. Citrix ShareFile tech support is amazing and they really (if you need help) answer all question extremely fast.

• One Drive integrates wonderfully with the Microsoft Suite. Word, Excel, and PowerPoint documents are easy to edit and create.
• One Drive has a fair amount of free storage as well, we have not had to buy storage and have been using it for six years.
• Sharing documents with others on One Drive is easy as well. The option to view or edit is very useful.

• In my experience with Citrix ShareFile, I have not found any significant CONs to report. Many people may have Drobox and other products...I would say that these products are not an apples-to-apples comparison. There are significantly different pricing structures between products, some of them being a little on the pricey side if you are a small business.
• I have heard of a few people having issues with browser compatibility, however, I have not. We have about 20 users that are using IE11 as well as Edge w/ Windows 10 Pro and we haven't experienced any issues at all.
• The only function/feature I would like to see improved is the audit reporting and logs. You have to go to each folder/individual to obtain the activity log/report and to me that is cumbersome. I would like to see a centralized audit log generation tool that categorizes the users and the folders and provides details needed.

• OneDrive client is horrible on macOS
• Official OneDrive client is non-existent on Linux
• OneDrive support on older Windows versions like 8.1 and less is still buggy
• Sharepoint still tries to use the old OneDrive client by default. You need to go in the setting and tell it to use the new client.
• Even if it is a lot better then before, OneDrive client is still often not able to sync folders with huge items or a huge amount of small items.

• The main ROI has been the ability to completely stop offering paper plans. All plans must now be accessed electronically saving the printing costs we incurred before.
• A soft ROI would be the ability for users to access on-premise files remotely and allow them the ability to skip the previous need to drive back to the office or trailer.
• When we used it, the Outlook plugin that automatically uploaded large files was a huge success at the company and is a big need for any company that does not have a product offering it.

• Still no negative impact. Since it was implemented in the company, the impact has been positive due to the collaboration resources in the work environment.
