    Dell AppSync maintains consistent and automated backups and in case of disaster recovery the software provides all the options of automatically generated daily copies to choose from. Integration can take place in different environments such as VMware, SQL, Oracle, Microsoft and others. Built-in management and compatibility makes work easier and lets you keep the always-on service up and running. We recommend Dell AppSync.

    I can speak from my own experience: in cases where workstations are switched every year or so, one drive makes it very simple to keep things synced, even for very large files. This is even true for large files (such as video or CAD files) that are enormous.

    • Some functions and apps are not available to all countries/regions
    • The one drive app takes too much space in mobile devices
    • The apps for mobile devices lack some tools, like the option to search templates
    • It could allow to manually plan when to sync, specially photos, which take long times to sync

    I like Box better. If you sign into Microsoft using a personal account, be EXTREMELY careful. All of your downloads could suddenly be available to your entire company, and that is incredibly embarrassing. Did that happen to me? Not going to say, but just always check which MS account you sign into.

    Using OneDrive is very intuitive and has been improved over the years. It's just like using native file management on either your Mac or PC. It's drag and drop functionality is easy and it clearly shows when files are uploaded to the cloud or if there are errors

    It has a good performance, the pages load normally, access to the files, management, reports, everything is working well. With regard to integration with other systems, we have not done so yet.

    It's a Microsoft product so there is a wealth of information online both from Microsoft directly and from millions of users but as a corporate user we also have access to direct Microsoft support through a variety of avenues (phone, email, etc.). This makes finding answers to issues more accessible, however, it does also mean that any new feature requests will get buried.

    Dell EMC Storage products are in use accross the estate so is more suited to use Dell software to manage the replicaiton of data between storage arrays. Provides us with a stable and trouble free mehtod to replicate data across luns. Good product to have implemented during an datacenter outage

    Box is another file-sharing application that is very similar to OneDrive. Box falls short of OneDrive in its syncing capabilities. OneDrive is very quick with syncing so you never have to be concerned that you are not using the most up-to-date materials. Box was always a bit delayed and did not always accurately sync across systems. OneDrive benefits from being backed by Microsoft, so you expect the connection across applications that it allows. OneDrive also provides consistency for use and intuitive understanding because of that Microsoft consistency. I'd prefer OneDrive over Box.

    • OneDrive allows us to save much time on creating and archiving backup copies of our data. Microsoft gives a guarantee on the possibility of recovery of files or folders even from 30 days ago. It provides a great comfort of work.
