We utilize Onedrive, which is part of the Microsoft 365 package, to fully back all of the personal data upon every user's computer and to share papers with customers online in a way that allows many people to work on a word or excel project at the same time. Providing each customer with a complimentary terabyte of storage is a great method to ensure that everyone else's personal data have always been safeguarded in the clouds.
- OneDrive allows sending the folders you designate.
- OneDrive makes it simple to share huge files with people without having to contact them.
- Multiple people can access the same files using OneDrive information in the cloud.
- Maintaining real-time coordination with all of my devices has proven tough.
- System restore would occasionally stop working for short periods of time.
- Occasionally, the font of the papers is changed.
- Keeps files in order.
- Makes hard drive space available.

My organization uses OneDrive as a cloud sharing service, and it's a fresh new tool. Documents are shared for collaboration, work flows are shared for input, and HR tracking is shared. It's being utilized throughout the organization, and it's steadily gaining traction from different departments. Having a central location to store files that are only available to individuals you invite is beneficial.
- Allows users to simply access and navigate through the environment without the need for extensive training or hand-in labor.
- Fast cloud upload system.
- Auto syncing is incredible.
- Playback in cloud specially videos.
- Files not very organized.
- Different device syncing.
- Fast upload.

OneDrive is a flexible, powerful, and user-friendly solution that adapts to every situation. It may be used by large, medium, and small enterprises. Companies who do not have the funds to purchase a NAS server may utilize OneDrive to keep their papers online at all times, since Microsoft guarantees that your data will never be lost.
I might not.
We needed unlimited data servers so we need to backup them in cloud which must be premium plan.

OneDrive for Business is what every corporate backup should be
This is for OneDrive for Business. Note: I use OneDrive as cloud file repository and personal backup solution that has both PC and mobile access. At work, my colleagues (within the department) and my project team use OneDrive for Business to sync our project files and work files as a backup solution.
- Seamless syncing and backup over a corporate network. There is no need for manual upload and download of files anymore.
- Access is controlled via MS Active Directory. Our files cannot be accessed by others outside our department/project team.
- Secured environment. Syncing to the server is over our corporate network and VPN from home.
- Setting up folders can be done easily from SharePoint without much configuration.
- Need to install OneDrive for Business. This is installed together with our Office Enterprise in our work laptops. We need the IT team to install this or [get it] pushed down from central management.
- The disk quota is unknown. Unlike OneDrive at home, the available space is not really visible to the client.
- After setting up the folder, it is hard to move it to another folder - for example moving from My Documents to D:/ Drive to reclaim space.

- As an end user, OneDrive has been super useful for team and department use. As there is no actual access to the value of investment, ROI is not available.
- Microsoft Server
Prior to OneDrive, our official backup recommendation was to copy important files to a personal folder on a mapped Network Drive.
OneDrive blows this out of the water in terms of convenience and ease of use.

- Quicker access to files
- Ability to share with outsiders
Feels like OneDrive is more secure than Google Drive. OneDrive also feels like it is a better integrated solution across multiple platforms.

OneDrive, best for MS Office users.
Even though our company uses Office 360, there is no company wide policy for using of OneDrive as default file sharing and storage system. Every user has access to their own OneDrive directory. Most people use it to share files with other employees. I use it mostly to share files between many devices. I like to have my documentation accessible whenever I need it. Usually when I have ideas about some documentation I need to write, I start writing it at that moment. It can be in train on my way to work. Then I can open the same document on my office machine and continue working on it. I can imagine more people doing the same.
I also use OneDrive with OneNote - taking notes on my phone or Surface, and open them on desktop to review and organize them.

- It works on every platform and device.
- Sometimes the files get corrupted, I had a situation on my home desktop PC (Windows 10), where I was not able to sync for a long time. I needed to remove one drive and install clean copy.
- Synchronization speed and frequency sometimes is low.

- Makes work faster and more transparent
Dropbox might be less popular and slower. It is not that well integrated into document editing software (Office or OneNote), but Dropbox has one key (for me) feature that OneDrive does not. In Dropbox you have to upload simple HTML page, share the link to that HTML document and open it in a browser like it is a regular website.
Google Drive has free in-browser document editing software. You don't need install any software to have a simple text or spreadsheet editor. OneDrive should allow something like this as well.

- Saving and opening files to OneDrive folders.
- It (usually) syncs without you even noticing it or any need for any user action.
- When it stops working (does not sync) it is hard to troubleshoot.

OneDrive has many mobile apps. Sometimes, it takes time for my Android OneDrive app to log in.
Also the Android app could be better integrated into phone. You should be able to open a Word document in any editor straight from OneDrive and then save it straight back to OneDrive. Sometimes you have to use the share-to function to save back to OneDrive.
The Windows 8 / Windows 10 app could look better. It has typical Windows 8 app view. It is very boring.
