  • 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.

  • We have seen some productivity gains for those team members that are fully utilizing the full MS Office suite, including Microsoft Project. Having a more fully-integrated knowledge- and project-management solution is a vast efficiency improvement.
  • We are also able to more effectively collaborate with external partners, by granting access to specific folders within our document repository.
  • We are able to more effectively collaborate internally with these fine-grained access controls as well, whereas previously an entirely separate Dropbox area was needed for sensitive documents (budgets, salary information, W-9s, contracts, etc)
  • Some permissions issues (bugs where subfolders don't inherit permissions appropriately) occasionally cause loss of trust in the product with some team members, causing them to fall back to other tools and fragmenting our document repository.

  • Helps to manage tasks, keeps everyone aware of progress made (user versioning features).
  • Not particularly expensive for a large company, especially with virtually unlimited space.
  • Team in the field complains about the connectivity reliability feature. Really a sore point, but that's for any cloud service.

  • We have really used Onedrive to help speed the process up of document sharing and collaboration. With this in mind, we are able to speed up our through-put. This is a definite positive to the ROI for our department.

  • Being bundled into our Office 365 accounts makes the service very inexpensive compared to alternative cloud providers.
  • Providing our users with a cloud storage solution has definitely benefited our mobile employees by allowing them to have the files they need accessible to them in the field.
  • We're able to control the external sharing of documents to a much greater degree with OneDrive.

  • OneDrive has made device replacement faster as users no longer have many files stored locally.
  • Increase in productivity as users are now able to work from anywhere on practically any device they choose.
  • Decrease in downtime as users are no longer hampered by a faulty device. They can simply switch to another device and continue working.

  • We now have all users major profile folders/files backed up to their OneDrive profiles.
  • Took a very long time to roll out OneDrive through AD and find a way to monitor if users OneDrive's were synced. No resources on any logging or errors; test and test more.
  • Easy to get access to a user's files on another device by signing them into OneDrive.
  • Good solution for sharing/syncing a folder with multiple users.

  • It has had a positive impact because it allows us to share files with coworkers easily without the need of additional hardware.
  • The ability to access information just with an internet connection is excellent while working in the clients offices or in the field.

  • OneDrive allows our users to sync and share Microsoft Office documents via shared SharePoint sites
  • OneDrive with it's 1TB storage allows our users to publicly share huge files that would otherwise require an paid storage upgrade on Google Drive side
  • With Sharepoint and the Office inside web browser, it allows us to create, edit and save files from a phone, tablet or from a computer that doesn't have Office installed

  • Reps now have access to updated content from wherever they are
  • Versioning control down to desktop machines is limited so reps still have copies of old documents that are being used
  • New content can be announced and rolled out very quickly

  • The positive impact is ease of access to documents.
  • Another positive is being able to control who has access to what documents.
  • We had the AC unit in our server room go out over the summer, and our servers fried. People who had not transitioned to OneDrive could not work for several days. With OneDrive, hardware failure is not an issue because users can access from anywhere with a web browser.

  • Modest increase in productivity inasmuch as I no longer have to VPN to my local office machine to upload an updated version of a document I downloaded from our storage location and worked on.
  • Has allowed some sequestration of personal contents I store on there, wasn't available on our earlier mass storage.

  • Allows us to get information in timely manner
  • Not everyone is tech savvy so it can still be cumbersome trying to get old timers to use so productivity time is sometimes low
  • Sharing information with user face is very simple

  • Being able to store large files in the cloud allows our business to save money on local storage costs.
  • Being able to have multiple people work on the same file without having to email it back and forth saves the company money by decreasing the labor time people have to spend creating emails.
  • There could be a problem with storing information in the cloud if internet service is interrupted and access is needed to a particular file.
