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.

Convenient in collaboration

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.

Best cloud sharing for business users.
Onedrive is used as a cloud repository for all local documents. At our organization the majority of new laptops have 128GB SSD out of which 10GB will be lost in backup and other OS activity. With Onedrive we are able to get 1TB of free space and sync all our documents across different machines in our organization. This is really helpful in case of an accidental crash or any other issues.
- Sync all the data across different machines.
- 1TB of free space with corporate account.
- History tracking and version updates.
- In some scenarios Onedrive takes a long time to sync files and it causes issues on the application side if you want to edit it. The application will throw an exception as the file being used by Onedrive service.
- OneDrive creates new file when sync is in progress and that makes another version of file with the user changing the file. It gets difficult sometimes to sync these files. They should improve sync process.
- OneDrive creates default a folder on a laptop under the user directory. If a user could control the location it would be helpful. By having it at user level it takes time to load the profile every time a user logs in to a machine.

Onedrive is great for photo and general backup
Onedrive is not used by my employer or even recommended by them. It is not being used by any department that I know about. I use it on my own to back up my work and share large files. I started using it even more after I got a promotional offer from Bing rewards to redeem my Bing rewards for 2 years of extended storage.
- Easy to use. There is not much to it.
- Camera backup for my phone.
- Web app for uploading is very good.
- Allows sharing public file links easily without requiring the viewer to have an account.
- More advanced options are hard to find. e.g. to change which files to keep locally and which files to keep only on cloud.
- Phone interface for browsing file could be redesigned.

I use Google Drive regularly as well. I get unlimited Google Drive space for my school use. So, my school related things are almost exclusively on Google Drive. I also use Google Docs and Slides on regular basis. I find them intuitive and easy to use , especially in collaborative scenario. I do not know how Onedrive word processor compares to Google Docs as I did not feel need to look for more options.
Not Sure

I would choose Onedrive again under same conditions. Due to Bing Rewards, I got a hefty storage for minimal charge. I would also be extremely inclined to continue my membership if the price remains reasonable enough. I have been very satisfied with the camera backup service.
