Overall Satisfaction with Apple iCloud
As we are a wholly Microsoft for education place, the vast majority of campus is on One Drive. However, our department is almost all on various Mac laptops/desktops and also iPads. Also, as most of us have iPhones, we're all using Apple iCloud in some capacity, so it makes sense for some things to be accessible on what we are already using.
- Seamless backups
- Pretty straightforward to use
- Sharing files is very simple
- Limited compared to the competition
- A little more pricy than the competition
- Web interface can use some work
- Device syncing
- photo backup
- account sync
- Very little setup
- Easy to get employee buy-in as they are already familiar with it (most are anyway)
- Peace of mind for auto backups
Already a part of the Apple ecosystem, so if it suits our needs, we will use it. We have a Department shared Dropbox account specifically for sharing large projects with vendors, so Apple iCloud is for lighter internal projects such as shared spreadsheets for project documentation or production quotes.
