A must for remote work
Comments: I have used this program for the last 4 years personally and through the companies I've worked for. It's great especially when you're collaborating across departments. Everybody can see what's being worked on and they're able to edit it.
Pros:
It's convenient and I'm able to access documents on different devices.
Cons:
There is no downside that I can think of. I am able to use this for both personal and work related documents which is very convenient.
Alternatives Considered:
an underrated storage service
Comments: I love how easy and intuitive is to set up OneDrive just by creating an account
Pros:
OneDrive is completly integrated with windows and office, so there's no need to download it and it's easy to use
Cons:
Free tier could be small, comparing with other storage services like google drive
Good Product for Microsoft Suite
Comments: Its a decent add on to Microsoft Suite however I would not seek it out as a cloud storage solution
Pros:
It has decent logic for folders and sharing however it is a little clunky compared to soome of its c ompetitors in the same space.
Cons:
Being part of microsoft suite makes this a good option however the working offline features are dated and not as efficient as they should be
Secure and reliable clouid service
Comments: It's safe and secure to store confidential work files with multiple layers of security. Furthermore, it, allows collaboration with my team members
Pros:
It's excellent to store and share files with colleagues and it offers a really good and intuitive user interface.
Cons:
it's complicated to sync folders (outside of your own One drive), so there is a requirement of a bit of learning to get used to it.
perfect in everything
Comments: As I use it daily, I can say that my experience with the app is extremely practical and functional for my varied needs > personal use, work, business and family.
Pros:
The diversity of services offered by the app, where we connect everything in the clouds and with immediate and organized access
Cons:
As a user for several years, it is clear that I have nothing against talking about the app.
Organization helps!
Comments: I used it extensively for work and it housed many documents I used frequently.
Pros:
I like that all files are organized in one place.
Cons:
It’s not easy to maneuver and go between folders and groups.
Love OneDrive
Pros:
I love the ease of accessing files across all devices and sharing larger files that I would not be able to send via email or text.
Cons:
I have not found anything that I've disliked thus far with using OneDrive.
Ease of everything in one spot
Comments: Overall I would suggest this for people looking for an easy way to keep all information in one space, especially if you have a business with multiple computers and have working from home employees
Pros:
It’s so nice being able to have all your stuff from multiple different office computers all in one space to access from anywhere!
Cons:
It took a little bit to get the hang of. I’m used to iCloud, so getting used to one drive was a bit of a change, but it wasn’t hard and was easy to pick up!
OneDrive: Super Convenient File Sharing and Syncing Tool for your Team
Comments: Positive for file sharing and folder creation, but as far as file organization/moving and syncing, there are other products I prefer.
Pros:
OneDrive is an easy and convenient tool for file storage and file sharing for a professional team.
Cons:
It has limited features when it comes to file syncing and file organization. I prefer Dropbox for easy file moving, organization and syncing across a whole team.
OneDrive is one of the best cloud storage solutions
Pros:
OneDrive provides a reliable infrastructure to store everything in cloud.
Cons:
OneDrive can be chepaer in professional plans.
Alternatives Considered:
OneDrive has come from behind in the cloud storage race
Comments: Storing files to the cloud with OneDrive and sharing and syncing data across devices has become simple and seamless across the devices I have it installed on.
Pros:
1TB of OneDrive storage is included with my Microsoft 365 supscription.
Cons:
It wasn't as good as Dropbox at first but it got better. It just took it some time to get better.
Better File Organization
Comments: The experience with Onedrive was relatively good. I like many things about it and it's familiar.
Pros:
Onedrive is pre-installed on some devices and with an existing Microsoft account there is no need to do anything other than sign in. Onedrive is secure and allows me to restrict access as needed. The best feature in my opinion is file organization. It's a practical and logical system. I can pull up any file I need almost instantly. Onedrive is part of a larger group of software that can be even more helpful as a whole. OneNote, for example. Office is another that I found helpful of course. Help is relatively easy to find. The price and alloted storage are good if you've bundled with Office/365.
Cons:
Large files and sharing can be troublesome due to limited options. Synchronization has limited options as well. I've had a problem with duplicate files. I question if Onedrive is the best option for business accounts.
Secure and User Friendly
Pros:
OneDrive is very user friendly and easy to deploy.
Cons:
It is difficult to know when you are not signed in to OneDrive. We have a company setting that you are automatically logged in when you start your laptop; however, that grey cloud appears and you may lose your work.
Alternatives Considered:
Great cloud storage but lacks storage capacity
Comments: Overall my experience with OneDrive is great and I would definitely recommend for people with low storage needs, but if someone needs more storage capacities, Apple iCloud and Google Drive offers more options on storage capacities.
Pros:
OneDrive is a wonderful cloud storage option. Its security is strong and you can easily manage the permissions on your contents. Also it integrates very great with all Microsoft softwares and devices, even on Android, iOS and MacOS.
Cons:
OneDrive is limited to a maximum of 1TB storage capacity, therefore if you're a graphic designer or someone working with other graphic content like me, you'll find that capacity very low and will probably have to look for other cloud storage option like I did. Also, if like me you have to use linux on occasion you will find very anoying to be forced to go to OneDrive via the web browser because Microsoft still refuses to create a linux version of OneDrive Desktop.

Disappointing Cloud Storage Solution
Comments: My experience with OneDrive has been disappointing. The storage space provided is insufficient, and the cost is too high for the amount of space you get. Additionally, I found the software intrusive as it created a folder within my documents without my consent. Overall, OneDrive did not meet my expectations for a cloud storage solution.
Pros:
neDrive integrates well with other Microsoft products, which can be convenient if you are already using tools like Microsoft Office.
Cons:
The storage capacity is too low, especially given the high cost. The price does not justify the limited space provided. Additionally, the way OneDrive inserts a folder into my documents is frustrating and disruptive to my file organization. This lack of flexibility and control over how my files are managed is a significant drawback.
Microsoft OneDrive: Reviewing Its Integration and Functionality
Comments: Overall, OneDrive is an essential aspect of how I interact with the Microsoft 365 environment and collaborate with others across a variety of work-related devices. While it has its issues, I could not imagine working in a Microsoft workspace without it.
Pros:
What I like most about OneDrive is its ease of use and integration with most of my applications (Microsoft Office Apps, Teams, and Outlook). The layout mirrors the interface of Windows File Explore, which presents a layer of familiarity for me as I primarily use the Windows operating system.
Cons:
There are a few things that I dislike about OneDrive. First, maximizing its use requires dependency on the Microsoft suite of products. This can limit functionality if you have more than one workspace or environment that you have in your organization.
OneDrive Review
Comments: The fact that my data is secure when kept in OneDrive also gives me peace of mind. Taking a lot of factors into account, I can state that this application is really dependable, easy to use, and keeps me working while also making my life easier and my data safer.
Pros:
OneDrive's cloud storage is something I enjoy using because it frees up a lot of space on my smartphone. Additionally, it enables me to access my files on any device. Whether I'm making documents or presentations for work, OneDrive works nicely with other programs.
Cons:
I've had no problems with OneDrive for the past three years, and I adore it. I think a lot of people have problems because they don't read the instructions, don't understand how it works, and just click "yes" to everything when installing it.
One Drive !! Use it it is easy and imperative for any small business owner
Comments: One Drive has been easy and very smooth sailing. I use it daily for my business. I know it is secure and great tool for my business to help be successful.
Pros:
One Drive takes all my fears away of loosing my most valuable information. My clients. Without my clients I have no business. Plus, it gives them an ease of mind also and it is easy.
Cons:
So far really nothing I can say. I am being honest.
Great Cloud Storage!
Comments: My overall experience with OneDrive has been positive. I have never had any problems getting files on multiple devices. You can quickly search and download all your files on multiple devices.
Pros:
The one thing I like most about OneDrive is its free to use. You can pay a subscription to get my storage if needed. I am a teacher and use multiple devices. I have a computer at work, at home, a laptop, and a tablet. I have all my devices connected to OneDrive. If I am working on an assignment at work, I can easily pick back up when I get home. I don't have to worry about saving everything to a flash drive and pray I don't forget it before leaving. I also like to have backups of everything I do. OneDrive makes it simple to search for a certain assignment
Cons:
One of the cons of using OneDrive is you have to pay to get more storage. You would think they would include this when you buy a Microsoft account.

Onedrive for yall
Comments: I have been using one drive for a while now. Hadnt let me down yet.
Pros:
I can save all my files and software on it with ease
Cons:
Nothing at all surprisingly. Usually apps like this have at least one thing i dont like.
Useful but not easy to sync!
Comments: OneDrive is a good tool to sync everything in one place but it is not always intuitive. It also fails to sync to the desktop files often.
Pros:
It’s good for collaboration and syncs up well with Microsoft tools such as teams.
Cons:
I find it difficult to navigate without clear training. It’s not as easy as SharePoint.
OneDrive Review
Comments: It has been alright, except the few breakdowns it has had over the past 2 years.
Pros:
What I like the most is the Quick Access in OneDrive. All the projects and all the most used shared documents or sites show up.
Cons:
When displaying the files there is way too much detail with the file. It is just too much there.
OneDrive storage
Comments: Overall, OneDrive is agood cloud storage solution, its integrating with Windows and Office very well and work together flawless.
Pros:
Windows already came with Onedrive installed and no many setting needed to be done, so setting up si fast and easy. Adding contribuators and sharing files with colleagues via OneDrive is fast and secured. For me working from diferent devices is someting I do everyday, syncronization of any docs is essential and OneDrive offers this.
Cons:
This is a personal opinion, when browsing the files it doesnt feel as fluid as the competitor (G).
