File sharing and editing in real time.
Date: Feb 26 2022SummaryDespite the negative features of OneDrive that are really quite minimal and do not directly affect our experience, we consider that we had a fairly good experience, very complete and that allowed us to get the most out of it thanks to the integration system with Office 365. Our files they can be shared over the Office 365 network and sent to any of the Office services. We are very happy to have this great cloud storage platform, we have been able to access our files from any device and without any limits. OneDrive has also allowed us to streamline working together, we have edited documents with the help of colleagues and we have been able to finish editing them faster.
PositiveOneDrive is one of our most important cloud storage services, due to its great synchronization and integration with other Office 365 services that we currently use in our company. One of the things that I liked the most about OneDrive are the following:
- OneDrive allows editing documents simultaneously with other people. It works as a real-time service so that the people who are modifying the document can see the changes made by the other person in real time, without any type of delay. Also, it's great to see how we can edit documents together as this helps make group work more streamlined.
- To upload files to OneDrive it is not necessary to open its web version, it is only enough to have OneDrive installed on the computer, and the platform will create a folder on the desktop, all the files that are moved to that folder can immediately be viewed on OneDrive cloud, there is no need to upload files individually or open the web version to upload those files, just move them to the folder.
- The OneDrive application is perfect for viewing files in the cloud from your phone. All the files that are stored can be viewed from the phone without having to wait for additional time.
- It has excellent synchronization with Office 365 services. We are integrating it with the Yammer service and the results have been excellent.NegativeThe negative characteristics that I have noticed in OneDrive are the following:

- OneDrive free trial is quite limited. It only offers 15GB of free storage and no integration with other Office 365 services is allowed. When we first started using OneDrive, we found the free features to be quite limited which forced us to go for a paid business plan to get a good deal out of it. advantage. I think the free trial should offer more storage space and access to more features.
- Cannot move files to the folder if there is no internet connection. When trying to move a file and there is no internet, it will not be allowed to move there, this is a problem. I would like to be able to leave the files in that folder and upload them when there is an internet connection since sometimes I have to leave my office and it would be excellent to be able to leave files uploading to the cloud and when the internet arrives, they are ready. -

Very beneficial service to keep all your files safe and store all kinds of documents.
Date: Oct 12 2022SummaryMicrosoft OneDrive has managed to be a very essential platform for our entire company, since we started using it we have noticed that our files have remained much safer, in addition, the process of sharing files and documents with our employees, colleagues or friends has been much easier since we used this platform. We are very satisfied with the results obtained and with the experience that this platform has given us, since it has allowed us to store all types of files immediately, we have been able to upload several files simultaneously to store them in our cloud, in addition, This has allowed us to save space on our hard drive in each of the company's computers. Every time an employee in this company needs to share a file with an employee, it is only necessary to use this platform, the process is very simple. In addition, it is also important to highlight that within this experience we have obtained decryption security for each of our files, also, our employees have been able to edit all kinds of documents online with the collaboration of their colleagues, they can make a document with the collaboration from other employees, this role is very beneficial.
PositiveMicrosoft OneDrive is an excellent cloud storage service, I consider it to be one of the best today due to its ability to store files and documents and share them freely with any colleague or friend that you have registered in your Microsoft account. One of the main things that I like about this platform is the free trial, you can store up to 5GB for free, however, if you want more storage space to upload new files, you can always purchase additional space by wanting one of the plans available within of this platform, it is important to note that this platform does not have expensive plans, in addition, each GB that you buy within the platform will be at a fully accessible price, since it is one of the cheapest software to obtain cloud storage. Another of the things that I like about this platform is that it allows you to share files both inside and outside the platform, if you want to share files outside the platform, you can always create a direct link to the file that you have uploaded to the cloud so that any type of person can access it, and if you want to share a file with someone within the platform, you can send it directly to one of your contacts or store it in a shared folder. The third positive thing about this platform is that you can have a real-time synchronization between all the devices where you use your account. For example, if you store a new file from your computer, you will be able to access that file in real time from your mobile device. , since the synchronization is done immediately.
NegativeOne of the main problems or limitations within Microsoft OneDrive is regarding the number of accounts that you can use within it. This platform will only allow you to log in only once simultaneously, that means that you will not be able to open multiple accounts within of the platform, if you want to access several accounts that have a cloud service or that have several files stored, you will have to do it individually, accessing each of them individually, you cannot add all the accounts within the platform to manage storage on each of them, you will have to do it separately. Another of the negative things about this platform is that it totally depends on an internet connection, that means that you can't access your files in the cloud if you don't have an internet connection, trying to access my files in the cloud from my mobile phone without having any internet connection, but it has not been possible, this is a negative point a lot of traffic, since there are other alternative cloud storage platforms that create a copy of each stored file so that you can access it if does not have an internet connection, but this does not happen within Microsoft OneDrive, since that function is not element.

PositiveThis is a great product to have as a company, because this allows everything to be loaded to the cloud so everyone can access it any time and anywhere that has an internet connection.

A totally stable cloud storage that allows colleagues to access files instantly.
Date: Jul 18 2022SummaryThe general experience that we have obtained with OneDrive has been positive at all times, as I mentioned previously, the web version must still be used so that it can be opened normally without having to wait so long, however, we have chosen to use the download version for computers and the mobile version, since it has a much more complete experience and the fluidity is greater. The main benefit factor for our company thanks to this software is the integration with the Microsoft 365 system, thanks to the integration we have been able to export and import all kinds of documents, we have also been able to share all these files and documents with our business network, all our employees can access all the files we store within the OneDrive cloud. We are satisfied with the functionality of the platform, we hope to continue to have results and this totally reliable cloud storage.
PositiveOneDrive has been a great service for giving us pretty comprehensive cloud storage, and out-of-the-box compatibility with the Microsoft 365 service. One of the main things I like about this platform is that it has a different way of storing files on the cloud, when you download that application within the winners, this platform automatically creates a folder within the desktop, that folder will serve so that all the files that you insert in it, will be stored immediately within the cloud, so you would not have to There should be no website to perform this storage. OneDrive also has the online document editing function, you can avoid any type of document with any format, plus another impressive thing that you can edit your documents with the collaboration of your colleagues in real time, they can modify the document together and they can insert information into it without any problem. The display of images within this platform is also positive, you can open any image of any format without downloading it.
NegativeOne of the main negatives of OneDrive is that it is quite expensive software, its integrity with the Microsoft 365 system makes this software one of the most expensive to generate cloud storage. Another negative feature is that a rather slow shower when opening in its web version, like the Outlook platform, when you try to open One Drive from the web page, this will take approximately five minutes to load correctly, since You must load all the data you have stored in the cloud, and this can cause the performance of the computer to be directly affected. I would like the opening of OneDrive in the web version to be much faster.

Excellent cloud storage service at a low cost.
Updated: Nov 18 2022SummaryOneDrive has many features that I have mistreated and received attention in a positive way. I consider that this platform has helped me a lot in my business Almita of the real estate company, since it has allowed me to store a large number of files without having to pay so much money for each gigabyte contracted , since this platform is capable of offering a large storage space quite extensive without stopping high prices. This platform has behaved like that, it has provided service samples of its life and immediate file download, plus, I am going to provide constant security for all my files, with a disguised key and two-step security . I consider continuing to use this platform for the business sphere and for the personal sphere, since it has helped me in both ways, I have been able to protect all kinds of files, share them with my colleagues through a shared folder with a direct base, despite the fact that there are several things to improve within the platform, I think it is a service that is very worthwhile, I also think they have to implement a service to see how many people have accessed a specific file.
PositiveOneDrive has been a service that has helped a lot to store all my documents and files, that men pay for which start using this platform is because it has an immediate interaction synchronization with the Office 365 system, this is one of the First things that I love about this platform, this fantastic integration, since this helps me to avoid all kinds of documents online, also, I can edit documents collaboratively, getting help from my employees or colleagues, this Office platform 365 days an excellent integration with the cloud storage system, therefore, all the documents that I upload to the cloud, I will be able to edit them immediately with my work team, all the changes in the viewer in real time and that platform offer to the mind necessary to complement the edition of the document. In addition, I have loved the free version of this platform, even though I use this version for a couple of days, I will issue you that this version gave me good access to all storage functions, I was able to edit documents, view images in the cloud, unlimited upload and download files, quickly upgraded the paid version to get more cloud storage space. Another thing that I liked is the integrated security that it has for each of the files, it offers me an encryption key for each file that is stored, in addition, this function is implemented in the free version and in the paid version.
NegativeWhen using this platform, one of the main negative things that I noticed is the fact that you cannot link more than two accounts within the same platform, for example, if you want to open two cloud storage spaces that are located in different accounts. , you will have to first upload to one account and then close it to open the other, there is no possibility to link two cloud storage accounts on this platform. The second negative thing I noticed about the services of this platform is that currently there is no way to open archives within it, for example, if a large number of archives are stored within the cloud, you cannot open them within it. , you should fully download it to your computer to be able to view it, it would be great to be able to view the files inside a compressed file, because if I'm looking for something specific, this way I can find it quickly without having to download the entire compressed file. In addition, I also do not like the way in which you can view Videos stored in the cloud, without downloading them, you can have a preview of each video, however the quality of them is not so good, which forces you to download the video to watch on your computer.

Reliable file synchronization
Date: May 31 2021SummaryOnedrive is good. One installs it and forgets about it. It just runs quietly and (mostly) reliably in the background. On rare occasion, if a synchronization problem occurs, they are resolved quickly. Then there are some that just don't resolve and one may need to recreate the document. Yet, it is very, very rare.
Positive-Runs silently in the background

OneDrive shows us the best storage option in the cloud
Date: Mar 18 2021SummaryIt is ideal for storage and retrieval of all types of files, it also works well for collaboration. Its upload speed is acceptable and its storage capacity is ample. Microsoft OneDrive has helped us solve organizational problems in our work environment, it gives us a platform where we can easily upload files / documents quickly and securely, keep them organized by folders and access them from anywhere using any device whenever the need arises. Its upload speed and storage capacity are perfect for us.
PositiveIt is a great platform that allows you to create shared team libraries where business advisors can create documents, add notebooks and attachments that can be shared with several other advisors on the team. It allows restricted access to only those people who have been allowed to use that library.
NegativeOneDrive can only help create documents that are from Microsoft and no other tool or application can integrate with it. The shared libraries created require authentication to access and it is quite a cumbersome process. It is possible to share data, but the other person can also access it when they receive a link in their mail.

OneDrive can be integrated to several cloud services
Date: Mar 20 2021SummaryWe think that Microsoft OneDrive fulfills all the functions required to be a stable cloud storage system, and thanks to the potential of its API it is possible to integrate and connect data across many other platforms. Using OneDrive, files can be shared on both desktop and mobile workspaces without any complications.
PositiveConnecting OneDrive to services such as google drive is possible, so we can create double backups of our information for little cost. This helps that in the long run the need to redo lost data is unnecessary when synchronizing our computer or cell phone with the cloud. Within OneDrive we can save all the information of our work projects, regardless of the format.
NegativeThere are some applications apparently integrable with OneDrive that do not let us export information to the cloud. One of them is Slack, whose files we cannot send to OneDrive to create backup copies. Apart from this, we have not found any other usage problem that would make us desist from using OneDrive as a backup service.

OneDrive provides secure cloud storage for your documents
Date: Mar 25 2021SummaryOneDrive is used as an enterprise storage solution across the organization. Some departments use other solutions, such as Dropbox. However, OneDrive applies to all employees. Provide secure cloud storage for employee documents, which can be accessed from multiple devices, such as desktops, mobile devices and tablets at any time. It also facilitates document sharing within the company and with external personnel.
PositiveAllow the browser interface to process documents. When working through a browser, the document is automatically saved. Microsoft Office 365 is a widely used main office productivity suite. OneDrive provides documents saved from Office desktop applications such as Word and Excel. You can also create documents from the mobile app.
NegativeI have performance issues when working with documents from mobile apps. However, I rarely deal with Office documents on my phone, so this is not the main problem. Saving documents directly to OneDrive from the Office 365 desktop app can sometimes be difficult. I ran into an issue where the local copy was not syncing with OneDrive. To store access and organize files or information, allow access and share/collaborate files with others. Lacks the ability to display certain documents (such as .dwg files, etc.). This is an excellent mobile application that needs to upload or access stored files anytime, anywhere. Well suited for recording inspections and digital reporting.

OneDrive is the perfect document backup for MS 365 Users
Date: Aug 20 2021SummaryOneDrive is a no-brainer for MS 365 users. If you have an MS 365 subscription then I can't think of a reason not to turn it on and use for your PC back up. If you need a company, division, or department level document repository/library (that isn't used for active collaboration) then it works really well. I find I use OneDrive less for project specific team collaboration as Teams and therefore, SharePoint seems to work better.
PositiveOneDrive is easy to setup on a Windows PC and works perfectly. I like that it auto backs up all my documents on my hard drive in case my laptop has problems...which it has multiple times. But each time after my fixed laptop is returned I can easily restore all my documents from OneDrive into my newly fixed machine. Without it, there is always a concern about losing documents. Additionally, with the OneDrive app, I can access my documents from either of my mobile phones (iOS and Android) or my Chromebook or another family members Windows PC.
NegativeThis is a tough one. OneDrive is great because it works seamlessly and I really don't have to think about it. The only thing I can possibly think of is that when compared to DropBox which we also use, OneDrive seems to have a few less user friendly collaboration features and the support isn't as good. Dropbox is more hyper-focused on document backup and needs to drive collaboration from their solution since they don't have an equivalent solution like MS SharePoint to compete with.

Lower price and higher storage capacity offered by OneDrive
Date: Mar 29 2021SummaryIt is one of the most outstanding cloud data storage applications on the market, for its security against any intruder and its storage limit capacity that exceeds many of its competitors. But it is notable that its customers are at risk of data loss and subjected to having an Internet connection to use OneDrive for a prolonged period of time.
PositiveIt is quite useful for a company or a private individual to use OneDrive to store information in the cloud. It has a storage capacity of 7GB in its free version compared to others. Similarly, files can be synchronized on any device that has this application to facilitate data sharing.
NegativeOne of the most notable limitations is the continuous use of the Internet to access these files or synchronized information. In addition, it does not have a tool for restoring items deleted by platform errors or accidentally, which puts its customers at risk of losing all their information.

OneDrive fulfils all our storage needs
Date: Apr 02 2021SummaryOneDrive has many advantages that can be used even from its free paid version, and having 50GB for as little as 4 dollars per month makes it one of the cheapest cloud management and file sharing software available today. It is also a viable option if you are going to work with mobile phones.
PositiveSaving our data in the cloud is easy if we use Microsoft OneDrive as an implementation tool. The platform allows us to adapt different formats, so that we can create as many backups as possible not only in a certain format, but in several. This is because it is more useful in case we need to export information to some software.
NegativeOneDrive cannot be adapted to the services that we usually use for streaming, which makes it difficult to make backup copies of our presentations in the cloud in case we want to save them for future visualisations. OneDrive is also not a good service for handling large files.

The speed at which work should be possible utilizing this is extremely high. It is an exceptionally compelling instrument to store every one of the significant reports regardless of the size of the document and I can get to them rapidly from any gadget.
