## Reviews

### "OneDrive, does what is says on the tin" — 5.0/5

> **Stephen** | *23 June 2026* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Built into Windows and works smoothly with Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook.&#10;Easy auto-save and syncing if you already use Microsoft accounts.
> 
> **Cons**: Works best when you have internet connection. Difficult to use remotely, for example on a train&#10;&#10;Sometimes issues with syncing &#10;&#10;Not ideal for cross platform use
> 
> Overall, one drive is great. I like the interface and I like that it interacts well with windows&#10; &#10;It makes it easy to share files with others in the business

-----

### "Great Product" — 5.0/5

> **Graham Brian** | *18 June 2026* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: That it comes free with Microsoft 365 and can be shared with family and friends. It has a good interface for uploading documents and is fast and effective.
> 
> **Cons**: There is a limit of 1Tb per person. If it could be expanded like Google Drive it would make it more useful.
> 
> My overall experience with OneDrive is good. I use it for storing documents and photos. I have use of the software at home and work.

### "Great functionality, lacking some management visibility and features" — 4.0/5

> **connor** | *18 March 2026* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ease of sharing documents internally, and externally depending on Org settings and policies. Having native integrations and tie-ins to local file explorer allow ease of use
> 
> **Cons**: From an administrative perspective, it leaves a lot to be desired - especially after working with on premise solutions such as Active Directory, which provides clear and intuitive management of organisational objects and permissions
> 
> It provides great functionality for end users and alleviates some requirement from IT professionals to roll out file sharing resources and platforms. It leaves a lot to be desired in relation to it's 'cousin' - i.e on premise active directory file and user management. It overlaps a lot with Sharepoint functionality and having the sharepoint app renamed some time ago to Onedrive for Business causes a lot of confusion for both end users and junior adminsitrators

-----

### "A Solid and Secure File Management Solution for Teams" — 4.0/5

> **Hadi** | *23 April 2026* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: OneDrive enables incredibly easy storing and sharing files which comes handy especially if most of your work is with Microsoft products. Device to device syncing works without any hiccups and with SharePoint, Teams and Office apps, you get a very nice flow of work for single and group projects. Being able to see past versions is a great feature you can simply return to an earlier file version or reverse the changes that you didn't mean to make. When it comes to support, having the capability to grant permissions, share with security, and keep the same level of user access at all times - are very important aspects from an operational point of view.
> 
> **Cons**: There is always a chance of syncing conflicts, mainly when several users are working on big files at the same time. Sometimes the desktop sync client stops working and you have to restart it manually. The division of storage between OneDrive and SharePoint may be a bit puzzling for users who don't have much technical knowledge, and at times the differences between personal and shared libraries are also not immediately apparent. Aside from that, upload speeds can fluctuate.
> 
> Generally, OneDrive has proven to be a reliable cloud storage and collaboration tool that is a perfect match for regular work patterns. In my capacity as a technical product support specialist, it has become a tool that greatly helps in sharing files, handling documentation and facilitating collaborations across various teams. Thanks to the seamless integration with Microsoft 365, team members can edit documents together without any hindrances. Although there are a few issues from time to time with synchronization, the software is still very reliable, safe, and powerful for use by both individuals and organisational use.

### "OneDrive- Easy and efficient." — 5.0/5

> **Sam** | *9 March 2026* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We use this everyday as a virtual tool for different people in the business to access shared files and as well as different teams to upload any files that are relevant to theem so they can all be downloaded from OneDrive as opposed to be saved on each desktop. This also means documents being used are the most current as only the updated are stored here and no-on is using anything that is out of date. It is simple to use and we have different folders for teams and for shared documents. It is easy to search within one folder or just the entire One Drive itself. We have a lot saved onto there and the question of storage had never arisen, neither has the need to contact customer service.
> 
> **Cons**: The main issues we have with OneDrive are internal. I guess on occasion someone has accidentally saved a change (as when you close the document it sdaves) but that is why we keep back ups.
> 
> OneDrive is a tool we use everyday to store a large amount of documents used across the business. It is an efficient way of doing this and it's easy access and search features enable us to retrieve files quickly.
