File synchronisation across devices is reliable, and the ability to co‑author documents directly in Office apps improves productivity. It also works well for secure file sharing within an organisational environment. > > **Cons**: File organisation and navigation can become confusing, especially when working across multiple folders, shared libraries, and synced locations. There can also be occasional issues with sync delays or conflicts when multiple users update files offline or simultaneously. Managing permissions and understanding ownership across shared files is not always straightforward. > > Overall, OneDrive provides a strong and dependable experience for document storage and collaboration within the Microsoft ecosystem. It is particularly effective for organisations already using Microsoft 365, as it fits naturally into existing workflows. While some usability and governance challenges exist, it remains a reliable tool for day‑to‑day file management. ----- ### "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. 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 Sometimes issues with syncing Not ideal for cross platform use > > Overall, one drive is great. I like the interface and I like that it interacts well with windows 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. ----- ### "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. ----- ### "Our Real-World Experience using OneDrive within our Non-Profit Charity" — 5.0/5 > **Mark** | *6 June 2026* | Museums & Institutions | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The biggest advantage for us is that OneDrive gives us a simple way to securely share CRM software updates amongst our PCs, PDF documents and internal files between Board members, IT volunteers and wider volunteers without relying on USB sticks, E-mail attachments or people working from different file versions. The fact that it integrates naturally with the rest of Microsoft 365 also makes collaboration and access management much easier for a volunteer-led 100% non-profit like ours. > > **Cons**: We haven't really found many major downsides ourselves, although like any shared file platform, a few initial permissions niggles, folder structures and file organisation that still needed managed properly or things could have become messy over time; a particular issue when volunteers come and go over time, or people work from different devices. > > Overall, our experience with OneDrive has been extremely positive for our charity. It's a simple, reliable way to share CRM software updates for the admin and membership volunteer team, plus PDF documents and internal files across Board members and non-board volunteers. That reduces reliance on email attachments and keeps people working from the same versions of files (we learned that the hard way\!). Like any shared platform it still needs managed properly, but for us it has largely just worked. ----- Page: 1 / 512\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/161304/onedrive?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/161304/onedrive) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
