What differentiates Microsoft OneDrive for Business from other similar products?

Before using Microsoft OneDrive I was only using Google Drive and Drop Box to save and share my files. Once I purchased my Office 365 package I started using OneDrive more and more each time I saved or shared client files. Everything in OneDrive seems to happens with such ease and without having to look around for what exactly you are looking for. I always had troubles saving and finding my files with Google Drive and with Drop Box as well. I always know exactly where I am saving my files to in OneDrive and every aspect take just seconds to implement so I can get back to my client work.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Uploading files up to 100gb is one of my favorite aspects of OneDrive.That and the ease of sharing filies within many other applications such as Microsoft Teams or SharePoint.

What do you dislike most about this product?

I have not to date found anything that I dislike so far about Microsoft OneDrive. It has been a stable and accurate addition to my day to day business operations.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Whether you use other Microsoft products or not definitely give Microsoft OneDrive a try. The continuous file experience, ease of sharing and uploading files to other products, size of files that you can send and the storage space that OneDrive offers you to save all of your files is a great deal for such a low monthly/yearly price. It has been a major asset to my business and I couldn't see going back to other file sharing program or even trying a new one at the point. I am genuinely happy with my purchase each and every day. New hookups, no hang-ups just pure performance.
