Disappointing, hard to use, unreliable

Likeliness to Recommend

3 /10

What differentiates Microsoft OneDrive for Business from other similar products?

While Microsoft OneDrive for Business offers integration with Microsoft Office applications and decent storage options, it is not without its shortcomings. It has an unintuitive user interface, which is particularly frustrating, especially considering how simple Google Drive is. There is no sync reliability, so there is inconsistencies across devices. Plus, it takes forever. The slower file synchronization speed compared to competitors is a huge hindrance.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I'm sitting here trying to think of something but I honestly have nothing. I liked that I at least had SOMETHING to use to file sharing, but it was still a garbage experience.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Sync reliability. I was constantly frustrated over syncing problems, like delays in files updating across devices and sometimes instances of data loss. It impacted productivity and was concerning. I need a reliable and trustworthy platform for crucial data storage and access.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Save your time and money and use Google Drive instead. For a more efficient and user-friendly experience, GDrive is it. It also tends to have more reliable sync capabilities, ensuring that your files are updated in real-time across all devices with minimal issues. This reliability is crucial for both personal and business use where data consistency is key.

Pros

  • Client Friendly Policies
  • Altruistic

Cons

  • Slower Product Innovation
  • Less Performance Enhancing
  • Less Productive
