Cloud storage that give you facilities to sync your files with actual folders in your physical storage.
Other alternatives like MEGA and google Drive are way better.

It is integrated into windows so that is quite good, but the complimentary storage that is given is not much compared to others.
Pricing on storage is not that great, MEGA and Google drive are better.

Even though I enjoyed using Onedrive because of its ease of use and easy setup on PC I had to switch to an alternative that offered me more storage space for free and more storage space at a premium compared to Onedrive.
Onedrive is easy to use and setup on any windows PC. The intergration with Windows OS is outstanding compared to other alternatives (Google Drive, Dropbox, Mega etc)
As compared to other cloud storage service providers, Onedrive is a bit expensive. It offers only 5GB free storage whilst Google gives you 3x more (15GB).

L'integrazione con gli altri software Microsoft ha consentito di facilitare numerose dinamiche aziendali.Forse non è il miglior software di questo genere, ma integrato ad altri (Google Drive, Dropbox, Mega...) è molto valido.
OneDrive è senza dubbio un'ottima piattaforma di storage. Il vantaggio significativo è l'appartenenza al "mondo" Microsoft che permette un'integrazione facilitata con gli altri prodotti MS.
Non ho riscontrati grandi inconvenienti.

OneDrive is an excellent cloud storage solution that offers its full potential when used in conjunction with Microsoft Office. Sinc it comes at no extra cost with an Office license, is the way to go for most cost-conscious businesses.
The main advantage for us is that OneDrive is bundled at no extra cost with your Microsoft 365 license offering space starting at 1TB. Also, the possibility of starting a new Microsoft Office document from within OneDrive is a welcome addition that relies upon the online version of Word, Excel and PowerPoint. This saves time, as this is possible across devices and platforms. If your Office files are backed up in OneDrive you can also explore past versions of a document, and see who did changes to it. Tags in photos are also a welcome addition that helps make sense of large catalogues of image assets.
The only con I see is that the free version is too limiting with 5GB. Other services like Google Drive give you 15GB in the free tier, Mega goes up to 50GB.

It does the job if you are locked in the Microsoft ecosystem. Otherwise, there isn't any reason to stick to it.
It is well integrated into Windows 10 (made by Microsoft, duh). Fast and easy setup. Sharing files is a breeze.
Only 5GB of cloud storage for free tier. Pricing for their 100GB is $2 per month, while MEGA is 400GB for ~$5.50. Interface is not as "fresh" as Google Drive.

One Drive is fast, secure and with a high level of integration, making it a great option for those who are willing to invest some money in cloud storage.
OneDrive almost always uses all my internet bandwidth, since Microsoft's servers are among the best on the internet today. Another advantage of being a Microsoft product is that OneDrive has full integration with the Windows ecosystem, especially with Office. For the user who is willing to pay to have more storage, OneDrive has the best cost-benefit among the great cloud storage services.
For free users, OneDrive is not very attractive, since it offers little storage space, and there are more generous services when it comes to free gigabytes, such as Google Drive and Mega.

It's a good software, much better than google drive. I would highly recommend this software if anyone needs to upload files which they want to share or backup.
One drive is an online cloud storage software which allows individuals to upload files online via online storage drives. One drive provides you a large amount of storage space to upload larger than usual files and gives you the ability to buy more if necessary. I would highly recommend this to anyone, especially since it's owned by Microsoft; a well known and trusted company.
It doesn't provide much features like mega and dropbox do. It also lacks a design which looks good. You must also pay for more storage once you're all out which can be seen as money grabbing.

For a fair while it kept my files in sync and was a good solution.
I had OneDrive, DropBox and Mega installed on my PC and only OneDrive failed to sync after a period of time. I reached out to support and they basically said there was nothing they could do. I abandoned the platform.

The service of backup of attachments sent by mail allowed me to obtain files that I thought lost
Automatically organize the file types or you can organize them creating folders, you can share folders or files in specific, you can create public links to them, to have a team with some microsoft will help you to create backups of your photos, videos, files, etc.
Compared with other services, the storage capacity is low (only 5GB), For some time now the services of outlook.com have been slow compared to other services such as MEGA or Google Drive, it does not seem to be internet speed or lack of resources on the pc, which makes it somewhat cumbersome to look for some file especially if you have a lot of information

I tried OneDrive approximately and never thought that it was going to become an important part of my day to day. It is basically a mega cloud, where all the information you want to store is stored. As a student, I spend a lot of my time at the university, so at any time I need to access information that I left on my home computer, because with OneDrive, synchronizing my pc, with my cell phone, I can access it comfortably and fast anywhere to all the information I have stored in my cloud. It is quite worth paying for this great application.
The only problem or complaint I could say about One Drive is that the space that allows you to store in the free version, seems a bit scarce, but that is a very personal opinion, the rest an excellent service.

I delete the files. It's just another wetransfer, don't take it as a cloud because you'll wake up without cracking. I do not recommend if you have important documents. I lost my pictures, documents, everything.
I liked the desktop app, but they will delete the files if you store them there, I don't recommend it.
They will delete all your files. It only stores files for a short period of time. Better use Google Drive, OneDrive or other clouds so you don't risk your files.e

MEGA is a software that I use on a weekly basis due to the fact that I regularly use Google Drive instead, the HCI makes the software really easy to use as a second option.
There is a preview of what is the name of the folder on MEGA when it is shared to other persons, so myself and others can have an idea of how much information is stored.
If my free 5GB of storage is full and I need more storage space, I'm forced to either pay for a Premium plan or store the other content on other software like Google Drive and Microsoft OneDrive. And in most cases, I'm not able to pay for the Premium plan.

MEGA offre un'ampia quantità di spazio di archiviazione gratuito a tutti gli utenti. Mi permette di conservare una vasta quantità di file senza dover preoccuparti di superare i limiti di archiviazione e/o dover aggiornare a offerte Premium.
Il client di MEGA sul PC è molto lento a parer mio e la risoluzione dei problemi dal team di sviluppo non è abbastanza efficace. Un'altro importante inconveniente è dovuto al fatto che MEGA è un servizio di archiviazione online, il che significa aver bisogno di una connessione internet sempre per caricare, ad esempio a differenza su OneDrive è possibile caricare offline e alla connessione i dati vengono caricati automaticamente...
