What differentiates Microsoft OneDrive for Business from other similar products?

High level grade security is a major strong point of Onedrive. This is a major point of differential between Onedrive and close alternatives I have tried.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Integration with Office 365 applications, is my favorite aspect of Onedrive. By integrating with Office 365, I am able to save data from my favorite Microsoft productivity tools such as Word ,Excel etc into Onedrive.

What do you dislike most about this product?

While Onedrive does a great job to integrate well with other Microsoft products, it is average when it comes to integrating with the larger group of softwares we use at work, which are non-Microsoft products.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

While Onedrive is fantastic for teams who value security. Its limitations in areas such as collaboration is quite visible, which is why not every department in my organization adopts it.
