Microsoft OneDrive

OneDrive, developed by Microsoft, is an online cloud storage service designed to facilitate seamless file management and collaboration. This platform enables users to engage in concurrent document editing, web-based document modification, as well as folder creation and sharing.

For individuals utilizing Microsoft's suite of productivity tools, such as students and staff, OneDrive is an integral component of the Microsoft 365@APU Subscription package. This subscription encompasses not only access to the Microsoft Office suite but also grants users a substantial storage capacity of 5TB within the OneDrive cloud storage service.

One of the hallmark features of OneDrive is its capacity to maintain synchronization between locally stored files on a user's computer and the files stored within the cloud. This synchronization extends across multiple devices, including laptops, smartphones, and tablets. As a result, users are afforded the convenience of accessing their files from virtually any location.
