OneDrive has messed me up more times than I can say! Syncing with several devices has made a literal chaotic jumble that unraveling the mess is a nightmare. I end up with Documents/Documents/Documents - Pictures/Pictures, duplicates of everything. Two camera rolls, etc. Also, collections create duplicates, then you try making albums...in short, organizing is a headache, and I've lost many folders and files depending on which device I'm using, and if I make changes from my PC or online. My internet bites and in my wooded area cannot be online like the rest of the free world. No high speed internet, and I'm on a metered, slow network.

I've been using one drive for almost 2 years and honestly it sucks, I hate that whenever I open my task manager I see one drive using all of my cpu.

Went with Google 1 about an hour before watching this video. I've been using One Drive on my corporate computer for over a year. I think I made the right choice. You know Moores Law. This video was uploaded two years ago. Also got KZbin Premium

What happens when I delete media from my phone? Will they be deleted from my Onedrive or Google Drive as well?

OneDrive's zip download speed sucks basically. You try to download some files and folder and it creates a zip which would take million years to download even if you got 1 GBPS internet speed. Google handles this way better. That's why despite being a 365 user I have to share files with people via Google Drive and not OneDrive. Wish Microsoft would look into this

Google drive let's you back up any folders but OneDrive only allows you to back up Desktop, Documents and Picturea folders. Although you can back up other folders too by changing the folder location.

What folder am I unable to backup with OneDrive? I've seen no limitations.

@armadxc 2 жыл бұрын

@@theyetti90 Microsoft only let's you backup Desktop, Docuemtns & Pictuires folders only. All other cloud providers has an option called "Add Folder". Although you can backup any folder's on OneDrive but you have to change the file path of the original folder to OneDrive. It shoudn't be this difficult .

@plamenstefanov5462 Жыл бұрын

@@armadxc you are right. Onedrive is basically sharing the folder in itself with your PC, but is not backing up folders from the PC, while Gdrive allows both. But there is an easy solution. Open onedrive from the PC, not via browser, drag a folder from the PC and drop it in the drive folder. It will be synced in a while. Work in that folder. When you want to stop the back up, just drag the folder and drop it out anywhere on your PC, and the folder is moving fast as a folder between internal directories of your PC. That's the way you can achieve the same result as with Gdrive. As a lawyer I work mainly with documents and I need them safe whatever happens with my PC. I started using Onedrive because it's 50% cheaper in my country and the email is not taking space in the drive.

So there is no way to automatically sync Google drive folders on several computers like OneDrive does? Maybe i'll have to look into Dropbox too

I will probably use Google drive cuz of the pricing, however don't forget that the 15 gig is combined with Gmail and all Google cloud services

One drive has just messy smartphone apps. No possibility to classify the photos. Just a timeline. Even clean-up feature doesn't work on my android phone. The UX is awfull. Reallyvsurprising weak performance. You can't use the photos afterwards to create something actually. It's a pure storage, not a system. Except good security reputation and low price foe complete package with office 364 it has no advantage.

One drive really screwed up the desk-top of one of my PCs without my knowledge or approval. Somehow, it copied a desktop from a windows 10 PC onto a Windows 11 PC, complete with shortcuts to files and Apps which didn't work and weren't even on the other PC. It took me ages to sort that one out.

OneDrive's Files-On-Demand sucks. it will always take a long time for any large files that has to be downloaded first. You can also never play big video files from the cloud. It has to be downloaded first before viewing. I never had these issues with Google Drive.

You can mark folders and files to stay on your local storage permanently. (In both services.)

I want to turn off all automatic featurres of ONE DRIVE and use it as a remote logical drive that I can manually move or copy files to from my physical hard drives on my desktop using FILE EXPLORER in Win 10. I am having trouble turning off the auto synch features and have found that there is a hidden directory on my desktop hard drive that contains a copy of everything I have stored on the Cloud Onedrive. This is using up way too much disk space on my desktop Logical C drive. You may be wondering why I am doing this and the reason is that I have two physical hard drives on my desktop and a total of eight Logical hard drives. This is to help organize all my files going back 20 years etc.. So you see, I really just want a remote logical drive for backup of my files to be copied only manually.

I'll take Box or Mega over both. It's called simplicity and non-interference. I need clouds to stash stuff including backups. No need for collaboration. No need for integration. No need for continuous fractional backups. No need for the problems & headaches One Drive causes. The Google security is not trustworthy. Simple decision.

I agree. I use PCloud for the bulk of my files, however I'm still stuck trying my hardest to get out of google drive right now, since their document search functionality is unbeatable, and I do need to share a few things here and there... damn...

This whole video seems biased towards 365 (especially the security section): it's full of untrue statements in favor for MSFT. But both respect security the exact SAME WAY. NO DIFFERENCE! The prism argument is MOOT.. since NSA claims to have access to many big player, not only apple and google. Microsoft too is to be suspected. (if you read the article correctly you would know that it's NOT ONLY google and Apple.) Secondly there is no PROOF from NSA, for the "claim". Also if the law requires companies to hand it over, they MUST give it. FOR ALL COMPANIES having data in the USA. Luckely EU residents don't have to fear for the USA agencies, since those agencies are by multiple LAWS (e.g. GDPR), forbidden to snoop into data from those residents, since the providers MUST store the EU residents data in EU physical locations. (Including Google, Apple and Microsoft)
