Which tool when for files: SharePoint, OneDrive, or Microsoft Teams

[@jumpto365]

Next you'll want to sync those OneDrive, SharePoint, and Teams files for easier and off-line access. Here's how to do it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ap2tiYl_ftx6frs

[@PawlSpring]

Microsoft should hire you. My eyes are bloodshot from all the reading of MS documentation to make sense of this, yet you communicated everything I needed in under 8 minutes.

[@cassg545]

Totally agree! I've been searching everywhere to find a way for an external client to upload or share a biweekly, file with a specific employee in my organization. Can I simply have my employee share a OneDrive folder with that client?

[@rolandd5397]

I totally agree as well. I have been searching for someone to explain onedrive and sharepoint in simple and concise terms for the admistrator point of view.

[@sandeeepkiran1130]

Lmao yes. Fuck microsoft for making things so goddamn confusing and unintuitive. Imagine being so bad, others make videos just to talk about how to use you.

[@arthurmanganas1768]

I agree this is really explaining concepts clearly and concisely. Thank you.

[@hugobritotech]

microsoft don't pay enough what him deserve, better working with consulting

[@danielzablotsky2207]

That was a really clear and straightforward explanation. I can't believe it took me months to find someone who can explain the relationship between OneDrive, SharePoint, and Teams. Thanks Matt!

[@janerada01]

Hallelujah! A clear layout of the three, what they are for, and how to use them. All in under 8 minutes. THANK YOU!

[@vanessanosotti2647]

I’ve watched a few videos but yours is the one that really made me understand why to use OneDrive vs SharePoint. The permissions nightmare and employees leaving the company really put things into perspective! Thank you!

[@unacceptableone]

after many hours now of experimenting and watching, YOU are the one who makes sense! 50 gold stars! Thank you.

[@TheeMollyDodd]

FINALLY!! Thank you, Matt! This is the BEST explanation of how OneDrive, SharePoint, and Teams work together. I've been struggling to find files since our working group started using Teams. THANK YOU!

[@pcbdesigned9072]

The only clear video about this I found until now.

[@beckyzwhite]

Finally! Finally, someone who explains this OneDrive/SharePoint/Teams muddle in plain English! I actually understood everything he said. Thank you!

[@MariaKnows]

The reason why Im here because my supervisor asked me on Teams today which one should I use: O-Drive or Sharepoint. I answered O-drive cos I dont what a Sharepoint is, until I searched the meaning of it on KZbin and it came it out your video. It all makes sense to me in 7 mins only. I’ve already voted and I could reverse that. Thanks for this

[@YmcaInt-WorldYMCA]

8 minutes to understand EVERYTHING I watched tons of videos on the subject but yours is just a MASTER PIECE ME,WE,US at 07:01 is absolutely brilliant! The infographic are amazing,

[@swod1]

Amazing. Thank you sir. Crystal clear now. OneDrive - One Person Sharepoint/Teams - sharing + teams

[@michellechartrand2888]

I work for a department of the Canadian Federal Government and for years (ok, decades) we've been on the basic Windows/ personal and shared network drives/ RDIMS combination. Since the pandemic hit and everyone was forced to work from home virtually overnight things have changed. We've recently implemented OneDrive to replace our personal drives, Sharepoint will be implemented in this fiscal year to replace group drives/Intranet and eventually I think GCDocs to replace RDIMS (records and document information management system). My team is varied in age and technological experience and tomorrow I've got to give a tutorial on OneDrive. I'm going to share your video as a great overview of the whole system, and I'm definitely following you for further help. The "Dummies" series of books is my go-to for reference so I'll be looking for your guide on O365! Thank you for providing clear and relatable guidance.

[@DavidJones-tx4yf]

Finally! A short and succinct video that covers off on the fundamental differences and just ets the message across, for non-techs. Great job! Just one suggestion. Me, We, Us could be better termed as Me, We, Others or Me, We, Them. The difference between We and Us is too vague or narrow. Others or Them gives a better indication of the publishing nature of SharePoint communication sites.

[@shaneduff34]

After having a 600+ person company moving from GSuite to 365, this is the first video I've found that was clear and easy to digest. Sharing with others to ensure they don't waste the time I did to find it...and you've got an enjoy troy sign in the background! That made my day being born and raised in Troy, NY! Thanks Matt, awesome work!

[@jumpto365]

Given your last name, I have a feeling a family member of yours was my babysitter back in the day. Unless there are lots of Duffs in Troy. Which I don't think there are!

[@shaneduff34]

@@jumpto365 Ha! We are the only Duffs in Troy!

[@shaneduff34]

Small world...your video was just shared with our entire team in advance of the 365 training we're about to get into. Wish we had hired you to train the team here

[@robinbrotherhood6786]

This was the first explanation of SharePoint, OneDrive and Teams that made sense of when to use what platform -- and it was fast. Thank you!!

[@alanjrobertson]

Superb summary, thank you Matt. One thing I've noticed is that moving files from OneDrive to SharePoint seems slower than expected, even for very small files - uploading direct to either is quick but moving is slow, not sure if you've noticed this too. The only wee extra nugget I can think of adding is around adding a shortcut to a SharePoint site to OneDrive for ease of access.

[@edtignor4235]

Thank you!!! I'm a 1 man shop and I was trying to figure out why I needed all of these other tools... I really don't. Lol. Gives me peace knowing I'm not missing out on something.

[@adamrogers2426]

The infograph is great. The ME, WE, and US. Hit the nail on the head.

[@brycee.maryott8802]

Showing videos like this to the RIGHT people are key to making organizations grow healthier.

[@side54723]

As you suggest greatly, we use those tools this way. One more use case though : To collaborate with somebody (or many) i usually dont collaborate with, so i dont create a team for that, i send him the file via private chat. Once the file is done i move it to the right location. Those guidance has to be put into balance with org that control who can create teams, sharepoint. The process of creating a collaboration space being slower, people might use teams chat more for collaboration (one drive at the back)

[@jumpto365]

Valid.

[@Kate98755]

i have webinars to advertise to staff…from what you just said “share point “ seems like another option. You explain complex information so clearly! thank you &

[@peterdavies9277]

About to delve into SharePoint for the first time. This video was great to explain where it all sits - loved the bit about Me = Onedrive, We = Teams, Us - SharePoint. Sometimes the simplest explanation nails it in one. Thanks.

[@marjeanperhot1639]

Thank you much! I am feeling less fearful of using SharePoint, OneDrive and Teams! Keep up the great work!

[@fazzadielle]

And what about storage? What do you think about store either large file volumes or everiday files on Sharepoint, as a replacement for File Server, for example?

[@jumpto365]

That’s pretty much the situation I’m talking about in the video. If it’s for a team, use SharePoint. If it’s your stuff, use OneDrive.

[@Iamsummersmommy]

Me, We, Us - best description I've heard!

[@terrydownton5748]

Best explanation of one drive and SharePoint that I have seen. Well done.

[@Jepper333]

this video is like... the holy grail to me when it comes to understanding this topic! thank you so much!!

[@davinh.]

I'm planning to move my company to the Microsoft ecosystem and quite perplexed by the subtle differences between the two apps. Crazy that your seven-minute explanation provides more clarity than the official sources. Many thanks!

[@jackrogers1115]

Thats because Microsoft want you to have either an msp manage this for you or have someone internal that has a background in supporting Microsoft systems. If office365 is setup or used properly its a nightmare. This will also cause them a headache

[@adammorris7458]

Great video I will be using the infographic to explain to the greater team. As they are struggling with where they should save things.

[@volunteerresources7662]

Such a helpful video! But the "document circle of life" link in your description isn't working for me. Is there a new link?

[@sbrutcher]

Thanks for this. My users find the O365 ecosystem confusing. Hoping this info will help.

This was the best explanation ever. Thank you. Me we us

[@WaldoPepper8]

Thank you very much for this Conzept verview without Marketing-BS. I feel relieved and happy to get a little more understanding how this should be used. THNK YOU

[@neilgoodman2885]

Dear Mr. Jumpto: Critique - Nice and clear/clean explanation for those who are already in the arena, I needed basics. Your audio needs more "upfront" and less "hardness of the walls" to stop the reverb. Put up bats and use a lapel mic up closer to your mouth. You may also need a non-usb mic that is used for professional audio along with some additional equipment to feed the computer. I do like your studio, however because it is real. Respectfully, NHG

[@jenndavin]

Very helpful. Maybe a "day in the life" of using Onedrive, Sharepoint thru Teams would be cool--a working scenario that could be used to train those just getting into the whole process--a best practices for a good common use model. Maybe?

[@sanfordcs]

Great, succinct communication with rich information. Thanks a bunch! Now off to how can you apply permissions to Teams documents like you can in SharePoint. For example, allowing a user to access Team but denying him/her access to specific folders in the Documents section. I can do this in SharePoint, but scratch my head in getting these granular permissions in Teams.

[@jumpto365]

In the Team, click the Files tab then click Open on SharePoint. Your Teams files are in SharePoint, so you have all the same control.

[@owennyama789]

Have had a tough time trying to differentiate between the two applications and you've just made a very easy way for me to understand in your explanation. Thanks

[@susanbelding5806]

Very helpful. Thank you. I am teaching myself SharePoint, and I need a good tutorial on how a Team Site library interacts with a Communication Site library. If you update a document in a Team site, how do you "transfer" the final pdf version to the Communication Site Library?

[@dg-hughes]

4:00 I think is very important to remember. Once someone's OneDrive is gone so are the files shared or not. Imagine if someone's AD account is mistakenly deleted due to two usernames being confused e.g. JSMITH vs JSMYTH.

[@trr8z]

What would you recommend for employee files? We would need security with a limited number of people who should have access.

[@clintg3435]

Just an FYI, and I know it's frowned upon but you can map a SharePoint site as a drive. It seems network speeds are throttled by Microsoft which makes loading the files kinda slow and power queries run a little slow too. This reduced speed is documented on many forums but waaay better than navigating the site in a browser. Another option is to go to a document folder on the SharePoint site and at the top there is a button you can click to sync certain folders to your onedrive sync client, then files are available locally for faster access.

[@maltawellholdingsinc6215]

I love how you explained the Me/We/Us - I understand so much more by watching your video and you are a wonderful presenter!

[@reglamariagarciespejo3833]

If I understand well, you use teams / sharepoint to collaborate and work in groups, sharing folders and files. If we have this aim in my organization teams / sharepoint are better that onedrive, doesn't it?

[@bevvanphillips7397]

clearest explanation I've ever found. thank you.

[@markdallison4589]

Many thanks. We have just taken the leap into 365 at work and this is a great way of explaining the cross over. Is it just me or did anyone else think of the film Babe and "Baa, Ram, Ewe" every time you said "Me, We, Us."

For team templates, would you suggest these are stored on SharePoint teams? What about company-wide templates?

Why not have a "template contest" several times a year?

Used to use Asana, but switched to full 365 because easy integration with Teams…But does it confusing 💯 I understand Teams, we store our video production, marketing etc. But what about Client folders, Marketing, Research, Payroll, Finacial, all the core “stuff”. One drive?

[@jumpto365]

Teams files, which is SharePoint. Don’t use OneDrive for code working files and collaboration. A group’s content should be owned by the group (a Team or SharePoint site), not an individual (OneDrive).

I love oneDrive, but have been slower to adopt SharePoint (simply because I have had no reason for it). One thing that I have done to make the transition simpler is to go to my team document library and sync that folder location within my oneDrive. For me it's the best of both worlds. Great video, thank you.

[@angie19057]

You can talk technical in laymen's terms. I will use your video to explain to Management and our users. Well done!

I don’t, but that’s a good idea.

[@julieellington1480]

Just what I was after, a clearly explained video of how this Teams, One Drive and Sharepoint works with documents...duly sharing with us oldies at work who are struggling to get our heads around it all!! Thanks so much :)

[@prmpsu]

Does using Sharepoint for collaboration assume you have a Team within which to share the file? What if you want to collaborate on a document with a group of people or an individual that are/is not part of an established team? Where do you save the file in this scenario?

[@jumpto365]

In that case you’re going to use a SharePoint Team Site. Don’t let the “Team” fool you: it has nothing to do with Teams the app. Open SP from the office.com homepage and create a new site through there. You have all the same file sharing, storage, and editing features. And if you ever want a Team in Teams, you can add one later.

[@ddeng73]

Great video. The most easy understanding and convincing explanation.
