Bandwidth hog
My internet access has ground to a halt since I installed OneDrive. A quick online search (with OneDrive off) brought to light that OneDrive crippling internet access is a common complaint. The response from Microsoft on the OneDrive uservoice was "Thanks for the suggestion. It’s a reasonable feature and we would like to deliver it on Mac (and Windows). We’ll be thinking about it.” I opted for the Office 365 annual fee because of the promise that I would have 1Tb of cloud storage. Well after 3 days my 8.5 Gb folder still has not fully uploaded. I have had to turn OneDrive off during the day so the internet is accessible. Until Microsoft finishes "thinking about it” I would recommend iCloud or DropBox over OneDrive. What is the point of having a Tb if you cannot use it?
I don’t mind it taking time to uploada large file I just want to be able to set the ammount of upload bandwidth that is available for OneDrive to use. Nice concept, but poor execution.
