DOESN’T WORK

OneDrive simply doesn’t work. It never stops scanning files. Dropbox works seamlessly. When I try to sync the SAME files with OneDrive I get two dozen error messages or more about filenames (they are probably using SharePoint which has notorious filename limitations they’ve NEVER fixed) and WORSE the sync never gets more than 10% of the way through ~100GB of files. What use is 1TB when I can’t get past 10GB??? Microsoft, just when you think they’ve done something right (Office365) you find out they haven’t.

That was my earlier review. Now, several months later I’m trying to use it again and once again I find it unusable. CPU usage by OneDrive is always 90-100%. This is COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE. Dropbox doesn’t do this. Box doesn’t do this. Microsoft, please buy one of these companies (or both) and provide a usable product. OneDrive (and almost certainly OneDrive for Business) should be scraped. It is AWFUL.
