Customer Reviews
Solid Access system
I do not usually write reviews. I have been using OneDrive for Business for over a year now and it has been a great system. I generate a large volume of pdf, word, and excel docs that I need to be able access on the road. This system allows me to do that regardless of use of iPhone, iPad, my laptop, or another persons computer. It has saved me so much time and aggravation. Additionally I can provide much faster response to client calls and questions. I no longer have to respond to a client stating I will get them re document upon return to my office. They are always available where ever I am. Solid business app.
Junk for now
If you want to access your OneDrive for Business, you'll have to use Word, Excel or Powerpoint, because this app won't work. You'll enter your info on the log in screen and be told that there's a problem with your account, never mind that you just saved a document to said account using Microsoft Word or any of the other big three Office apps. Looks like it might be useful someday, but for now, enjoy the little double cloud icon on your iPad or iPhone, because that's all you'll get from this app. Not sure why any company would release an app in this condition and leave it unpatched for a month and a half, but all the reviews are right: it does not work at all. Wish there were a way to give it zero stars, because it's not an app at all. It's really tiny wallpaper.
What a disappointment
This is the difference between Apple Vs Microsoft. I would rather wait for the app to be released in a working condition rather than rushing it out and wasting time trying to figure out how to make something work that just doesn't. They need the ability to see other sites like the office apps. It would be helpful to be able to use this as a viewer without having to use different apps for everything. Too many sync issues as well. Unfortunately, the company I work for has made the commitment to use 365 so I will be forced to deal with whatever Microsoft decides works or doesn't.
