This document provides an overview of OneDrive and OneDrive for Business. It discusses the key differences between the consumer and business versions of OneDrive. The consumer version of OneDrive offers 7GB of free cloud storage and allows the purchase of additional storage. It can be accessed with a Microsoft account and includes Office Online for viewing documents. OneDrive for Business is part of SharePoint Server 2013 and Office 365 and provides 25GB of storage per user that can be used to replace personal drives and sync files. Both versions allow files to be synced to Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android devices.
