Positive features enhance collaboration but room for improvement in file syncing
Regarding Microsoft OneDrive for Business's versioning control, sometimes there are syncing problems. Microsoft OneDrive for Business is available on the cloud as well as on my local machine. When we put a file in Microsoft OneDrive for Business on the local machine, it takes some time to sync, and sometimes it gives an error, which is a specific issue I have encountered. If Microsoft works on the syncing part of Microsoft OneDrive for Business, it would greatly enhance its functionality. Sometimes we update a file, and it isn't showing on another end, which requires us to run a sync again for it to appear. That part, if addressed by Microsoft, would be great. I love SharePoint more, so I will provide feedback in relation to that. SharePoint has only one folder, and we must create multiple folders within that to store files. If they introduce a categorized option, similar to SharePoint where we have team site differentiators, and options for creating communication sites, that would be fantastic for Microsoft OneDrive for Business.
