15 reasons to love OneDrive

Yin and Yang

I copied some of the below from a previous comment and added some extra as this thread seems more appropriate.

15 reasons why for us OneDrive fails. I want the product to work as it will allow us to move off of the Dropbox platform.... It would be great if the OneDrive team would acknowledge some of the problems listed below or point me in a direction where I can fix them.

• The Onedrive app shows all picture files from all folders and puts them all under photos. It's near impossible to organise a weeks work with screen shots, old web site png files etc mixed in as well. 
• OneDrive on the IOS platform freezes at "setting things up" or "checking" when your photo library is large - in my case >15K photos.
• IOS Onedrive back ground refresh either doesn't work or is very slow which requires you to keep the OneDrive app open to update.
• When using an iPhone, iPad and a PC with OneDrive installed syncing the identical set of photos with the identical file names to the same Camera Roll folder you will end up having a full set of duplicate photos from the iPhone and iPad devices. OneDrive IOS doesn't recognise that they are the same files on different devices and won't upload just the unique photos.  The only solution that we have found is to disable photo backup on one of the IOS devices .. eg iPad.
• Photos with supported formats are missed/not sync'd if your photo library is large. OneDrive shows no errors/info to inform the end user. 
• For us Syncing folders under Windows 11 can be slow or erratic even with a 1000mbs WAN. 
• Folder icons that show online/local status of the folders once sync'd is either incorrect of very slow to show the correct status. Windows explorer needs to be restarted to show correct status.
• Sharing folders requires the recipients to have a Microsoft account which isn't always the case and shouldn't be needed.
• OneDrive has to re-sync the whole file once a change has been made instead of syncing just the part of the file that's been edited which is far quicker - like Dropbox.
• Why is there a need for a 540GB daily limit for syncing files which can be worked around with a *.ini file edit.
• Photo app is slow and clunky (especially with "show my online content" enabled) with limited file support requiring  3rd party add on's
• Upload file size limit is too small - 250GB whilst Dropbox is unlimited
• No LAN sync preventing users saving data charges.
• Limited file support (won't open)  when trying to view certain file types compared to other sync applications.
• Installing OneDrive onto Windows 11 with the User Local folders on a different partition other than C:\ produces local user folder location\sync errors.
  
  Hi ... Just wishing to say....  We have all recently upgraded to Windows 11 Version 10.0.22621 Build 22621 including the new Photos app. For us this upgrade has transformed the functionality and reliability of Onedrive to a level that allowed our small team to migrate away from Dropbox.
  Some of the issues on our list above still exist but we are now prepared to work around these as for us the cost savings and Office 365 experience is now complete..
  It feels like Onedrive has had some TLC applied....
