I also use it to quickly transfer items from my phone or laptop to my desktop just by uploading a document to OneDrive. Once I upload it from my phone, I can immediately access it on my desktop computer\! OneDrive has really came in handy for document cloud storage.
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes Microsoft gives me issues with signing in, you might have to try and sign in two or three times before the system recognizes your device, but other than that it has been smooth sailing\!
> 
> I utilize OneDrive for both company and personal use. I have found that since starting OneDrive there has been no headache of accessing a file or document when traveling or out of the office. I can easily pull anything up through the mobile application on my phone or iPad. &#10;&#10;My company is construction-based and OneDrive has really came in handy for the estimators to create folders and store documents while traveling between different job sites. Papers are no longer getting lost in the shuffle.
