Apple's competing iCloud is only available for Apple devices, and its website lacks basic functions like search. OneDrive integrates seamlessly with Microsoft Office (both the installed and online versions) and includes rich photo-management features. Of course, everything is also available in any web browser you log in to. Microsoft's online backup and syncing service offers apps not only for PCs, but also for Macs, Androids, iOS, and Xbox. The service's deep integration with Windows 10 and Office 365 (now called Microsoft 365) and its completeness, maturity, and polish earn it not only an Editors' Choice award, but also a rare 5-star rating. OneDrive has attractive and capable web and mobile interfaces, photo AI tagging, real-time collaborative editing, and powerful search. OneDrive's functionality and design have reached a point of slick usability and reliability with a rich feature set, online office apps, and wide platform support.
Well, that's not entirely accurate, since OneDrive actually preceded those cloud file storage and syncing services by at least five years. OneDrive is Microsoft's answer to Apple's iCloud and Google Drive.
