Content Management Options within Microsoft 365

OneDrive for Business

OneDrive for Business is a Microsoft’s content management offering that enables subscribers to store their content to the cloud backed by Microsoft Azure. While it is possible to share from your OneDrive for Business, best practices encourage users limit sharing to one-to-one or one-to-many scenarios.

OneDrive is a commercially available content management solution designed for non-business consumers. Alternatively, OneDrive for Business is a document storage solution for business or enterprise users of Microsoft cloud subscriptions.

The main difference between OneDrive for Business and SharePoint Online document libraries is their intended audiences as it relates to content sharing. OneDrive is designed to be your personnel content storage and encourages one-to-one and one-to-many relationships. Alternatively, SharePoint document libraries are designed for teams or groups to encourage many-to-many sharing relationships.

SharePoint Online

SharePoint Online is a content management system that allows users to create websites, pages, document libraries, and lists. Often SharePoint is utilized within an organization to create a series of sites that mirror its organizational structure and provide easy access to corporate resources to assist employees.

As a general rule, you should save documents to SharePoint Online when you have a need to share with multiple stakeholders in many-to-many relationships. Additionally, SharePoint Online offers many benefits such as advanced metadata filtering, information rights management, and advanced workflow automation.

SharePoint is the backbone of OneDrive and Microsoft Teams content management features. SharePoint Online integrates with Microsoft’s Power Platform, which enables subscribers to create automations, bots, dashboards, and apps that all integrate seamlessly with SharePoint Online. Put simply, competitors are unable to offer comparable capabilities and features.

Microsoft Teams

When you save or upload files to Microsoft Teams, your files are stored in a SharePoint Online site’s document library. When a “Team” is created within Microsoft Teams, the service automatically creates an Office 365 group, which includes a SharePoint Online site. Within this site, Teams builds a document folder structure that mirrors the channel structure of the Microsoft Team. Each time you share a document in a Teams channel, that documents saves to the corresponding folder in SharePoint Online. 

Yes, you are able to customize tabs within a Microsoft Teams channel to connect to any SharePoint site within your organization (assuming you have the correct permissions).

Deleting a file in Microsoft Teams places the file in the corresponding SharePoint Online site’s recycling bin.
