OneDrive & Microsoft Office Web Apps

What is OneDrive?

OneDrive is Microsoft’s professional online cloud storage solution. Much like Dropbox or Google Drive, OneDrive allows you to store documents online allowing you to access your files from almost anywhere that has an internet connection. OneDrive applications are available for your desktop and most smart phones, which allows for easy access, synchronization, and the transfer of large files.

What are Microsoft Office Web Apps?

Bundled into your OneDrive account are Microsoft’s Office Web Applications which include Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote. Files are saved using standard Office extensions, such as docx, so there will be no compatibility issues when viewing your files with the desktop version of Office. All files are automatically saved in your OneDrive account so you can access them from almost any web enabled device through your browser.
