Hi Mike
It is probably best answered by those who have experience of both. I use
Dropbox for files and folders I need to share with other people, and this works
really well for me, especially as I have a 1tb subscription. I had hoped
OneDrive would be as accessible, but it just isn't, least not for me. As they
are both Cloud-based, I fail to see why there would be more security risk for
one over the other, but I am not an expert at Cloud storage anyway.
Kind Regards,
Jackie Brown

Hi all.
Is the security difference enough to justify recommending 1Drive vs. Dropbox? I
haven’t tried 1Drive yet but it sounds as though accessibility is a problem.

Hi Kevin
Join the club, sorry to hear that.
I have been sent a link that takes me to the various Tech Talk folders
I need to access. But it is very fiddly to navigate the page, and I
had hoped it would be possible for me to access files and folders in
the same way I can using Dropbox. I have a OneDrive folder on my
system which contains a blank Documents folder that appears to have
been put there by default. I cannot find a way of using the link
Steven Scott provided to allow me to share his material on my PC. The
web page interface is really horrible to work with, marginally better with
NVDA than with JAWS, but still horrible!
If you have any suggestions, please feel free to drop me a line off
list if others here aren't interested in this thread.
Kind Regards,
Jackie Brown

understanding have a bad back and in quite a bit of pain so try again

than drop box.

Has anyone used OneDrive? I have signed in, and followed a linkthat you need to pay for after a certain limit?
Steven Scott has sent me so I can access Tech Talk. I have a folder
on my PC called OneDrive with a Documents folder inside it that has
been put there by default. But I can't work out how to link the
material I need to that OneDrive folder. I use Dropbox successfully
this way, but RNIB, in its infinite wisdom, has decided that we
should be using OneDrive instead. The web page though isn't great
with either JAWS or NVDA, so am wondering how others have found it.
RNIB thinks OneDrive is more secure, though I am puzzled by this as
they are all Cloud-based services. Also, is there a storage limit on
OneDrive
