What is the difference between OneDrive and SharePoint?

PT

Target Audience: Iscte-IUL Community

Answer/Solution:

- The similarities between the programs

1. Sharepoint and OneDrive have similar cloud storage functions.

3. Sharepoint’s usability is much broader than that of OneDrive, as it can be adapted to function as an intranet. It can also be integrated with Teams.
