Overview

What Are SharePoint & OneDrive Used For?

OneDrive provides personal cloud storage for each user’s working files, with secure access across devices. SharePoint provides shared sites, document libraries, and team content for collaboration across your organization.

Together with Microsoft Teams and Microsoft 365 apps, SharePoint and OneDrive help businesses store, organize, share, co-author, and control access to documents from one connected Microsoft 365 environment.

SharePoint vs OneDrive:
How They Work Together

OneDrive and SharePoint work together to manage files across Microsoft 365. OneDrive is designed primarily for an individual user’s working files, while SharePoint provides shared document libraries, sites, and content for teams and the wider organization. Both can sync files to your device and support secure sharing and collaboration.

Document Management

Build a Better Document Management System with SharePoint

SharePoint can replace scattered file shares and disconnected folders with structured document libraries, controlled permissions, version history, and real-time co-authoring.
Serviona designs your SharePoint document structure, permissions, and external-sharing controls around how your business actually works.

SharePoint Intranet Design & Build

Microsoft SharePoint provides communication sites, news, pages, document libraries, and navigation tools for building a modern company intranet. Serviona designs and configures SharePoint intranets for company announcements, HR resources, policies, departmental pages, internal communications, and shared business content. We focus on Microsoft 365's built-in SharePoint capabilities so your intranet remains secure, scalable, and manageable by your own team.

For requirements that involve advanced custom development, Power Apps, complex integrations, or bespoke branding, we can help coordinate the appropriate specialist resources.

Backup, Restore & Recovery

SharePoint and OneDrive include built-in recovery features such as recycle bin recovery, version history, and point-in-time restore to help recover from accidental deletion or unwanted changes.

For organizations that need longer retention, faster large-scale recovery, ransomware protection, or additional business-continuity options, Microsoft 365 Backup or third-party backup solutions can also be used. Serviona helps determine the right recovery approach for your requirements.

Recycle bin: Up to 93 days of built-in deleted-item recovery.

Version history & library restore: Recover earlier versions or roll back unwanted changes.

Extended Backup: Add longer retention and broader recovery when required.
