How to check how much OneDrive for Business storage you have left?

A question we get asked many times is, how can I check how much OneDrive for Business storage I have left?

Why would you want to know how much OneDrive storage you have left?

Well as a business (and you) gets older, it’s easy to hoard and accumulate files over the years and the OneDrive storage can get filled to capacity and this will have to be managed eventually.

Is Microsoft 365 Business secure?

Microsoft 365 Business brings together features from across most of the Microsoft software product range and it’s a solution that can cater for most of the small and medium sized businesses.

It’s powered by Office 365 and Windows 10 providing features as device management and security features as a way to ensure that company’s data is protected.

Before we answer the question “Is Microsoft 365 Business secure?” we will let you know why security can be so crucial for your business.

There are usually two different scenarios when it comes to computers and mobile devices being used in business and Microsoft 365 Business has your security covered for both.

One scenario is a very safe option, the business supplies every device and it is set up correctly for the employee (and to the business standards) before being used.

The other scenario is when a business allows an employee to use their own personal devices for work.

Many businesses can save thousands of dollars when they authorise bring-your-own-device (BYOD) policies that allow employees to use personal devices for work purposes.

However, when this is approved the company’s data and information remain at significant risk and more often than not, more risk than supplied devices.

It’s a point that we find is often not thought about.
