For £265py you get Visio (at least that’s what I did).
I’ve gone back to £59 and Enterprise Architect for process analysis but I’m still looking for a Visio alternative for noddy diagrams. I’ll probably go back to Dia.

Any alternatives for cheaper/free? Problem is I use a fair bit of space on onedrive which I think is part of the deal?
Although you've not exactly stated your requirements.

There isn't one - all others pale in comparison. Just pay for it, it's pennies and what you get for the money is excellent - brand new version of office, full Exchange etc.

OK...
1. How much space do you need for your backups?
And totally separate to the above requirement:
2. How much space do you need for the files you want to be accessible from anywhere?
3. Who is your broadband provider?
4. What smartphone do you use?

Originally posted by WTFH View PostAre you using OneDrive because you need to share all the files with multiple devices not connected to the same network, because you don’t like hard drives, or because you think you must?
As for alternatives to MS Office, there’s still Libre and OpenOffice. Both free.
You may find your broadband provider or you phone software comes with cloud storage that you’re not using, and maybe you need to manage your files a bit better.

That’s what I can’t quite figure out. I have Home 365, £79.99 a year, 6 users with 1Tb of OneDrive space each.
The downside is that you can only have one OneDrive linked to your Windows account, but if you want (say) 2Tb of space available then just set up a second Live account, create the OneDrive account online, create a folder in it, and share the folder with your main account.

OneDrive alone surely can be had quite cheaply... what else are you getting for that price as it sounds a lot. Is that per year?!
