There are only a couple of things you need to remember. I’m not going to dwell too much on the actual installation of the OneDrive Sync Client.

This means that if you have users who require multiple connections to OneDrive, you are going to get into a file conflict nightmare as it tries to synchronize between these sessions. FSLogix is *the* best way to deal with synchronization of the OneDrive user cache, but it is categorically flagged in the documentation that “ OneDrive does not support multiple simultaneous connections / multiple concurrent connections, using the same profile, under any circumstances“.

For Citrix and RDSH environments, this doesn’t sit so well, where administrators need control of their estates and a full understanding of what is being deployed.Īnd finally, there is the problem of FSLogix. As with Teams, Microsoft would prefer to keep this updated and installed on a per-user basis so they can deliver new features quickly and effectively. Thirdly, there is the matter of the OneDrive client itself. If you’re in the habit of applying CIS hardening policies, then especially on multi-user systems (like Citrix Virtual Apps), it is common practice to restrict access to the system drive (which is invariably C:) And this means that in these environments, you can’t use the Sync Client – because the user literally can’t access their files! OneDrive can only sync to the C: drive (I think I covered this a bit in a previous post), and using a network drive, a junction point or even FSLogix or subst trickery to redirect that somewhere else doesn’t fool it. OneDrive generally requires you to utilize the OneDrive Sync Client – but if you use this, you need to have somewhere to store the local cache. They’re obviously not all going to use this, but it’s a huge amount of storage to potentially fill. OneDrive offers users up to 1TB (yes) of space to utilize.

When it comes to putting OneDrive into Citrix or other virtualized environments – and particularly shared multi-user environments like Citrix Virtual Apps or Windows Virtual Desktop – there are a number of factors you will want to bear in mind. As with Teams, Microsoft can be quite savvy by pushing this hard into the personal user space and then allowing the users themselves to pressure enterprises into adoption, because they’ve already become familiar with the product.

So there’s little point arguing what works best on Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops – chances are you’ve already been told to look at OneDrive. The likes of Sharefile, Box, DropBox and all the others out there may well have more features and work better – but if your product is effectively free, then there is a tipping point of “good enough” and Microsoft have already passed this threshold.

For those of you living under rocks, OneDrive is Microsoft’s horse in the Enterprise File Share and Sync (EFSS) race – and because it is free with your Office365 entitlement, it is pretty much one of the frontrunners. As more and more of us adapt to new ways of working, OneDrive is bound to come to your attention sooner or later. It was only a matter of time before I got to this subject.
