alternative to using onedrive

[233]

small office of 5 staff we currently just use a shared onedrive for anything to be passed around between us or shared resources/ documents

is there any tangible benefit to using an in office solution rather than whacking it in onedrive?
only issue we've found is that onedrive can be a touch flakey sometimes and can take an age to sync occasionally but also has the benefit it can be accessed remotely
certainly not averse to to spending money if we can see a benefit from it but atm i cant see any reason to change out what we're doing and just putting up with the little niggles

in office nas/server

Pros
Local storage
secure
expandable when we want
faster

Negatives
faffy remote connectivity
we need to back it up which i know we most certainly wont do


anyone care to share some thoughts?

I can't speak to NAS pros and cons, but your con to NAS regarding needing to back up is the same for OneDrive. You need to back it up.

now thats a yikes moment,

something we've never actually considered before is backing up onedrive i guess you just always assume its going to be done their end oops
200gb downloading now oops

As the most tech savvy person here it falls on my shoulders
my knowledge of backup systems and networking is somewhere between none and zero.

had a quick look at the wasabi nas stuff. not quite sure i fully understand it mind you.
might just have to buy a nas and have a play about
