Microsoft365 Business Basic file storage/sharing options

[Ev0]

I’m an idiot when it comes to Microsoft 365 stuff.

My folks have a Microsoft 365 Business Basic subscription for their little business, only really using it for exchange online to get them away from running exchange on their own server.

The server they have is now really just used for AD user/computer management and file storage.

Ideally I’d like to have things so that the files are cloud hosted as it then makes my life easier in various ways when trying to manage their stuff on the side.

Given their subscription what’s the best option here, would OneDrive be the option here or is it a Sharepoint thing? Is OneDrive more for individuals and their files rather than group shares?

Pretty basic requirement they have here, basic file sharing, restrict certain shares/files to specified users etc.

Also then got to thinking Azure AD might be a good option, but one thing at a time!

Thanks

Thanks guys.

Yes aware of the need for backups etc, will take a look at OneDrive and see if that fits the bill.

keeping things simple for them is key, they are not hugely IT literate plus means it’s less for me to have to manage (over the years my free time has become less and less to help with this, more so now with a baby....). At the moment I hardly have to touch their systems, once or twice a year maybe to set any new users up as they join/people leave (only 7 or so employees).
