it's been a breakthrough year for One Drive for business.
We unified the sync client for OneDrive personal and buiness
on both PC and Mac.
We delivered a new modern web experience.
Shipped four star and above rated mobile apps
across iOS, Android, and Windows phone.
And, we built lots of new admin and security controls for IT.
Today I'm going to show you how OneDrive for Business
as part of Office 365
provides simple powerful file sharing and collaboration
across all your devices.
Backed by the cloud leadership of Microsoft in Security
IT control, privacy, and compliance.
And, we'll also cover what we're doing to make OneDrive
the window to all your files in Office 365
regardless of whether they're in OneDrive
Office 365 groups or SharePoint.
And how we are adding new intelligent experiences
for trending and suggested content
and insights into the impact and reach of your work.
To begin we'll look at the life of a file.
It starts with an individual who creates it to drive a desired business outcome.
For example, a sales proposal.
And that person then needs to get others to contribute
ideas, feedback, and expertise to the file.
Organizations want to give their people a place to put all of these files
and allow them to share and collaborate
as they need both internally and externally on any device.
and this is OneDrive's role.
Let me show you this in action.
I'll play the role of a salesperson at Contoso
who needs to put together a compelling sales proposal for a customer, Fabrikam.
Like many people, I've got multiple devices.
At home I tend to work with a Mac.
And, I'm issued a PC from work, where I do the bulk of my work
including budgets, campaign plans, and proposals.
On the Mac here, I sync all of my files
for my personal photos and documents.
I've also got some of my work files here.
So, you'll see that I can actually go in and selectively pick
the folders that I want to take offline.
So I can optimize this for different devices
different purposes and different capacity.
You'll also notice that I actually sync
Redmond Raiders FC
I'm the secretary for the club.
And, we actually use Office 365 for managing that.
So, let's go into work and I'm going to go and create a new sales proposal for Fabrikam.
So I pick it based on an existing template.
Now all I need to do is actually go in and start to fill in that information.
And when I save that, i'm going to save that to OneDrive for business.
And I've got a proposals folder here.
So I'll call this Fabrikam Proposal.
Go ahead and save that now.
And then the final thing that I want to do is I need to get some expertise and help
with the pricing section from a colleague of mine, Omar.
I'm going to go in and invite Omar to this document.
It will find all of the matching entries for Omar.
Please help with pricing section.
And go ahead and share that.
So now when I'm in the office, I use my Windows laptop
and I want to be able to work on the same document quickly and easily.
You'll see here that I actually got a different range of folders that I sync on my PC.
So here we are here.
Here's my OneDrive for business listed out.
And, I've got a set of folders that I use when I'm actually in the office.
You'll also notice that although I'm syncing my personal files
I'm not syncing any of that not for profit
the Raiders FC that I had on my Mac.
So let's go into that proposal
and actually go in and continue to work with it.
So here we are here
and I can actually see that Omar is already in the document
and applying changes.
If I want to, I can actually go in and trigger
a Skype conversation directly from within Word.
If we want to have a discussion about certain sections.
I've also got the ability to actually go and share with others
again, directly in the Office app.
And, I've got a view of all of the activity that's been going on.
So I know when specific versions are being set
what actions other users have actually taken.
So, I got a really super productive experience.
If I want to, I can also go in and add new comments
as conversation and review with Omar.
So again, all of these features are unique to OneDrive for business
which provides the most seamless Office integration.
If I prefer to work in the browser.
I've got a great experience there too.
As you'll see, I've got a really simple list view.
I can switch between tiles.
So I've got a thumbnail preview of all of the key files that I'm working with.
I can also go in and have a look at my recent files.
I can have a look at the files that have been shared with me.
And, I can even access my recycle bin if I need to recover accidentally deleted files.
So let's go in and have a look at that proposal.
So, you'll see it's laid out there, there's the Fabrikam proposal file.
Now as I select that
you'll see up the top I've got a contextual array of options.
So if I want to, I can open in Word online or Word.
I can also go ahead and share that file.
Get a link to embed within an email.
And, there's various other functions as well.
I can also have a look at the version history for that file.
And if I want to, I can go into what we call the information pane.
And it's going to give me a rich preview of that particular file.
I can see all of the recent activity.
I can see the sharing information.
So who I've actually shared with.
There's the Omar share that I did before.
Plus the ability to copy quick links to go send to others
if I want to collaborate with them.
So as you've seen
OneDrive for business allows me to get my work done quickly and efficiently.
But, this is quite often just the first stop on a longer journey.
At some point, people might want to publish or distribute their files.
Make them available for a broader audience
for viewing feedback or approvals.
And, this is SharePoint's role
with the team site or Office 365 group.
So what motivates people to copy or move their files?
Often, it's due to organization mandated processes.
But, also people just want to make their work broadly discoverable
reviewed, liked, shared.
All the reasons why Facebook and Instagram
have been such big social phenomena.
And, this is where we're investing.
Making it simple to copy and move
between the file management solutions in Office 365
OneDrive for business, Groups, and SharePoint.
And making them accessible and actionable
from a single set of desktop, browser, and mobile experiences.
So in our story, I want to publish the sales proposal
and make it available for others to reuse.
It builds my brand and stature as a subject matter expert.
Let's start with a simple process of copying files
from OneDrive for business to SharePoint or Office 365 groups.
We'll be shipping this experience in the coming months.
So here's the proposal I'm working on with Omar.
and what I want to do is copy that off to our pipeline management team site
for broader review.
All I need to do is pick the documents and the proposal's folder
and choose that location.
Now it's actually going to copy that over to the SharePoint team site.
When I click on that
it's actually going to take me to that particular team site.
And there's the document there.
So we've clearly got a great experience on the PC and Mac
on both the desktop and browser
to enable people to work together more effectively.
We're going to continue to deliver
simple and powerful experiences for PC and Mac
by ensuring that you can sync
any files stored in any SharePoint site or Office 365 group.
This capability will be delivered towards the end of the year.
Starting with a preview in the third quarter of 2016.
So let me show you how simple and powerful the mobile experience is.
To be the window to all your files in Office 365.
the most important device to have a fast and simple experience is your phone.
And today, over a hundred million people
have downloaded our mobile apps
and rated them highly on all the mobile platforms.
We have a lot in store for them.
And today, I'll show you some new mobile features and capabilities
for accessing and sharing files that we're shipping today.
Firstly for iOS, I'm going to show you how the OneDrive app
not only gives me anywhere anytime access to my OneDrive files.
It now gives me access to all of my SharePoint files
the ones I care about.
I'm able to do all of the things I typically want to do on my phone
view, edit, share, upload and even take files offline when I'm disconnected.
So here's my iphone and I have the OneDrive app installed.
And you can see I've got all my files and folders that I've been working on
including the Fabrikam proposal
that I've been working on with Omar.
So I can go in and open that particular file in the Office application
and it's really straight forward.
You also see that Omar is actually still editing that document.
Very very powerful capabilities.
I can also do things like search across all of my OneDrive.
I can go into all of my recent files.
And now I can actually go and access the SharePoint sites.
So there's that pipeline management site that we copied it to.
If I drill into the proposals folder
there's the Fabrikam proposal.
So I can access all of the files that I care about
regardless of whether they're in OneDrive or in SharePoint.
As I mentioned, this iOS update is available today.
You can start to see where our vision and strategy for OneDrive is taking shape.
We're the only solution that lets users connect to their individual cloud storage
and SharePoint files
all in the one simple powerful experience.
And this is just the first step.
We'll bring the same experience to the Android app and Windows phone later this year.
So stay tuned for announcements on that.
Now let me show you how we've gone beyond just simple
file sync and share.
We're driving usage of these tools by appealing to people's desire
to not only get their work done, but also be recognized for that work.
We're moving beyond utility file storage and bringing insights and intelligence
to recommend content
and provide compelling feedback on the impact and reach of your work.
Let's look at some of the new intelligent experiences
that we're delivering today.
So firstly in the Android app
again I can access all of my files and folders
including that proposal that we've been working on.
But, what we're shipping today is a new discover view
and this uses the power of the office graph to deliver me suggested
and relevant and trending content
that might be useful for my job.
It means that I don't have to search for files.
Files find me.
We are also delivering the same experience into the browser
and will be shipping that in the coming months.
So that's how we're bringing you intelligent experiences
similar to Delve
to bring you relevant content directly in the mobile app.
Our other goal, is to help you measure the impact of your work.
So let me give you a first look at what we're shipping later this year.
We're doing to files, what Instagram did to photos.
We tap into people's desire for self expression and recognition
to be noticed and valued for their contribution.
Not only can I publish from OneDrive to SharePoint, but I want to.
For the visibility and discoverability that SharePoint offers.
So we're providing a means
for people to review and measure the impact and reach of their work.
Again, we harness the power of the office graph and machine learning to make this possible.
And, all of it delivered as part of a single mobile app experience.
So here I am in the mobile app
and I've got all my files and folders as you've seen before.
But, we'll have a section there where I can actually go and do analytics
around the impact and reach of the files I'm creating.
So if I go into analytics
I can view all of my files and on the right hand side
you'll see the total number of views of that content
and how it's trending overtime.
So if I tap into a file
the top blue line
gives me a breakdown of the total views over time for this particular file.
And if I pick a particular date
it will tell me in this case
March 11, I had 16 total views of that file.
The line below, gives me the unique number of viewers.
So, four viewers on that date have looked at my file 16 times.
And I can see all of the trends around whether more people are starting to look at this particular file.
And, I'm really measuring the impact of my work.
So there you have it.
You've seen some of the simple and powerful capabilities we offer today
across PC, Mac, browser, and mobile
to make people productive in creating, collaborating on
and publishing their files in Office 365.
Today we've released some amazing new experiences
to deliver insight and intelligence
to the way you work.
And provided a glimpse of how we're moving beyond simple file sync and share
with analytics to measure the impact and reach of your work.
You can get started with most of this stuff today.
The iOS app to connect to your SharePoint document libraries, is now available on the app store.
And the new discovery experience in the Android app
is now available from the play store.
All the other new features we showed
including the discover view and the copy to SharePoint in the browser
will roll out in the coming months.
As always, give us your feedback on onedrive.uservoice.com
and stay tuned for more exciting announcements
on OneDrive for business later this year.
Thanks for watching.
