Microsoft removes OneDrive's limitless storage.

Microsoft no longer offers OneDrive business plans with unlimited storage; instead, the business plan now only offers 1 terabyte of storage per user by default.

The availability of unlimited cloud storage for commercial users is dwindling. Microsoft no longer provides the OneDrive for Business plan, which formerly offered subscribers unlimited storage, as a way for new clients to sign up.

If a business only wants to utilize OneDrive and not the rest of the Microsoft 365 suite, the only option available on the Microsoft website is OneDrive for Business (Plan One), which costs $5 per user per month.

It's a long cry from the limitless storage option that consumers could previously select. The OneDrive for Business option (the initial plan) offers up to one terabyte of cloud storage, with the opportunity to grow to five terabytes based on the number of users.

Additionally, the business offers users of its two Microsoft 365 Business plans 1 terabyte of storage each.

If organizations are eligible, the company previously offered OneDrive for Business (the second plan), which offers unlimited storage per user for $10 per month. However, the company removed this specific plan somewhere in mid-July.

vast enterprises that required unlimited storage to manage a vast and expanding quantity of media files, such as movies or art assets, were fond of the OneDrive for Business (Plan 2) option.

According to a Microsoft representative, the purchasing procedure for clients who use standalone OneDrive for Business plans has been made simpler in response to user demand. Customers with active subscriptions to these plans may continue to upgrade their storage and renew their licenses.

Although OneDrive for Business (Plan 2) was not explicitly mentioned in the release, it was confirmed that the corporation had altered its OneDrive offers.

This implies that current OneDrive for Business (Plan 2) customers who have unlimited storage will continue to use the plan in these situations, unlike new customers, at least temporarily.

The company's unusual claim that it is simplifying OneDrive plans in response to customer demand raises the possibility that either there isn't enough support for the OneDrive for Business (Plan 2) option to continue operating, or that something else is going on.

Due to complaints from several of its customers that they were using the unlimited cloud storage plans for companies for purposes other than file storage, Dropbox last week announced that it was discontinuing these plans.
