SharePoint vs OneDrive Connector

There are a number of key differences in Umango's OneDrive and SharePoint connectors that are worth noting. Although they are similar, they each provide some unique features (which is why they both exist) and there are pros and cons with each. Also, it is worth noting that the SharePoint connector only ships with the 'Pro' tier of Umango while OneDrive is supported in every tier.
