Sekvora vs OneDrive: a cloud drive without the bundle
OneDrive is excellent value if you already pay for Microsoft 365 — storage is essentially bundled in. Sekvora is for people who don't want the bundle: a standalone cloud drive that mounts as a local disk on macOS, Windows, and Linux alike, where $9/month buys 1 TB of storage and nothing you didn't ask for.

Pick what fits.
Both can be right.
- You want a standalone cloud drive, not storage bundled with an office suite.
- You want the same mount-as-disk experience on macOS and Windows, with nothing to install.
- You want to share a folder as a read-only drive anyone can mount.
- You want password-protected and expiring share links without a Microsoft 365 subscription.
- You already pay for Microsoft 365 — the 1 TB is effectively included.
- You live in Word, Excel, and Teams and want storage that talks to all of them.
- You rely on Files On-Demand sync in Windows Explorer.
- You need iOS and Android apps today.
Bundle vs standalone
OneDrive's best prices are inseparable from Microsoft 365. That's great when you use Office; it's overhead when you don't. Sekvora sells one thing — a cloud drive that mounts as a local disk — so the plan you buy is the plan you use.
Mounting, without the bundle
OneDrive's local integration is at its best on Windows, where it's baked into Explorer; on a Mac it means installing the OneDrive app and tying it to a Microsoft account. Sekvora mounts through the WebDAV support built into both operating systems — the same experience on either, nothing to install.
