Microsoft earlier this month has come up with new and highly
improved version of Skydrive. Installed with an impressive look and feel, the
improved design of this mobile application closely mimics the over all appeal
of Microsoft Windows 8 Metro UI. Although during the year, Microsoft promised
to launch the series of most intelligent mobile apps as
well as services but due to some reasons it derailed the whole process of
development. The reason for derailing the whole process of applications launch
was the Microsoft’s collaboration with Nokia. As the result of this
collaboration, Microsoft paid more focus on the development of windows 8
software for Nokia and Sky Drive launch for Android phones got more
delayed.
Before the launch of this application in the month of August
2012, the dummy version of Sky Drive was released much earlier in the
Google play store. Today if you want to make the best use of the Sky Drive
application on Android phones, you would first need to upgrade your handsets to
Android 2.3 and much above versions on which this application can perform
its operations with a great ease.
Through Android app, you can get easy access to all the
documents you have saved on this Sky Drive services. This above mentioned
feature share some similar faculties with the apps of Windows and iOS phone.
For the office goers especially, Sky Drive can most surely be the best storage
device. Right from storing the heavy word files to using the notepad for instant
usage , you all together can perform wide array of tasks this mobile app. There
are many smart as well as Symbian phones available in the market who are
incapable of using the Sky Drive services. The mobile application
development team of some of the big brands although tried their best to create
the storage device or services similar to the Sky Drive but eventually they
were able to gain success up to the half way. No mobile application
development company in this world has been able to develop much
advance storage space or say services as like done by the Microsoft by
developing niche applications like Sky Drive.
Uses of Sky Drive:
As of now Android has joined hand with the Sky Drive, the
mobile phone application users can open all types of documents which have
recently been shared with you and other new documents which you are indeed
planning to open for performing some new tasks. With the help of Android apps,
you can most certainly open all types of documents and later on, you can upload
these documents on Sky Drive instantly. However for the offline usage, this
application doesn’t allows to cache the copied or local pages for the regular
user. All the documents can most certainly be opened through internet or valid
online connection. All together, an online 24 hours connectivity is indeed must
for using these services.
The improvements implemented by the Microsoft have in fact
pushed popularity of this application to new heights and right from a common
man to a big business magnet every one is utilizing this apps for the
personal as well as official use too. In the current scenario, Microsoft is
making its full attempt to promote two of its services which includes One Note
and other is SkyDrive. The reason why it is pushing these services in the
online world is its expectations to earn maximized returns on investments.
The other reason why this software giant is looking to promote this newly
launched applications is its desire to attain an edge over its other
competitors have their huge presence in the online world.
Future Scenario and Competence:
Sugar Sync, Drop Box, Google Drive and Apple’s I cloud are
some of the competing services with which SkyDrive has direct competition. But
still in-spite of the tough competition in the global IT market, Microsoft’s
SkyDrive has been able stand off beat in the crowd. With its whooping 7 GB
space, this mob app is much better and cheaper than other application
available on the online world. In this line, there are still immense
number of mobile application development companies who are trying to hatch a
deal with Microsoft and want to make their brands more famous. The name of
these companies haven’t been put in to lime light by world media.
