Dropbox Or Onedrive for personal use

Hi experts,

I want to install either Onedrive or Dropbox for personal use.
So:

1- What are the "Advantages / Disadvantages" of each one?
2- Which copy will overwrite the other; Client Copy Or Server Copy?


Thanks a lot in advance.

Of the two choices you mention, I personally prefer Dropbox right now.  I find it faster and easier to work with than OneDrive, although I know Microsoft keeps improving.  Dropbox just seems to work well, including the mobile integration.  I like the simple way it just looks like another folder on Windows, and just works.
