Windows 10: Best way to share files small business

HI folks, newbie here


We have a small business of approx 8 or so office workers. We all have one drive.


But what I want to know is, without a physical server etc, what is our best way of being able to access, share and edit files from a central location.

I've read about SharePoint and just wondering if this will tick my boxes


Any help much appreciated


Thanks

Dell Celebrates Small Business Month in a Big Way

Once a small business founded by Michael Dell in his dorm room, Dell understands the challenges faced by small business owners and is heavily invested in supporting, growing and celebrating today's small business sector. In celebration of the U.S. Small Business Association's (SBA) Small Business Week, Dell is kicking off spectacular deals, new products, a local community pop-up experience dedicated to small businesses and two days of live streamed learning sessions on topics small business owners want to know about most - from financing and technology to data security and productivity.

While the U.S. Small Business Association celebrates Small Business Week the first month in May, Dell has decided to celebrate small businesses with hot deals that will last all month long. The company will offer up to 40% off select small business PCs throughout May and introduce new Vostro laptops and desktops in the U.S. that specifically cater to small businesses. Additionally, Dell has launched a new campaign, "Nothing Small about Your Business," that highlights the power and potential of small business contributions to society.




"We are proud to come together with the community to celebrate small businesses during Small Business Week," said Erik Day, Vice President and General Manager, Dell Small Business. "Our research shows that small businesses are unique in their needs and that they desire products and solutions tailored for them. We are delivering that with our Vostro portfolio of small business devices."
