The problem

Why this is hard without the right tool

Onboarding packs drift over time. One manager has the current handbook and another is still sending last year's. New starters end up with a mixed bag of documents and no idea what is current.

How Orbis Drive helps

Step by step

  1. 1

    Build an Onboarding folder

    Include handbook, policies, forms and how-to guides.

  2. 2

    Invite the new starter

    Send the invitation on their first day, tied to their work email address.

  3. 3

    Star the essentials

    Help them spot what matters most.

  4. 4

    Keep personal records elsewhere

    Remember every member can see everything in a workspace, so keep HR records in a separate, restricted workspace.

Useful for this

Features and guides used here

Invite colleagues with a secure link

Workspace owners create an invitation for a specific email address, then send that person the private link. Only that address can accept it.

Clear roles, easy to understand

Two simple roles, owner and member, mean everybody knows who can do what, and removing access takes a single action.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Should we store employee records here?

Only in a separate workspace limited to the people authorised to see them, because members can see all files in a workspace.

What happens when someone leaves?

The owner removes them from the Team page. Their access ends and the files stay put.

How much does it cost to get started?

Nothing. Free includes 5 GB and every tool. Paid plans start at £2.99 a month for 100 GB when you need more space.

Your files, organised. Your team, connected.
