![]() ![]() First, SugarSync is a file syncing service. If you haven’t heard of SugarSync, check out the company’s promo video below: When the SugarSync people offered to give us a look at the service I jumped at the opportunity. When SugarSync upped its free storage total to 5GB from 2GB, it got my attention. I have been using DropBox for more than a year after seeing that my previous favorite – Windows Live Mesh – was not developing quickly enough. Can SugarSync measure up to DropBox? Is it worth the trouble to switch if you are already a DropBox user? We attempt to answer these questions. It has been a popular service, but admittedly stays in the shadows of the more ubiquitous and popular DropBox. All they can recommend is to wipe your account and re-sync all files.SugarSync automatically copies your chosen folders between multiple computers and makes them available online for later access and sharing. I have been in touch with SugarSync support staff multiple times and they are pleasant to work with, but for the most part, unhelpful. The idea of SugarSync is a great one, I love what it is supposed to do, I just have not had the success I hoped for. Since this happened, SugarSync does not sync files daily- it usually requires forced syncing. I had to manually delete everything from SugarSync and re-sync the folder for SugarSync to start working again. It has not worked out as promised by SugarSync videos.Īs far as doing an initial backup, SugarSync the program works great! Our account went over our storage limit once, we instantly removed some files, but since it went over it would no longer sync. My initial thought on SugarSync was for it to be constantly syncing our files without much oversight required. We use it to back up multi-million dollar project files and select assets daily. SugarSync is being used as a backup assurance for my company in our post-production department. Here, to remove the barrier of communication and to be synchronized with colleagues, SugarSync can contribute an important role, allowing us to stay in our comfort zone keeping all the works in the cloud up-to-date. It is also very much tough to collaborate with office colleagues with existing files when anyone is out of the office engaged in personal works. It is very terrible being forgotten to download the previous up-to-date necessary info while it is needed. ![]() As we need to work with the same docs from different parts of the institution, when it comes to SugarSync, I usually overlook memorizing to transfer the file and necessary docs because they exist in any department. Here, syncing is a very much crucial factor among other departmental devices while hosting a meeting with teachers and guardians as well. ![]() My institution generally manages many promotions for student admission every year and due to this reason, my institution's department needs to use different combinations of software and hardware. Only with Dropbox, but we were not satisfying due to its changeability. Since I started my new workplace, here in my present academic institution in 2015 I have been along with my many colleagues experiencing cloud applications for syncing between different departments.
