Nowadays we not only have to think about working with multiple computer – such as a home PC and one in the office, or even multiple personal computers – but also multiple devices such as phones and tablets. The process of manually keeping files synchronized and updated between multiple devices can quickly turn into an almost impossible task, but SugarSync is a free app that is on hand to help make things a great deal easier.
The app is available for iOS, Android, Windows and OS X and in a matter of minutes you can specify which of your folder would like to keep in sync. There is special treatment for photo and video files, and the app can be configured so that the moment your take a photo or shoot a video it will be immediately uploaded to your online storage. This is great not only because it means that the files can be accessed from other computers, but also because it serves as a backup.
The mobile version of the app acts much like a remote access tool as it can be used to move, delete and rename files you have stored on your computers and if you’re a music fans you’ll be pleased to discover that the app makes it possible to stream music from your online account. There are also a number of sharing options, so if you would like to make some of your files available to other people you can do so by taking advantage of Twitter, Facebook and email sharing from within the app.
SugarSync is an app that is comparable to the likes of Dropbox, but the way it handles automatic upload of photos and videos is very handy. The fact that there is client software available for so many platforms will be welcomed by many people who find that they are working with different devices on a daily basis and still need to be able to access the same files. When you sign up for an account you will automatically receive 5GB of storage space free of charge, but if you should find that this is not enough you do have the option of buying more space.
