"Content Distribution for iPads and backup"

5/5

What do you like best about SugarSync?

This product has multiple uses--it is an on-line backup application, but we have used it for so much more than that. We have a virtual client within our network that our marketing department can send a video, PDF, picture, Word document etc to and then SugarSync syncs it up to the cloud--then all of our field users can open up SugarSync on their iPad, iPhone or Android device and sync the latest changes to their iPads. It allows for our 2gb+ of multimedia content to be synced to everyone's devices in off-line format for presentations wherever they are. All of the content is played within the slick program on the device and allows for sorting in folders (based on the structure within our virtual computer). It has improved our sales process drastically--it's a shame that Apple or Google doesn't have something more native like this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SugarSync?

Sometimes an iPad will stop syncing & have to re-sync, but even with 2gb+ of data, it doesn't take that long. It would be nice if there was some functionality that allowed for our users to click on multiple contents and then send an email to a client with a hyperlink to each of the documents or videos.

Recommendations to others considering SugarSync:

Talk to someone about the pricing--we were able to get an enterprise account & only have one user account for all of our field people that has READ ONLY access to the content. Then we have the admin account on our virtual computer allowing us to push, modify or delete the content from there. It works really well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Most Compatible File Sharing System"

4/5

What do you like best about SugarSync?

SugarSync is a great tool for storing your data in the cloud. They are the most compatible solution to-date (meaning they support more devices than any other service), and they are affordable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SugarSync?

They say you can get up to 32GB free (you start with 5GB), but I have yet to figure out how to get even close to that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
