    As a part-time employee, it would be better if I was able to book leave on an hourly basis. Also, to be able to set up two leave types, paid and unpaid, and accrue lieu time.

    When doing daily jobs, if you’re sharing large files, I think Dropbox works a lot better but if you have a system where you’re working within that system and you want to be able to work with that system and have certain folders that you have access to all the time then SugarSync might be just the ticket.

    • Sync files in any folder - rather than forcing you to store them in a certain place (Although this can be confusing too)
    • Works in the background - although this is true for all
    • You can share with others - including those who do not use SugarSync

    • Can only think of one thing. I have helped others to get going with SugarSync and they if they have problems it is understanding the cloud.... So maybe (if it dosen't exist already) I would like to have a animation of the proces with "flying" folders between desktops, clouds etc. Otherwise SugarSync is just great.

    1. Freemium model is the ideal marketing for an app like this. 2. Now their sync methods with Android are worse

    Both the above work in different ways and provide different services to CharlieHR, although if we could use a single app for all, that would be better.

    SugarSync, like all solutions, has its place in the data storage stack within a company. The main reason SugarSync is better than the other solutions is that it enables me to leave my hard drive organized and keep my existing file trees. I don't have to constantly move or copy files to a specific folder if I want them backed up.
