If you often get lead lists for import, large databases, a lot of users manipulating data regularly, then this is very necessary. Otherwise, I wouldn't see a huge need. I will say that we have found more cost effective apps that have a little more what we need as far as customization and more features.
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.
User friendly & easy to navigate. I don't have a lot of time to learn brand new processes, so the ease of dupecatcher saved me a lot of time that I would normally spend hours doing manual work, merging duplicates.
"Ignore" some apps don't allow you to ignore dupes, as some may know this is absolutely necessary sometimes.
Alerts that notify SF users when they are creating duplicates.
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.
We had DupeCatcher first, but did demo a few other similar products and decided to go with a different product due to the fact that they had a lot more features, customization, and excellent customer service.
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.
Any tool that can catch duplicates is something almost any CRM using company needs. So obviously this will always have a positive impact on a company.
I wouldn't say we had a negative impact but we were able to find tools that did what DupeCatcher does and them some with a higher price tag, but you get a lot more features, and in my opinion what you would want/need/expect out of a dupe catcher.
