    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.

    If you don't want to have any spam or malware in your mailbox, Symantec Email Security.cloud is the solution to choose. Also, if you need to have some security features, like DLP, it has them embedded!
    We have also been using reporting a lot to see how many emails have been sent, where they delivered, and so on.

    Pros
    Ziff Davis Inc
    • 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

    • Advanced scanning of email and threats beyond simple Antispam services
    • Sandbox testing of attachments prior to delivery of email to test against malicious threats such as Ransomware
    • Spearphishing prevention to avoid impersonation attacks and potential wire transfer requests

    Cons
    Ziff Davis Inc
    • 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.

    • Outbound encryption could be improved to allow for advanced connections to other organizations' PKI keyservers.
    • The user interface could be a little more friendly, finding advanced features sometimes takes a little more time with hunting and clicking to get to the correct page.

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

    In very tricky cases, it takes time to explain it to the support personnel as they don't get your problem from the first couple of emails.

    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.

    Barracuda's ESS is the premier product, it boasts outbound email encryption as an included service as well as all of the security features of Symantec Email Security.cloud. Sophos is on the same level as SES.c but is not quite as feature rich.

    • We achieved faster project collaboration with SugarSync.

    • Our previous solution was very manual. The ROI has been in less manual intervention from the admins and freeing up their already busy schedules.
