    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.

    WordPatterns is very easy to use and keeps a direct line of communication with updates for your team and Manager(s). This tool takes collaboration way past the likes of Microsoft Teams. With everyone having an idea of your activities, information can easily be shared with useful and effective suggestions being provided by one and all. Timelines are easier to address and the level of precedence given to tasks can increase as well as decrease. It is easier to set achievable goals and the rest of the team can be involved in this process, to help reduce the time taken and to complete projects in time and on schedule. In terms of having direct communication with Management, it is invaluable as information can be sent there and then or later on. There is less of the cumbersome messaging involved in other Apps. It's also great for Appraisal/Performance reviews etc.

    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

    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.

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

    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.
