We are in the age now that we need all of our pictures, music, and files at our fingertips at all times. Now, it is common to have a Mac, PC, and blackberry or iPhone. Between home and work, it is common to either VPN into work or use some product, such as GoToMyPC or LogMeIn to remotely access your office or home computer while away. The whole point is to stay in command of your files wherever you are.
Now, you don’t have to worry about remoting in here or there. You can use SugarSync which will do it all for you. Here’s what you get from SugarSync:
- Automatic synchronization of files from PCs, Macs, and mobile devices. There is no limit of how many computers you can sync. This means you can say what to sync, and voila…all your computers will have access to these updated files.
- Automatic backups
Pricing starts at $2.49/month for 10GB and all the way up to $25/month for 250GB of storage. We have implemented this solution for a few clients and found good results. Just make sure not to have duplicate name folders that you’re syncing (i.e. My Documents) or one computer can save over another duplicate named folder.
