SugarSync Specifications
|
Juggle your data with mobile access, storage, editing, sharing, backup, and syncing across devices.
SugarSync attempts to do what other services before it have done well--provide an extended storage solution for the iOS platform. However, due to limited upgrade options, it will only work for a certain group of people. While the focus on video and image backup is good on a device with a camera and far too little built-in storage, it doesn't offer more than its competitors to truly stand out.
SugarSync is very much like other cloud storage tools like Dropbox and Box.net. Sign up for a free account and you receive 5GB of storage that you can use for files on your device or computer. It installs on all iOS devices and syncs your files in the cloud. You can set it to automatically back up photos and videos, while setting the quality at which those files are backed up; and you can organize your files by content or photos fairly easily. Sharing is also easy with a separate set of sharing menus and contacts built into the app. All of this is well done and the result is a strong, cloud-based app with a media focus.
