Update: In this review, I note Dropbox’s inability to stream music as a playlist as one of it’s drawbacks compared to SugarSync.
#DROPBOX BUSINESS VS MOZYPRO CLOUD BACKUP UPDATE#
See the update for a summary of this review and a roundup of some of the good points raised in the discussion. Update: It’s been quite some time since I originally posted this review, and commenters have done a groovy job of chiming in with some great feedback and testimonials. So, without any further ado, here’s an investigation of what those differences are, and if they add up to SugarSync being a Dropbox killer.
But it seems like SugarSync has a couple of things to offer that Dropbox doesn’t. Granted, this chart is somewhat dated, as Dropbox has closed the gap on at least the business plans front with Dropbox for Teams. Dropbox and the other cloud storage/folder syncing heavyweights: MobileMe, Box.net, Carbonite, and Mozy.Īs expected, most of the checkmarks were grouped beneath the first two columns, with SugarSync winning out with a few key features, namely: backup to any folder, upload/sync via email, selectively sync any folder, simple editing of files through the web, send files of any size, stream music to a web browser or smartphone, business plans and support for BlackBerry, Symbian and Windows Mobile. I must not be the only one who feels this way, because right there on the front page of SugarSync’s website is a link to a comparison chart between SugarSync vs. At first blush, SugarSync struck me as the Dropbox alternative that I never asked for. So, when an assignment to review SugarSync came across my desk ( not really, MrGroove didn’t give me a desk…), I raised a skeptical eyebrow. I’m a Dropbox man-always have been, always will be.
Best security practice for both: encrypt your important documents using TrueCrypt or BoxCryptor. SugarSync hasn’t gotten any heat, but likely suffers from the same vulnerabilities.
SugarSync has native support for music playback on the web and for smartphones.Dropbox allows you to share files up to 1 GB via public links or email.
