SugarSync
SugarSync combines cloud file synchronization, online backup, file access and sharing. It lets users select folders to sync across all or chosen devices, and synced edits become available across devices after synchronization. Sharing can be limited to named people with viewing or editing access, or provided through public links. The service also includes file versioning, business admin controls and remote wipe: synced files can be removed from a Windows or Mac computer while remaining in the cloud. Mobile users can access, share and manage files on iOS and Android. SugarSync runs on Android, iOS, macOS, web and Windows. Personal storage plans list 100 GB for $750 a month, 250 GB for $1,000 a month, 500 GB for $1,900 a month, and 1 TB for free. Business 1000 GB costs $55 a month and lists admin controls, live phone support and computer remote wipe; Business Custom is for 10+ users, with no price listed. Plans include a 30-day free trial, and hosting is in the United States.
