User Testimonials
OpenText Brava!SugarSync
Likelihood to Recommend
- If you need to review a lot of documents and don't want to spend a lot of money with all needed software licenses, this product is good. - If you have a document with sensitive information that you would like to share to someone but removing that sensitive part, you can create a view and share with them. - The tool ensures the content is not leaving the repository and source file can't be edited. All companies have scenarios to preserve compliance.

As with all file sharing, remote teams - the combination of being able to work alongside colleagues - or remotely (including "on a plane" / without Internet) - but always have your files saved locally makes it very easy to adopt.

  • It’s a subtle but important difference in how it works because we have to manage the process a little bit more but it also means also SugarSync can possibly fit better into
  • your productivity work style, especially if you’ve got a really good system of file
  • management, stuff that you already use whereas in Dropbox, if you have a file system, management system you already use and you want to share those files, you have to move them into Dropbox which might break your system
  • SugarSync requires just a little bit more forethought.

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

SugarSync has solid security. It uses AES 256-cycle to scramble your records extremely still and the TLS show to get them coming. I can open the actual document and I can work on it, save it, and now it’s the same on my notebook as it is in the sync in the Cloud and here on my desktop. So it works very simply and effectively from that perspective. Before I finish though, I do want to show you mobile access because mobile access is increasingly important for all of these different services that we’re talking about. For SugarSync, having access to our iPhone, iPad, or our Android device is also crucial. So here we see my iPhone is up and I’m going to go into my Productivity tab here

  • I've used it for 9 years, so the impact is definitely positive. It has enabled me to always feel confident that I won't lose my data.
  • At times when I have accidentally saved-over rather than saved-as, the versioning tool allows me to quickly find the old version and recover it.
  • The mobile application makes my data available to me at all times - increasing my ability to do business from anywhere.
