"Backup all your stuff: upload it to the cloud"

Reviewer rating

5/5

Awesome app

SugarSync is a web storage service based on cloud computing which makes all your data from all your devices accessible wherever you are

SugarSync works similar to Dropbox, MobileMe or Carbonite but there's a difference: instead of just creating folders on the cloud, it allows you to integrate your PC an other devices into the app. Thus, you will have you Home PC, Laptop, Office PC... all of them integrated into the app to share your files between them and your Android by sync. As used to happen with the most of them, you have to create a SugarSync account first. You can do it from the website or from the app. You will get 5 GB of free online storage.

Let's zoom on its features. The user-friendly interface overcomes others apps of this style: there's a top bar with just 3 tabs: "files", where you have a main menu with quick access files, sugarsync folders and devices, and then, "photos", where the pictures you have taken will be uploaded, and "shared", with those folders shared with others users or devices.

Besides breaking down the physical walls to get access to all our data, it works as a perfect backup too, specially for our photos, that can be automatically upload to the cloud. An added value feature is the music streaming (you can play it online or local while you are using other apps). You can view all the folders offline and download them fast online. If you make any change in files and folders in your computer, Sugarsync will automatically sync it.

SugarSync has been developed by SugarSync Inc, the well-known web storage service based on cloud computing. They've done a great work of adapting their service to Android platform.

5GB free storage in the cloud, Auto photo-sync, sync from all your devices, music streaming and many other options are enough reasons to regard this app, one of the best cloud computing-based app. 100% recommendable.

Developer's original description available here

Have you ever been away from home or the office and realized you need a file that is on your computer? SugarSync puts ALL of your data from all of your computers right at your fingertips…anytime, anywhere from your Android device. With SugarSync, you get free cloud backup that you can use to sync files, share folders, and access your data directly from your Android device. If you like Dropbox, iCloud, or Carbonite, you’ll love SugarSync.

But don’t just take our word for it. Experts agree that SugarSync is the leader online backup, mobile sync, and file sharing. Here’s what a few industry experts have said:

SugarSync "is by far the best solution I have tested to replicating and synchronizing your files across multiple computers. It really works." – Walt Mossberg, Wall Street Journal

"Using SugarSync to manage your files is a lifesaver and I think it is the only sane way to edit documents on the go" – John Biggs, TechCrunch

In addition, the app is perfect for photo and video backup and sync. Just take a photo using your device’s camera. Period. Behind the scenes, SugarSync will detect the new photo, back it up to the Cloud, and sync it to your computers. No thinking, wires, or emails to yourself. It just works. This feature also works great for automatic file and folder sync.

Using this app, you can: 

* Get anytime, anywhere access to all of your files, photos, and music
* Automatically back up and sync photos & videos to your computers (no wires needed)!
* Share any file or folder, even if it’s huge, over email, Facebook, Twitter, or even SMS.
* Stream your entire music collection, even while you use other apps
* Download files or entire folders for fast, offline viewing
* Make edits to any file and will SugarSync automatically sync it to all your computers
* And much more!

If you don’t have an account, you can sign up from the app and get 5 GB of free online storage. To get real-time access to files from your computers, don’t forget to install the free SugarSync application on your PC or Mac. For more information, visit www.sugarsync.com.

    I love being able to find my files in the same folders across all of my devices. No other software does this and it makes so much easier to create a robust filing system instead of having to sort through tons of random files in one folder ala Dropbox. It
