Excellent solution for creating, sharing and backing up files in the remote working era
The way that folders and files can be browsed to by each user within their finder window. Even though you are browsing files stored entirely in the cloud (not locally), it FEELS like you are accessing documents right from your machine. And as they are added, changed, deleted, etc., your folder structure adjusts behind the scenes without you having to do anything manual to cause the syncing.
CONSInitial rollout of the software takes a little while. Given the volume of folders and files we have in our system, we have to have a machine stay "awake" and online for 8 - 12 hours to fully index everything and build the folder structure in a new user's finder window. Also I wish I could add seat licenses as I need them one by one, not in chunks of 5.
Reason for choosing Syncplicity
The solution just seemed to be natively configured in a way that was more of a match for our workflow and sharing needs.

It is just ok
I'm mostly using this product to share data with our external partners. I can share any document I want with our external partners and it is really easy to upload.
PROSI can name 2 things I like the most about this software; 1) if you want to share multiple files you can put them in a folder and share the folder itself at one go 2) the speed of data upload is very satisfactory
CONSYou can't share a single file as it is, but it must be placed under a folder to be shared

A secure way of file sharing
If you want to share or store your files in a secure way then syncplicity is one of the best options. Enterprise level common usage really makes it a good choice as most of the partners to your company would be probably using it. I've never had issues during file sharing with syncplicity so far. Therefore it is a robust choice as well.
PROSOne of the things about online sharing platforms is mostly having a simple and user friendly interface. It is easy to use for most users. It is really secure (business level). This is also the case for syncplicity. Another good thing is option to use in different platforms; via browser or IOS or Android mobile apps.I mostly use syncplicity for business needs. Most of the companies uses it so it's really make sense to use it. This enables our partners and team members keep their connection alive.
CONSIt is not hard to find many issues for syncplicity as I'm using it enterprise level. Not sure of storage issues. In the very beginning I had some issues when create folder and file orders; but got used to it by asking some help. Syncing multiple files can be painful sometimes. I assume there are minor issues when compared to overall performance.

Syncplicity Offers a Solution Few Others Do
I already use SugarSync, which is one of the other pieces of sync software that allow you to pick the folders you'd like to sync. For a client, I needed to use a different one and there are surprisingly few of them out there. Syncplicity does the job and it does it well.
PROSThe main selling point to Syncplicity, as opposed to other sync software that keeps your files updated on your different device, is that it allows you to choose which folders you are syncing. This differs from the "Dropbox model," where you have to put all your folders under a specific parent folder. There are times where you can't rearrange your hard drive to put everything in one place and things need to stay where they are. It is here where Syncplicity shines.
CONSThe functionality is very good, but the features are a little sparse, especially in terms of the web interface. It would be nice if you could "sync" to an external hard drive , too (which you can't). It would also be nice to be able to eliminate a folder that resides in a parent folder that otherwise syncs.

Secure, but not user friendly
It's a simple way for file sharing securely, but user experience needs to be improved by considering feedback.
PROSIt allows you to login with your company account name and password. You can drag and drop multiple files. It offers you to add any people to whom you share data and assign them as editor or reader only. Upload speed is quite fast. Deleted items can also be seen that you can restore or permanently delete.
CONSNo way to share a single file only. You must create a folder and then share out of your organisation. There is no search option to find uploaded files. No specific application on any operating system, you only use over web.

PROSVery good product for file sharing that helps a lot for working with clients which keeps the history of sharing so can get the records any time that I want.

Does it’s job
Overall, syncplicity does what it is intended to do. It takes a while to figure out the design, but then it is fine to use.
PROSI like that the software makes it easy to store files without much effort. The software does its job of automatically backing up all files I save at the point of use.
CONSWhen first using the software, it can be difficult locate the files that you are actually saving. My company had syncplicity already installed on my computer, so when I went in for the first time to find my files it wasn’t completely intuitive. When I had a folder shared with me from another colleague, it was difficult for me to find and access it.

Exactly as needed
We have had issues in the past with syncing software across all mobile devices. We did a bunch of research for other syncing companies and we went with syncplicity. Since then, we have used this for many other applications, backup of critical documents, syncing across many laptops. This works extremely well in all areas. We have 130 seats and have never had an issue with any of them. We did however have an issue with a cryptolocker virus which syncplicity wasn't able to handle that well. It infected the backup which infected other users of a shared folder. restoring of files and excruciating but since had back a dedicated backup software we were able to use that instead
PROSEase of use does what it intends to do speed
CONSPrice could be a little cheaper and restoring from previous dates could be a lot easier.

Syncplicity: cloud storage and synchronization with bare-bones free tier
Syncplicity allows me to store my files and documents in the cloud and synchronize them to my devices easily. While light on features, their free plan delivers what it promises (although with rather slow speeds). It's a no-frills, free alternative that works fine.
PROSIn my opinion, Syncplicity has the following advantages: 1. It's cross-platform. Syncplicity runs on Mac, Windows, iPhone, iPad and Android devices. 2. It's free. Syncplicity has a free plan for personal use with sufficient storage space to meet users' basic needs. 3. It's developed by experienced professionals. The company that develops Syncplicity was founded by professionals who worked at Microsoft.
CONSI think these are the disadvantages of Syncplicity: 1. It's very basic. Although it works fine, the free version for personal use is rather lackluster. 2. It's rather sluggish at times. This may depend on several different aspects, like the computer that runs Syncplicity and the quality of the internet connection. 3. It's quite expensive for corporate users. Syncplicity has a pricing model that can accumulate quickly.
