The only possible contender to this is SkyDrive, but only if you had an existing account before they made the change.
SUGARSYNC VS SPIDEROAK FREE
There are plans that you can buy storage of 100GB and more, but all other services cap off free storage long before 32. Still with 32GB, SugarSync is the only service of it’s kind to offer such a generous amount of free storage. However, on the Features Comparison page, it shows “Up To 32GB,” so if anyone finds out for sure, I’d like to know. I haven’t found that anywhere, but I do know that in the past they haven’t as they’ve claimed some users have earned up to 200GB of free storage. To be honest, I am not sure if SugarSync currently puts a cap on their storage. Even if I had been using that method and running it every day when my computer broke down, I still would have been history because my files wouldn’t have been synced.
In the past I’ve set up my own system by using another program to sync files between my Dropbox (or other sync/backup application) and my local folders, but this means that those files are only updated when the program runs. The primary difference in having an “one folder sync” system versus having an “any folder sync” system is you don’t have to manually move or copy your files into that folder. So if you are thinking of trying out SugarSync for the first time, don’t think you won’t have that feature – you will. It’s kind of like having a Dropbox right in SugarSync… no, it IS having “Dropbox” right in SugarSync (just with a different name of course). This alone takes it a step above these other services. But the fact that SugarSync has this feature, along with enabling you to sync any folder on your computer too, is awesome. In fact it’s basically the same thing as Dropbox, Google Drive, SkyDrive and Box. The concept behind Magic Briefcase actually isn’t unique at all.
