TOTAL FRAUD -- DELETE Sounded like a good idea in the beginning. Devolved into a money-grabbing scheme. Not worth the grief or risk – deleted months ago... moved on.

I found you can install this without having to logout and back in as an admin if you use Limit Point’s LaunchasRoot http://www.limitpointstore.com/products/launchasroot/

I've been using SugarSync since it's inception. I've found it fast, stable, great support the few times I've needed them (like when a referral link didn't give me credit), and it doesn't' slow down my PC. I was bummed out they don't offer a free plan anymore, but it's worth paying for as I need more than just the free amount of space for my business. All in all I like what I get with them.

The worst company ever. I paid $80 for account for 1 years and weeks later they dropped support for 10.6.8 Snow Leopard. They told me I have to buy new computer if I can't upgrade to Mavericks. So I can't get my money back. I think $80 per year is pretty fat for such a service. Don't recommend at all!

I dropped SugarSync when they abruptly discontinued their "free" offering, and started charging for any amount of storage (in vast contrast to other cloud solutions). Also did not see any advantage to their offering over other services. There's lots of alternatives out there that don't gouge you like this one.

Im not gonna pay monthly fee for any web services! Never! I'm willing to pay a one-time free is a service is outstanding and useful, not paying it monthly? Absolutely no. And especially considered that there are many better services (dropbox, box, onedrive, copy etc) out there and free of charge.

Since the "similar software" is not finding it, look at BitTorrent Sync if all you want is to sync files between devices anywhere you have an internet connection. There is no need for your files to be stored in any server along the way. Do a general search here at MU or go to http://www.bittorrent.com/sync. You do not need any servers... cloud or otherwise... to sync. Though still in beta at this time, I have been using it since release without a glitch. Read the PDF manual for how to refine both what it does and how it does it to control impact upon your local network. It can be easily refined. And yes it is free. [I am not associated to this package / group / project in any way.]

It was OK while it was free and I used it for some years without problems. But paying a monthly fee for it? No. There are just too many competitors that offer the same or better for free.

I've UNINSTALLED SugarSync. They've gone to a PAID model for their slow, and buggy storage solution. DropBox may not be perfect - but the options, utility, and stability far-surpass anything SugarSync can offer. SugarSync is EOL and SOL in my book.

I have just received a mail informing me that the service will charged from Feb 2014 (there will no longer be the smaller free service), so I would suggest looking for another solution unless you intend to utilise a paid service.

The new version works very well, but the options for displaying status icons for files and folders I had to turn off in preferences. For me, causing problems in cooperation with the program XtraFinder. The rest works OK, a lot of useful features and a nice interface. You can sync any folder on your computer, so you do not need to change the directory structure on the disk (eg Dropbox need to use a separate program to creating symbolic links: MacDropAny - otherwise you have to use Dropbox folder subfolders)

I have been using both Sugarsync and Dropbox for some time, with a longer use of Dropbox. Both are good, with a better note for Dropbox, For the time being, SS interface seems a little bit unnecessarily complicated, but it does its job very well. I may be unjust with 3 1/2 stars, but do hope that its developers may offer a better product, even if free. Note that Finder crashed and restarted after upgrading to the last version, but otherwise seems a good and robust product.

Your link is not correct - it does not go to the new SugarSync beta - it goes to a version incompatible with current Intel Macs.
