ProsLight weight, ultra functional software

ConsNo automatic mobile photo backup

Bottom LineSugarSync is simple, lightweight, and works extremely well with multiple devices. You do not have to move files into a Sync Folder to sync them across the cloud. Management is simple and they are generous with the amount of space they give you.
