Key notes
When you need to share sensitive files securely with your clients or coworkers, things get a little bit complicated.
The small ones will fit in your corporate email which hopefully is protected but what do you do with the bigger ones that you can’t attach?
Using a cloud storage platform like OneDrive, Google Drive, or Dropbox will help but those are not quite great for enterprise usage and are riddled with issues.
That’s why here we’re going to show you how to use Sync, a cloud-sharing solution that is fast, secure, and delivers great features for corporate usage.
How can Sync help you avoid common cloud storage issues?
Syncis used by over 1.7 million businesses and that proves its popularity among users all over the world.

By installing Sync, you won’t have to deal with any of these disruptive issues when you share your sensitive data.
How can I share files securely using Sync?
That’s it! This is how to share a file or a folder with Sync. The number of steps doesn’t make it justice because after you set up the folder and users you frequently send files to, all is going to be a lot faster.
Other Sync important features
Sync Pro includes document previews, which makes viewing your documents directly from your web browser easy, without downloading.
And for Microsoft Office 365 subscribers, Sync includes full integration with Office for the desktop, mobile, and web-based Microsoft document editor.
This makes secure collaboration easy because all edits will save automatically back to Sync!
With Sync, it’s also possible to manage the users and permissions right from your PC, without the need for file servers or email.
You will also access the activity logs for all users and file actions on shares, to keep track of any modifications.
And if someone deletes one of the documents, there’s absolutely no problem because you benefit from centralized, real-time backups that help you recover and restore them quickly.
If you create a free account, you get 5 GB of storage that can handle personal usage.Sync Proplans for business include up to unlimited cloud storage.
Also, you can have multiple administrative accounts that can handle all the activity, reset passwords, add users, and more.
And if you were wondering, there’s a centralized billing system with invoicing when you add new users to the account.
We also need to mention that you will also benefit from Slack integration and phone support with a great customer assistance team.
You won’t need to worry about security either. The end-to-end encryption permanently protects your data in the cloud from unauthorized access.
