Technology Tuesday

SugarSync is a file sync, online backup and file sharing service that enables realtors to manage their important data, anytime, anywhere, and now from any device. With the most generous, free sync-and-share offering for the Personal Cloud, realtors can securely backup and instantly access all of their most important files—thousands of documents, photos, songs, or other valued content—from any device they choose, regardless of their operating system or handset preference.

SugarSync is the only service that provides realtors a complete Personal Cloud.  It allows users the ability to upload and sync data from any folder on their computer.  It is also the only service that offers such broad device and OS support—from laptops to BlackBerry, Android-based phones and iPhones, and today’s most popular tablets, such as the iPad and Samsung Galaxy. 

We offer a free 5GB plan – no strings attached so you can see for yourself how useful the tool can be for your business.

Some Reasons Realtors Love SugarSync…

Secure, Automatic Data Protection
As you work, your files are continuously backed up to your secure, personal SugarSync website using SSL encryption. Once in our servers, all data is then encrypted with 128-bit AES. Learn More

Anywhere, Anytime Access
If you’ve got an Internet connection or a smart phone, you’ve got a mobile office. So take your BlackBerry to Bangkok, open your laptop in London – or just stop by an Internet café in Culver City. Wherever you go, your files will be waiting for you. Learn More

Sync Without Limits
With SugarSync, you can sync as many computers and mobile devices as you want on a single account — and changes saved on one computer are instantaneously synced among the rest. Learn More

Seamless Collaboration
Easily send files of any size to anyone, from anywhere. We’ll save your file versions and make sure the right data goes to the right team member, and they can send back an updated document in just a few clicks. Learn More

File Versioning
Have you ever saved over a document and immediately wished you hadn’t? With SugarSync, we’ll save, sync and back up the five latest versions of any given file — automatically. In a tough spot, it can be a real lifesaver. Learn More

Enjoy Your Photos and Music On the Go
We know there’s more to life (and backup) than work. That’s why SugarSync automatically organizes your photos into online albums for viewing and sharing, and allows you to stream your music limitlessly to any browser or iPhone. Learn More

Cross-Platform Functionality
You can use SugarSync on any modern version of Mac (including Snow Leopard) as well as any Windows operating system. Learn More

Customer Phone Support – Business Account
Our professional customer support agents can answer any questions you have about our Business service, from setup to setting storage limits. The call is free and it’s open to all Business Account administrators. Learn More

Administrative Control – Business Account
Our powerful administrative tools make it easy to customize your account, enable or disable users, and set storage limits for all your employees. And with pooled storage and centralized billing, keeping your whole company in sync is simpler than ever. Learn More

Don’t just take our word for it – here’s an endorsement from a realtor, Stan from California who wrote us to tell us how SugarSync works for him:

“SugarSync is quite possibly the most amazing resource we use for our business”

SugarSync is quite possibly the most amazing resource we use for our business. My partner and I are in real estate and had been looking for a system that would share files between my office, his office, our assistant’s office, our transaction coordinator and be able to access remotely on our laptops and from home without a tremendous amount of “file transfer” and duplicate files. Not only are we able to have an extreme ease of use in accessing files almost instantaneously even after changes are made, we are able to transfer LARGE files to our assistants, our clients, other agents, escrow officers, etc. with the ease of one click. We use a pretty nifty scanner that scans all of our documents to PDF files and because of SugarSync, we are nearly Paperless. We turn our files in complete to our office and to a Paperless scanning company that turns our files into an electronic disc. It saves time, money and trees and we recommend it to everyone we do business with. We find it an extremely affordable solution and a very necessary part of how we remain efficient in being one of the top real estate consultants in our company. Thank you SugarSync!
