Sync.com

Sync.com is a cloud storage, file synchronization, and secure file-sharing platform developed by Sync.com Inc. The company was founded in 2011 by Thomas Savundra, Suhan Shan, and Darius Antia.

The service supports web access, desktop synchronization, mobile access, team folders, shared links, file requests, version history, deleted-file recovery, and cloud-only storage through Sync Vault. Its product positioning centers on end-to-end encryption and privacy-focused access controls.

Sync.com serves individuals, businesses, and teams that need private document storage or controlled file exchange. Its documented compliance materials include HIPAA, PIPEDA, GDPR, and SOC 3-related information.

Sync creates a synchronized folder on Windows and macOS computers. Files placed there upload to the cloud and become available across connected computers, mobile devices, and the web panel.

Users can share files and folders through links, create team shared folders, request uploads, apply permissions, set passwords and expiry dates, and use custom branding on selected plans.

The platform includes file version history, deleted-file recovery, remote device lockout, camera uploads, offline mobile access, file previews, video streaming, and Sync Vault for cloud-only storage.

Sync supports opening and editing supported Office documents through Microsoft 365 Online for eligible plans. The company also documents integrations with Microsoft Office desktop, web, and mobile applications.
