SugarSync doesn’t seem to generate the same amount of buzz as DropBox amongst the cool kids, the service offers a very strong (and enterprise-friendly) synchronization and backup platform. The company has just outed a new enhancement which makes SugarSync an even better option for power users who like extra control measures: mobile device management.

In the SugarSync web interface, the devices section now lets you view all the files and folders which are currently synced to your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. Transferring files has gotten easier as well, as SugarSync’s desktop app now offers direct uploading to iOS devices — and support for Android and BlackBerry will be arriving in the near future.  When new files are uploaded to your cloud storage, SugarSync will send a push notification to your device to let you know that they’re available for syncing. For a look at how the new mobile device management features work, have a look at screencast embedded below.

The company has also updated its BlackBerry app recently to bring it up to date with the SugarSync apps for Android and iOS.

  1. Sugarsync has been stepping it up in a big way and this direct push to mobile devices is awesome.
    I have really been using SugarSync over the other accounts i’ve tested (including dropbox, box.net & live mesh) b/c of the new features and ease of use.
    Here’s the link for the full 5.5GB free space http://bit.ly/SugarSync500MBBonusAlso, after you sign up and install it you can get an additonal 500MBs by running through their tutorials (which is helpful to know how to use the service anyway). So at the end of the day, you’re getting TRIPLE the free storage of Dropbox.
