SugarSync
SugarSync is a cloud storage and file synchronization service that allows users to back up and sync local folders from their Mac across devices and the cloud. Unlike Dropbox and other services that require files to be placed in a dedicated cloud folder, SugarSync lets you select any existing folder on your computer to keep synchronized. The app provides file versioning, selective sync, encryption, and integrates with email for file sharing. It targets home users and small teams who need flexible folder-level backup and cross-device synchronization.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionSugarSync has been discontinued by its developer and is no longer receiving updates or support. The search results indicate the app was last updated in May 2022, with the final version being 4.1.3. The Intel build will continue to run under Rosetta 2 today, but Apple is removing Rosetta in macOS 28 (September 2028), so this app will stop launching entirely at that point. Given that the service itself appears to be inactive, you should migrate your synced data and folder configurations to an actively maintained alternative as soon as possible. Dropbox, Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, and iCloud Drive all run natively on Apple Silicon and offer similar or better synchronization features. If you rely on SugarSync's specific folder-selection workflow, Dropbox or OneDrive are the closest alternatives and both let you sync arbitrary local folders (Dropbox via selective sync, OneDrive via "Always keep on this device" settings). Begin archiving your SugarSync data before September 2028.
