New Google Drive Sync App Released

Announcement posted by Syncdocs 22 Apr 2012

New version of popular Google Docs tool lets users access files online
Syncdocs is a new hybrid application that turns Google Docs into a free online storage drive. This Google drive is accessible from any PC or mobile.

With Syncdocs, Google Docs is simply accessed as the G-Drive on the local PC. Files and folders across multiple PCs and mobile devices stay in sync automatically. Anything saved to these folders is automatically mirrored online and across all linked PCs and users. Syncdocs can also integrate with other cloud storage providers, like Dropbox to sync Dropbox to Google Docs.

Syncdocs takes full advantage of Google's fast, reliable online storage - it keeps PC folders synchronized with Google and with other users.

In addition to providing file sync and online backup, Google documents are available right from the user’s Windows desktop. This means that Microsoft Office is no longer necessary to open or create Word, PowerPoint or Excel files on the PC. Moving to cloud computing used to mean abandoning the desktop, but with Syncdocs, users can work simultaneously in both cloud and desktop environments.

For easy collaborative work, Syncdocs also supports merging of changes from various users. It can even merge changes between desktop and cloud users. If multiple users make edits to a document concurrently, these changes are merged. For example, a user can edit a Google Doc offline using Microsoft Word, and then merge these changes back into Google Docs.

“Syncdocs gives you the freedom to access your data where you want it,” said Donald Recsei, Syncdocs’ product manager. “With Syncdocs and Google Docs, it’s really easy to collaborate between desktop Microsoft Office users, and sales staff on tablets and phones”.

Users can fine-tune their synchronization to Google Drive with many advanced features like:
- full versioning and revision history
- scheduled backup
- full control over which files and folders at synchronized
- mirroring of Google access rights locally
- real-time collaboration between Google Docs and Microsoft Word users
- easy file sharing integration into Facebook, Twitter, Gmail and Google +

The full version of Syncdocs is free, users are only charged when syncing a large number of files. The free download of the latest version of Syncdocs is available at http://syncdocs.com
