Auto Sync Files Multiple Computers

[The_Rural_Juror]

Hey Beyond. I would like to auto sync files among a few computers. Is a Synology NAS going to cut it, or is there a better solution?

Dropbox w/ local folder.

We have 14 machines over 4 provinces in our engg group and we use integration of sharepoint (365) for our word/excel/ppt/notes and dropbox w/ local file sync for our cad/solidworks/ProE files.

Yea I use Dropbox for that, have been using it to keep files synced between desktop and laptop for years. but damn near any cloud document service will do that for you.

0 need to have a local NAS for simple document sync.

How much are we talking about? I love dropbox for myself. Bonus that it's cloud.
2gb is basic, and I think we each get 500mb if you sign up through referral.

DSynchronize, as long as they're on the same network. Used it for years.

Don't be turned off by the AltaVista style site.

what kind of files and what o/s is on each computer? if it's just personal docs/pics/music and all are Windows where you login with a MS account, then OneDrive would be a great option. Add/edit/delete in your onedrive on one machine, and it will sync to the cloud and to all other computers when you login.

I think you get 1GB for free and 5TB if you happen to pay for a O365 subscription.

Even for terabytes it’s probably just cheaper to use a cloud service.
