I have generally enjoyed using BT Sync since about June and haven't run into some of the CPU problems other are mentioning. I use BTSync primarily for files that I was never really comfortable leaving my machine-- paper I scan, my work files, etc-- but would like to work on from multiple machines and have multiple copies of.
However, I have had at least two cases where a file somehow didn't completely sync and it was corrupted, totally unrecoverable. I am left feeling that versioning is the killer Dropbox feature that BT will never replace. I'm not sure what I'm going to do... I'm still using BTSync for a lot of stuff, but it has lost its trust.
- eli 12y agoI thought BTSync had an "archive" for previous versions. Or is that just deleted files? Either way, it seems like it'd be possible to add (at the expensive of additional complexity and disk usage)
- hobbes78 12y agoI believe there is an archive folder per machine, but it only stores files replaced at that machine during 30 days...
- wernercd 12y agoI haven't ran into corrupted file issues myself, but I have been fighting "Out of Sync" for awhile and will probably switch to something else myself if I can find something similar.
