Syncplicity vs. OneDrive for Business (ODB) Finding A Solution That Users Love & IT Trusts When it comes to enterprise file sync and share capabilities, not all solutions make the cut. Users and IT expect a seamless user experience that drives engagement and delivers the controls necessary to protect content. Syncplicity is an award-winning solution with a gold-standard user experience that allows internal and external users to seamlessly access, sync, and share content across devices, and has the most comprehensive and granular IT controls to manage file sharing across the enterprise. Key Differences Between Syncplicity and OneDrive for Business Robust Enterprise File Sync & Share Solution - Syncplicity allows users to sync, access, and share content with internal and external collaborators across devices. Users can sync and share files of any size and turn any folder on their desktop into a sync folder for real-time backup. Microsoft ODB lacks fundamental file sync and share capabilities and isn’t optimized for mobile. Users cannot share files/folders with the OneDrive app. External users have no access to shared content on mobile. The solution is positioned as a personal library, with users encouraged to use SharePoint for collaboration. It also has a 2GB file size limit, only allows 20K files/folders to sync at once, and does not provide data back-up. Seamless Collaboration – Syncplicity users can send secure shared links to internal and external users. The solution allows external users to be added to sync folders and for content to sync to their desktop. With Microsoft ODB, folders shared with external users do not sync to their devices, thus breaking external collaboration. Centralized Management, Controls & Security – Syncplicity’s robust and centralized admin console allows IT to easily deploy and manage the solution across the enterprise. Syncplicity has over 30+ policies that can be assigned to groups. Syncplicity allows policies at the user, group, and account level for maximum flexibility and security. For example, external file sharing can be disabled for the M&A group and enabled for the Marketing team. Microsoft ODB has virtually no management capabilities. There is no dedicated admin console. Policies applied via SharePoint are inadequate. Policy-Driven Hybrid Cloud Offering - Syncplicity delivers a policy-driven hybrid cloud that enables enterprises to decide where to store data and provides the flexibility to move content across on-premise, cloud, EMC storage, and non-EMC storage. With MSFT ODB, content has to be in the public cloud. © 2007-2015 Syncplicity LLC. All Rights Reserved.
