Thread: Remote file sharing

I'm looking for some remote file sharing options. I've been using Dropbox and I'm concerned about security. Dropbox has a business option where a single user can have admin rights, but the other team members will still be using personal accounts that the admin will have no control over other than file sharing permissions. I'm specifically speaking of the account password. There's no way that I can mandate the minimum requirements of the account passwords of my team members unless I create the accounts myself.

I'm looking for a cloud based file sharing alternative that does not have more than just one single account. Does anybody have any recommendations?

Google Drive, SkyDrive..(Free) Sharepoint (Costs)

Don't use dropbox, they were hacked 2 times in the last year.

Of all the options..Sharepoint is probably the most secure and most discretionary in it's user control.

How does Sugarsync compare to the ones you listed, specifically with Sharepoint? I saw an online review (Top Cloud Services for File Sharing and Syncing | TechHive). SkyDive was included in the review but Sugarsync was said to be the best of those in the review.

I don't mind if it costs money. It's worth it to ensure the files are secure.

Sharepoint allows you to control your compliance issues such as HIPPA and PCI. Sugarsync is good but doesn't provide that sort of control.

I've got a dropbox account, skydrive account and a dumptruck account.

Dumptruck came with my giganews account along with a vyper vpn account. Truth to tell... I've never used any of the cloud services but I do know that dumptruck has ios and android apps. I would imagine most do nowadays though.

I use Google Drive, personally since it allows me to share between my Windows devices and my Android devices easily.
