Microsoft Sharepoint, Box.net or Dropbox are just a few of many services that let users share and sync files across multiple platforms and access them from anywhere. But there’s a new player in town: Insync, which just launched with the same selling proposition but stands out with tight Google integration (for Gmail, Google account, and Google Apps account holders). In other words, if you’re using one of the existing file management services but have always wanted to sync and share Google Docs (in addition to other files), then you should read on (Insync works with both Windows and Mac OS). How does it work
After signing in with your Google account (no separate registration required), Insync runs seamlessly with the OS and in the background. Much like with other file management services, there is no UI. You can drag and drop files or create folders just like you do under Windows Explorer or Mac Finder. Other than the single sign-on through Google, Insync is different from Dropbox and other services through syncing Google Docs automatically and displaying it as a folder under Insync. Whenever you add, delete, or edit a file on your desktop, it will automatically sync to Google Docs and vice versa – in (near) real-time. Needless to say, file sharing and syncing works outside Google Docs, too. Read more: CrunchBase
