Sync.com

Overview

Sync.com is a Canadian provider founded in 2011 by Thomas Savundra, Suhan Shan and Darius Antia, operated by Sync.com Inc. from Toronto, Ontario; it says more than 2 million individuals and businesses use its products^[18]. Its storage is end-to-end encrypted, so that, in the company’s words, only the user has access to their files, and it lists SOC 2 Type 1 compliance^[17].

The individual plans are billed annually: Personal 1TB at US$9 a month (US$108 for the first year), Solo 5TB at US$21 a month (US$252) and Personal Unlimited at US$33.75 a month (US$405), each with a 30-day free trial; HIPAA compliance is listed only on the Solo 5TB plan^[17]. Sync competes with Proton Drive on privacy but focuses more on file sharing and team workflows than on an email-and-VPN bundle. Because data is encrypted client-side, in-browser previews and collaborative editing are more limited than in Google Drive or OneDrive, and annual billing is required on the plans shown.
