## Reviews

### "An In House Cloud Sync Solution" — 5.0/5

> **Olavo** | *30 March 2022* | Design | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Being able to work live on projects with our team, no matters our location, securely and privately, and see the changes occur live is something that we could not imagine a couple of years ago.
> 
> **Cons**: It is a little difficult to set it up on multiple machines and we have had issues to make it work with IOS. We have kept the use to our Linux, Mac and Windows machines and on mobile, only on Android.
> 
> We have solved storage and version issues, both with Syncthing.
