If you’re like thousands of people out there, you’re stuck in a rut of keeping your important files right on your desktop. I get it; you have easy access to them quickly. You know exactly where they are. You can even password protect them so no one accidently gets access to it from your computer if you leave it unlocked. But what if something were to happen to your computer… and you lost your important documents? That document that you’ve been working on for hours just disappeared. Sometimes there are chances to recover such documents in the event of a loss. However, if your hard drive crashed and your documents weren’t backed up you could be out of luck. Why worry when you don’t have to?

Using a cloud-based service can help eliminate the possibility of losing your documents. But what about the time it takes to upload all of your files to the cloud?

ShareFile helps simplify this process with our Desktop Sync tool! This tool allows you to set up an automatic synchronization from your local computer to your ShareFile account (and vice versa). Now all you have to do is set up a Sync job and, every 5 minutes, any updated files will automatically be sent to your ShareFile account—now you have a secure backup of all of your files that you can access anywhere! Cool, right? We know!

So, today I’m asking again: Are you syncing? If not, start now! Free up that desktop clutter and save yourself from future headaches!
