I think all of them have their partisans. What in particular do you like about DropBox?

I read about this application just last night and within 30 minutes I was "sold" on it, that is to say, I've signed up and will likely become a paying user, but am under the free plan for now.

I've previously used SugarySync, Dropbox, Wuala, among others, and I currently also use Mozy as my online backup service. In the short time that I've been using Syncplicity, I'm already convinced of its superiority.

I have not experienced any of the issues I encountered with other services. SugarSync's conflict resolution resulted in data loss for me (partially on account of operator error), and neither Dropbox or Wuala have web interfaces as rich as SugarSync or Syncplicity.

I'm a student and freelance web developer -- I have a 'desktop replacement' laptop at home that only travels for meetings and special occasions, and I use a Flash drive in conjunction with PortableApps and numerous online services on to go to facilitate this portable life style. Online backup may be a crowded space but I think Syncplicity really understands how to make a truly useful service.
