14 DAY TRIAL // Lenovo PCs and tablets will get Cloud Storage out-of-the-box starting next month, thanks to its partnership with SugarSync.
Lenovo Cloud Storage by SugarSync gives buyers of Lenovo ThinkPad and IdeaPad laptops and slates a free 5GB cloud account.
That means that they will be able to auto-sync their files, be they photos, videos or music, to the cloud.
In other words, no matter where they are and what other PC or mobile device they use to access the Internet, they will be able to access their files easily and quickly.
“Lenovo Cloud Storage by SugarSync makes it incredibly simple and convenient for people to interact with their growing libraries of digital content, from anywhere, at anytime,” said Mark Cohen, distinguished engineer and vice president, Lenovo.
“Lenovo Cloud Storage plays a fundamental role in our plan to expand Cloud services, bringing even more new capabilities to consumers and businesses around the world.”
Needless to say, the greatest advantage of Lenovo Cloud Storage by SugarSnc is that it works with practically all web-connected products, even phones, regardless of manufacturer.
The only catch is that the account is given once someone actually buys a laptop or tablet from them.
As if that wasn't enough, photos are automatically sorted into albums and, like all other files, are encrypted using 128-bit AES encryption.
Other assets include the ability to share files and grant access to a person or group to shared folders on a PC through their accounts.
”Today people need to work with their data across all of their devices, while also being able to easily share and collaborate on that data from anywhere,” said Laura Yecies, CEO of SugarSync.
“Lenovo Cloud Storage by SugarSync enables people to access, sync and share their digital lives across all computers and mobile devices. This partnership with Lenovo will give the many millions of Lenovo customers a seamless way to start using the Cloud for ultimate productivity with Lenovo ThinkPad and IdeaPad laptops and Android tablets – right out of the box.”
