Syncplicity Mac client going back for more work, beta ends July 31st

Syncplicity, an easy-to-use file syncing service similar to Dropbox or Sugarsync, is recalling its Mac beta version for more work. The beta will end for current users on July 31st. To their credit, the Syncplicity team was running a real beta, and the point of a beta is to identify problems that real users have with your software in the wild. Unfortunately, in this case, there were so many problems that it's going to take a complete rewrite to fix them.

There won't even be a timeline for the relaunch of Syncplicity for Mac until early next year, so it would be smart to start investigating competing services if you've been relying on it.
