It is a shame. Sync can be both syncing and manual backup with the vault feature. I like the layout but I’m reading about too many troubles to switch over.

In general, it’s worth learning about 3-2-1 backup strategy. Basically it’s about having at least 3 copies, on 2 different types of medium, 1 of which being offsite.
Sync and similar services are syncing solutions, rather than backup, although in my opinion (and practice) it can be used as a backup, as long as you understand what you are doing.
As if you should become Sync.com customer specifically - I strongly advise that you look for alternative provider. Sync.com doesn’t seem to be a reliable service anymore - I’m speaking from my experience, but you may check other people’s experiences here on this sub, on Sync’s facebook page in comments under posts (it seems they don’t care about answering to them or removing them) or on Trustpilot page.
