Great for smaller businesses

Reviewed on 2021/11/26

Pros

You don't have to pay monthly subscriptions for all users. Everything is always being backup by local drives so you have full control of that data.

Cons

Synology Drive is great for small and medium businesses, with unlimited capacity and with an unlimited number of users, all that on-premise and one-time pay.

Pros

when you buy a Synology appliance you can take advantage of the features for free, one of them is Synology Drive and you can create an unlimited number of Synology Drive accounts, and the Drive Server setup is amazing and very friendly.

Cons

I see that sometimes there is some lag in data transferring and after the diagnostic, we found that the CPU and the RAm on the Synology appliance are full of use. we cant update the CPU so we have to replace the device with an upper series.
