I'd kindly ask you to give us another chance :)

The product has come a long way in the past year. In particular, our Private Cloud offering is deployed at a number of large organizations, all of which are quite happy.

Regarding comparison with BT Sync -- I think their product is great, but we try to go beyond simply syncing files between devices by allowing for a lot more administrative control to the IT organization while still giving the users a really simple Dropbox-like syncing experience. Things like remote wipe, version management, conflict resolution, and so on.

Yuri, can you tell how you got these large companies on board? Is this something that YC helped with?

It depends on your definition of "helped". YC helped us in a lot of non tangible ways (the company probably wouldn't exist without their help, for example :).

But YC did not directly help us land these customers in the forms of introductions. For the most part, they've come to us through word of mouth and internal employee references.

Interesting, thanks.

We are a small company and are very happy with BTSync.

However, if you want tight admin control, you may have some issues. For example: If an employee leaves, we're not sure how to revoke privileges for them once they have access to the folder.

So, I recommend very small companies use BTSync since it's easy and free. But if you're a larger company, you have probably outgrown BTSync and should get something like AeroFS.

I had the same experience. I've been using Bittorrent Sync for awhile now and absolutely love it. It's super fast and I've never had any inconsistencies in syncing. The closed-source nature of it is not ideal, but if that's a concern you're no better off with AeroFS or Dropbox.

Nor are you better off with Bittorrent Sync. It's closed-source as well. That could change of course.

Thats exactly what he said.

I must have had a brainfart yesterday or something. Apologies.
