Insync

Insync adds "5 seconds and you’re done" file desktop sharing feature

Wed, 10 Apr 2013 10:04:00 +0800

Sometimes, you just want to share a picture or a PDF as a link and move on.

You don’t want to open a browser and go to the “too advanced” share window on Google Drive and spend a few minutes deciding on the options. You just want a link to a file you can share from your desktop, ideally via a right-click.

Fret no more.

Insync, an alternative Google Drive client for power and business users, in its all-knowing wisdom, has built this for you. While a picture is worth a thousand words, a 5 second video is worth a thousand seconds (see what I did there?).*

How does it work?

We use the Google Drive Publish API which allows us to do 2 things:

Direct link — to generate a direct link to the file and copy the link to your clipboard
No Google account required when accessing

As you can see in the video, you select a file or folder, right-click, select Insync → Copy public link and it generates a direct link (i.e. publishes) and voila!

Copy & paste away. It’s the “5 second” way to share your desktop files.

We know it’s going to bring a smile every time you use it :)

*This 5 second video will save you thousands of seconds. And it was actually timed.

Say Hello to Insync 1.0

Wed, 27 Mar 2013 08:47:00 +0800

If Dropbox and Google Drive had a love child, it would be Insync 1.0.

Insync is a simple, beautiful and powerful Google Drive app that extends Drive functionality to the desktop (i.e. you use Insync with your Drive storage).

Insync takes the best parts of the Dropbox client and the best parts of Google Drive web and combines it into a simple desktop application with power features that get out of your way.

For example, Insync integrates sharing into the context menu of Windows Explorer / Finder / Nautilus (beta) and extends Drive’s sharing permissions functionality (edit, comment, view) with a built-in window so you don’t need to open a browser.

Context menu

Share window

There are other advanced features like multiple Google accounts, selective sync (folder and files), recent changes (newsfeed for your docs), shared to you (on-demand share syncing ala Dropbox shares), revert read-only files, symlink / junction / alias support, progress indicator, name your own folder, external + network drive support and many more.

Sharing with built-in permissions

Revert a modified a read-only file

Pricing

Insync comes in two flavors:

Pro edition is available for $9.99 (introductory pricing) one-time after a 15 day free trial and email support.
Business edition is coming soon and includes an admin dashboard and centralized billing with priority email support.

All editions come with unlimited installations across Windows, Mac and Linux (beta). Here’s the pricing page.

We are also introducing a how-to guide and a referral program.

While this has been quite a journey for us thus far, this is just the beginning. Expect more innovative features in the coming weeks and months as we enable you to do more with your Google Drive storage.

Symbolic link (and junction point) support now on Insync for Windows and Linux

Fri, 11 Jan 2013 20:02:00 +0800

Most wanted captured
One of the most requested features on the Insync forums is symbolic link (“symlink”) support. We are symlink users ourselves and wanted this feature so we added it.

What are symbolic links (and junction points) and why does it make sense to have them?
Symbolic link is a special type of file that contains a reference to another file (or directory) only instead of containing actual data it’s a reference to a file.Junction point (“junction”), on the other hand, is an NTFS-only specific term. Junctions are popular among Windows users as the “actual” symlinks arrived pretty late on Windows (Vista onwards). For an end user, the differences between junctions and symlinks on Windows are minute; but the most noticeable among them is the fact that junctions cannot point to a file or to a network folder while symlinks can.The most common use for symlinks is for creating multiple links for important files or folders without having to create duplicate copies. In other words, if you want easy access to some files or folders but do not want to move them from their current location, then symlinks are for you. With Insync symlink support, you can effectively “sync any folder” (or file) to Google Drive. It’s not a feature for everybody but for power users, it keeps current folder hierarchy preserved and that’s a big problem solved.How do I use symlinks in Insync?

Windows 8, 7 and Vista
1. Be sure to have Insync for Windows version 0.9.19.17363 (or higher) installed on your machine.
2. Open the Command Prompt and right click on it.
3. Click Run as Administrator (type in the password if prompted) and then use the following:

MKLINK /D Link Target (“/D” is for directory Symlink)

e.g. MKLINK /D “C:Insynclove@insynchq.comMusicSymlink” “D:Music”

This will create a symlink to your Music folder that will be synced through your Insync folder.

Windows XP
1. Be sure to have Insync for Windows version 0.9.19.17363 (or higher) installed on your machine.
2. Download Sysinternal’s utility called Junction (or use any other trusted program such as linkd.exe from the windows resource tool kit) - http://download.sysinternals.com/files/Junction.zip
3. Unzip and extract junction.exe
4. Open the Command Prompt and switch to the directory where junction.exe is located and then use following:

JUNCTION Link Target

e.g. JUNCTION “C:Insynclove@insynchq.comMusicJunction” “D:Music”

This will create a junction to the music folder that will be synced through your Insync folderNote: Junctions on XP (and “sometimes” on Vista, 7 and 8 too!) are tightly bound to their targets - deleting a junction the way you delete any other file or folder would delete all the content in the target too. Therefore to delete the junction locally, use the same utility with a different switch on the command line:

JUNCTION /d Link

e.g. JUNCTION /d “C:Insynclove@insynchq.comMusicJunction”

When you delete a “junction” remotely on Google Drive Web, Insync will always delete the junction safely for you locally. So remote deletion is completely safe with Insync.

Linux
1. Be sure to have Insync for Linux Beta 14 (or higher) installed on your machine.
2. Go to your file manager and right-click on any file or folder that you want synced to Google Drive but don’t want to move or copy.
3. Hover over Add to Insync, then click the account where you want to sync the file or folder. This will create a symlink whose contents are synced to Google Drive.

Note: The list below shows the Linux desktops that have symlink support.

Debian-based Distros:

- Unity + Nautilus
- Cinnamon + Nemo

- Xfce + Thunar

Fedora-based Distros:

- Gnome shell + Nautilus
- Cinnamon + Nautilus

Mac OS X
Symlinks (and aliases) currently aren’t 100% supported on Mac OS X. It only syncs upon Insync startup — it doesn’t keep watching the folder (or file). Full support is coming in 1.x.

Insync arrives on Windows Phone

Mon, 07 Jan 2013 13:18:00 +0800

Introducing Insync for Windows Phone

All Windows Modern UI fans and Windows Phone owners are in for a treat as Insync brings Google Drive/ Docs support to Windows Phone users.

Jam-packed app

We went all out and packed Insync for Windows Phone with features you can find in our desktop client while also optimizing them to the Windows Modern UI. A picture speaks a thousand words so here goes…

Easily switch between Google accounts with multiple account support.

View documents, files or images with or without internet connection.

Upload multiple photos simultaneously.

Share folders and files with editable permissions.

Choose from a number of options to share files. Instant shareable link creation.

Take it for a spin now

Insync for Windows Phone is now available for a one-time fee of $4.99. Download it at the Windows Phone Store.

Insync for Gmail Beta 2 is now up and running!

Mon, 31 Dec 2012 00:38:00 +0800

Detach yourself from attachment hell

Attachments are necessary but are painful to manage. They clutter your hard drive with unrecognizable file names like: “project-work (2).doc”. Sooner or later you lose track of versions. Later on, to sync it to your cloud storage, you have to download each version from Gmail and upload it again. It’s a painful process that we have become numb to. We’re on your side - and like you, our quest to attain attachment nirvana continues.

So, we’re happy to announce the general release of Insync for Gmail Beta 2!

New user experience

After releasing the first beta 4 months ago, we received your feedback and updated the app to a Chrome extension (and deprecated the @label system). And the result?

We came up with a more powerful way of syncing and backing up your attachments. There is absolutely nothing to learn — sign up with your Gmail (or Google Apps) account and add your Google Drive or Dropbox account.

Insync then adds an Insync link beside the usual Gmail attachment links. Click and select the account and folder. That’s it.

Top bar

Like Insync for desktop, we add an Insync status on Gmail’s top bar. You get the file syncing status as well as a recent history of past synced attachments.

Manage Services allows you to add more (or remove) Google Drive or Dropbox accounts.

“Hidden” features

Auto-versioning — attachments with the same filename from different email threads are synced as new versions so you always have the latest version.

Search — the email subject is added as search metadata and made searchable on Google Drive web (not avail on Dropbox). Last modified date — the email’s date is synced as the attachment’s last modified date in Google Drive (not avail on Dropbox).

Be an early adopter

It’s still hot off the press so go ahead and try it — we know you’ve got a lot of unsynced Gmail attachments. The good news is it’s free in beta. You can get it here!

Mate Desktop and XFCE Support

Sat, 15 Dec 2012 01:03:00 +0800

Insync for Linux Beta11 was just released in the forums and includes support for Mate Desktop and XFCE. Status emblem updates and context menu support work with both Caja1.4 and Thunar1.5. We have released the Caja and Thunar plugins as open source Python scripts.

Insync Public DBus API

Fri, 14 Dec 2012 23:55:00 +0800

Insync on Linux can be remotely controlled from another process using DBus. This is how the standalone applets talk to Insync. Using this API you call passing a command string, and get back data in json format. The Dbus domain is “insync.rpc” and the path is “/”.

Command Line Example:
gdbus call -e -d insync.rpc -o / -m insync.rpc.call GET-STATE

DBus API

“PAUSE”
- pause insync
“RESUME”
- resume insync
“GET-STATE”
- returns: recent changes, actions, errors, account info, paused
“ADD-ACCOUNT”
- triggers the add account sequence
“EXIT”
- exit insync
“OPEN-INSYNC-FOLDER”
- open the insync root folder

Enjoy!

Our Insync for Linux Beta 4 is here!

Fri, 07 Sep 2012 20:55:00 +0800

Hi Everyone!

Last July, we rolled out our Insync for Linux and we are very glad that most of the feedback we got was positive. We’re very thankful for all the forum users who helped us test the past betas of our Linux client. Today, we are very excited to announce beta 4 of Insync for Linux!

Looking at all the different DEB and RPM packages in the Beta4 forum post, you are already thinking - when are these guys going to get around to setting up a PPA to “apt-get” from? Its coming soon, we are working on it now.

Thanks to Mark of nwlinux.com.You can now install Insync using apt-get.

Add the following source to /etc/apt/sources.list

deb http://insync.nwlinux.us /

Install command: sudo apt-get install insync-beta-ubuntu

It was only tested uding Ubuntu 12.04 only.

Insync Applet - Linuxmint - Cinnamon Desktop

Our goal is to provide support for all the popular desktops: Unity, Gnome3, Cinnamon, KDE and XFCE. Running “insync” with no arguments defaults to the Unity desktop, this requires AppIndicator (an Ubuntu standard) so it will work all the Ubuntu variants like: Xubuntu, Lubuntu, etc. To use Insync with Gnome3 or Cinnamon, install the Javascript applet, and run “insync —gnome”

———————————————————————————————————————-

Options

insync —gnome

Run insync with Gdbus server that connects to either Javascript applet for Gnome or Cinnamon.

insync —kde

Run insync in KDE mode.

insync —kde —plasmoid

Run insync in KDE mode and display recent file updates in the Insync Plasmoid.

This allows you to see badge (emblem) updates on recently changed files.

———————————————————————————————————————-

Advanced Options

insync —use-gevent-inotify

Run insync with Inotify gevent loop. This is most likely slower than the new default threaded loop.

insync —allow-dot-files

Run insync and sync files that start with the “.” character. (useful for github hidden files, etc.)

How to sync Gmail Attachments on Google Drive and Dropbox using Insync

Fri, 24 Aug 2012 17:25:00 +0800

Don’t you wish to save and sync all your Gmail attachments in one place? Last July 27, 2012, Insync announced one of their cool features - Insync for Gmail that allows you to sync, organize and send all email attachments to Google Drive or Dropbox with the use of labels. Anyway, below is the procedure that can help you on how to sync all your email attachments:

1. You need to login via http://insynchq.com/gmail using your Gmail account you’re trying to connect with Insync

2. After successfully login in, you will be redirected to Insync for Gmail web interface wherein you can add Drive and/or Dropbox as services.

3. Once you add Drive and/or Dropbox, Insync for Gmail will ask for your confirmation to allow access for that account.

4. Then you will be redirected to the page wherein you’re going to set Drive and/or Dropbox as a label. After that, you will see the connected services.

5. Check out your Gmail account, and you will now see the label that you’ve set (@Drive or @Dropbox). You can now try to use it. Just set the labels to email with attachments that you wish to sync with Drive or Dropbox.

Just as simple as that, no need to download and install anything. Remember that it is free during beta. Happy syncing and backing up your gmail attachments!

Introducing...Insync for Linux and Gmail

Thu, 26 Jul 2012 09:16:00 +0800

It’s Christmas in July from Insync as we announce 2 presents today: Insync for Linux and Insync for Gmail

Insync for Linux

It works just like its Windows and Mac counterparts. Insync for Linux beta 1 was tested on Linux Mint 13 and Ubuntu 12.04 and has badging / context menu support for the Nautilus file manager.

However, it has 2 (very cool) features:

headless app — runs on any modern Linux and removes the tray app, badging and context menu.
API — client-side API that allows scripting and setting of custom file metadata.

Instructions and download: https://forums.insynchq.com/discussion/1363/insync-for-linux-beta

A video is worth a million words so…

Insync for Gmail

Don’t you wish your attachments would automagically appear in Google Drive or Dropbox, organized by email, support versioning and subject tags for searching?

That is what Insync does but the magic is in its simplicity. To use it, just label an email (with an attachment) using @Drive or @Dropbox. That’s it.

Nothing to download. Nothing to install.

It is magical.

Works with Sparrow, iOS Mail, Outlook and other clients that supports labels / folders.

https://insynchq.com/gmail

Note: We are waiting for Dropbox to approve our app, which we expect soon.

Dropbox support is now available!

A heads up to our team — they have worked incredibly hard and I couldn’t be happier. But we are just beginning…we have lots in our product pipeline and expect more announcements throughout the summer.

Top 7 Reasons to use Insync as your Online File Storage

Fri, 20 Jul 2012 00:03:00 +0800

Today, there are lot of file storage and syncing services that are out in the market. Insync is one of the many cloud-based services that use Google Drive as its storage area. With already established players such as Dropbox, Evernote, Apple’s iCloud, Microsoft SkyDrive and Google Drive out, why should you choose Insync?

Below are some reasons to choose Insync as your online file storage:

Multiple Google Accounts – Insync lets you manage your files and multiple Google Drive accounts in one machine.
Offline Google Docs Editing – Yes, you can even work on your Google Docs file whenever you’re not online. It also automatically converts your Google documents into Office formats, making them available offline.
Recent changes notifications – Lets you track the changes you’ve made on your files.
Non-admin Windows install – No need to be an admin of your computer for you to install the application.
Selective sync – Lets you to choose what specific folder to sync.
Multiple platforms – It runs on different mobile platforms (iPhone, Windows Phone, Blackberry, Android), Windows, Mac and soon on Linux. We are now supporting Linux platforms as well.
External hard drive support – This lets you choose your external hard drive as a location to put your Insync directory.

[Edit:]

Selective sync is a coming soon feature.

Adding Multiple Google Accounts in Insync

Fri, 06 Jul 2012 12:59:00 +0800

You’ve already installed Insync and added your primary account, and you want to add more accounts yet you’re not sure how to do it. Below is the procedure on how to add multiple Google Drive accounts in Insync:

You need to have the Insync application. If you don’t have it yet, download it here.
After successfully installing it, you’ll see the Insync icon on your taskbar.
Right click the Insync icon and go to ‘Account Info’ then ‘Connect another Google account’.
After clicking ‘Connect another Google account’, you will be forwarded to a Google login page. Login with the Google Drive account you’re trying to connect with Insync. a. In the case where you are already logged into a Google account, instead of being forwarded to a Google login page you are forwarded to the page in step 5. If this is not the account you would like to add, choose ‘Sign in to another account’ and login with the correct one.
Next, Google will ask for your confirmation to allow Insync to access Google Drive for that account.
Then link the machine to the new account. You will be redirected to the account management page where you should see your primary Google Drive account and the account you’ve added. You can also confirm this by checking that the account you added is being synced to the Insync folder on your machine.

Adding multiple Google accounts in Insync is as easy as ABC. It allows you to manage your files and multiple accounts much easier without too much tech lingo.

Enable Insync for Multiple Windows Users

Tue, 03 Jul 2012 14:15:00 +0800

Setting up Insync for Multiple Windows Users is pretty simple. Below is an easy guide for you to follow.

Getting Started

If you have not done so already log in to your Google account (Yes! Insync supports google accounts login). Presumably you have already downloaded your Insync application. If not, do so now by clicking on the icon that says “download Insync” and install it on to your computer.

Now you can upload and access files of all kinds directly from your hard drive to your Insync Drive. Remember to use the copy function of the file if you want to keep a copy on your hard drive.

Sharing Files on Insync with Multiple Windows Users

Sharing files through Insync with multiple windows users will be much easier as a snap. Just follow the steps below:

Open your Insync and select file or folder to share
Right click on the files
Then point your cursor to Insync -> Share or you opt to another way of sharing files: Insync – Get Shareable Link
Note: “Share” goes to the collaborator list where you can add users/emails explicitly. While ”Get Shareable Link” sets the sharing permission to “anyone with the link” and generates shortened URL.
An Insync web application would pop up wherein you can manage how the user will access the file.

Access to Files and Folders

The owner of the file or folder has complete control over who may access their content. You do not have to share entire folder to share one file. You can determine who can simply view the file, leave comments or who has access to edit the items. Insync users determine the number of people who have access to the files or folders.

Enabling Insync for multiple Windows users is fast, simple and leaves you in complete control. This protects your privacy and the security of your files and hard drive. By sharing with other users it makes it easier to collaborate on projects. Multiple users are able to access and edit files and folders based on your settings.

Insync's response to Google Drive

Sat, 12 May 2012 01:22:00 +0800

TL;DR: Despite Google Drive’s launch, Insync is continuing as a company and product and focusing on Google Docs power and business users.

—

If you are an average consumer, Google Drive will likely be enough and we encourage you to use it. But if you are a power or business user, Insync is likely more your cup of tea.

Here are some things you can do with Insync that you cannot do with Google Drive:

Google Docs in your “drive” — offline GDocs editing
@gmail.com, @company.com, @family.com — multiple Google account sync support
Who edited word.doc? — recent changes
Change your Google Drive directory easily — just click Insync Preferences
Share recipients deletion of local files don’t affect the share owner (i.e. if John, a sharee, deletes word.doc, Mary, the owner, would still have local access to word.doc)
Local folder and file right-click (contextual menu) support for easy sharing
No browser required when sharing (standalone app for Insync version 1.0+)

What are your next steps?

Insync for iPhone, Android, BlackBerry and Windows Phone is coming soon with Insync for iPad and Android tablet to follow.

Insync for mobile, will include “power” features like “Send as Attachment”, streaming music and videos, offline folders and files, export to SD Card (Android + BlackBerry), saving email attachments to Google Docs, etc.

We are also working on version 1.0 of Insync for Mac and Windows that adds features like selective syncing, encrypted sync, sync any folder, etc. (not all in one version :)

And yes, we are supporting Linux, despite its long delay thus far.

insynchq.com has been updated to reflect our focus.

Release dates

Insync for mobile is rolling out this month/June and Insync 1.0 for Mac and Windows rolls out in June/July.

Business model

As a result of our focus on power and business users, starting with version 1.0, Insync will be a paid app with a free 30-day trial. Insync for mobile will be sold at each platform’s individual app stores.

Users will have the ability to use Insync for Mac and Windows for free via a referral program, which we will announce when Insync 1.0 is released.

As always, we will provide you with the best customer support around.

We want to thank all our users for their continued support and feedback and excited to get Insync 1.0, the GDrive alternative, into your hands.

GDrive launches early as Insync

Sun, 01 Apr 2012 18:05:00 +0800

According to our sources, Google has bought startup Insync and instead of delaying GDrive’s launch again, it is launching GDrive as Insync today.

Google paid in the 10 figures we hear as Google gears up for war with Dropbox, iCloud and Skydrive. If that sounds like a lot of money, it’s really not. Dropbox was last valued at 11 figures and If there was ever a company to give Dropbox a fight, it would be Google.

Prior rumors had mentioned the possibility of a launch near mid-April so this is a bit of a surprise.

Insync sports 5GB of free storage, multiple account support and even an Android app.

Is it a Dropbox killer?

“No doubt,” said Mike Arrington, founder of Techcrunch and Crunchfund, who’s now crapping in his pants about his investment in Bitcasa.

He continued, “2GB vs. 5GB free? Fuggetaboutit!”. (Note: the 2GB refers to the amount of free Dropbox storage).

GDrive is the oft-rumored (and off) cloud storage product from Google for about 10 years now as the early version was called Platypus and a later version was called Mallard.

The main feedback from users so far: Insync (I mean GDrive) has amazing support.

“I post on the forums or on twitter or send them an email and I don’t know how they do it but they respond in 5 minutes! Every time!,” said Joe P., an early adopter from Mississippi.

Let’s hope Insync and Google support remain separate.

I haven’t actually installed GDrive yet because I wanted to rush this guest post/breaking news on Insync’s blog itself.

I will post a longer review once I get all the link love for breaking the biggest story of tech in 2012 so far.

It's ok to break up with Dropbox

Fri, 30 Dec 2011 23:00:00 +0800

15 months in closed beta later…Insync is live!

Insync combines…

cheap Google Docs storage
powerful sharing and collaboration
integrated functionality

Cheap storage

GDocs storage is $0.25 per GB/year while Dropbox charges $2.00 per GB/year.

Google’s storage tiers:

20GB at $5/year
80GB at $20/year
200GB at $50/year
400GB at $100/year
up to 16TB

Dropbox’s storage tiers:

50GB at $100/year
100GB at $200/year

Buying storage from Google becomes a no-brainer.

Awesome sharing

sharing permissions (read/write + read only)
nested sharing
individual file sharing (in Dropbox, you have to share a folder)
share recipients don’t get charged against their storage quota
re-sharing permissions (sharees can re-share or not)
MS Office to GDocs collaboration (and vice versa)

As Barney would say “that’s legendary!”

Out of your way

Insync “integrates” itself into your OS and makes it feel like it’s just part of your workflow. As a result, we get out of your way and bring sync functionality via the Insync folder, right-click, Explorer/Finder integration and systray/menubar app.

It’s free and there is no registration - just use your Google account.

Hello world (again)!

Mon, 05 Dec 2011 15:50:00 +0800

We have been heads down since our private beta was released on September of 2010, gathering feedback, iterating, releasing to our users and doing it all over again until we had product/market fit.

What took so long?

Building a cross-platform syncing solution that “just works” is massively difficult. The permutations on the desktop alone are migraine-inducing. And testing becomes an entire beast of its own combining art, science and tears.

But over the last 15 months, we persevered and have recently begun testing Insync 0.9, our soon to be released version to the world.

What makes it unique?

Besides allowing you to utilize Google’s cheap storage, Insync allows you to sync files in Google Docs across all your devices, Dropbox-style.

But our unique feature is the support of multiple Google Docs accounts, allowing you access to yourGmail and Google Apps accounts from Finder and Explorer!

We also put an emphasis on sharing and collaboration, which is lacking in today’s sync products, specifically:

Read/write and read-only sharing
Share recipients don’t get charged against their Google storage quota
Nested sharing

We don’t have an exact date for a public release but it is very soon. However, lucky readers get early access right now (limited invites).

Let us know what you think.

Finally, an alternative to Dropbox worth trying :)

Insync for your law firm..

Insync's crazy launch + how to get invites

Wed, 15 Sep 2010 10:19:00 +0800

We had no idea, no idea!

5 major tech blogs covered our beta release! Well, 6 if you count the NYTimes (via VentureBeat :)

How we got all this coverage is another story for another post.

Shout outs to helpful bloggers: Serkan Toto for discovering us in Singapore and Lee Mathews + Zee for helping us squash a couple of bugs.

The focus now is scaling our backend and making the client rock solid. Sorry guys, but feature freeze for now.

How to get an invite

Ask a current Insync user for a little love by sharing a folder with you and you’re in. Yeah, we didn’t have time for an invite system :)

If you are a blogger and want to review + reader invites, email me at t+blogger@insynchq.com. If you are a twitter user and want follower invites, email me at t+twitter@insynchq.com.

Well, good night (good morning, here)!
