[Discuss] Insync vs Google Drive client



I am getting annoyed with Google's Drive client for our Mac and Windows 8 users.

GD does not always start, sometimes does not let you know when you are
NOT logged in, and does not always sync files and does NOT tell you
when there are any of these problems.

What are thoughts and insights to its competitor, insync (www.insynchq.com)?

Dropbox is not an option at this time - we are staying with google drive.

We are just looking for a more reliable client to give our users so
when they place stuff in their google drive folder on their local
system, we need not worry they they are not logged in or files are not
getting synced to GD's web cloud.

And, other than Insync, what other competitors/options exist for
Mac/Win users to sync data to gd on the web without needing the gd
client?

Thanks.

Scott
