# DragBin vs Sync — Private storage with pricing trade-offs

Sync offers client-side encryption but lacks post-quantum protection, private AI features, and the pricing flexibility teams need to scale affordably. DragBin closes those gaps with quantum-resistant encryption by default, 25 GB free, unified team pricing, and an open-source codebase.

## Why switch from Sync

- No post-quantum encryption.
- No private or local AI tools.
- Only 5 GB free storage.
- Per-user business pricing raises costs for teams.
- Closed-source applications.
- No integrated global CDN.

## DragBin advantages

- Post-quantum encryption by default (ML-KEM + AES-256).
- 25 GB free storage — 5× Sync's free tier.
- Unified team pricing instead of per-user pricing.
- Private AI and advanced sharing tools.
- Integrated global CDN for faster transfers.
- Open-source and self-hostable.

## What Sync does well

- Client-side encryption for file contents.
- Zero-knowledge privacy on stored files.

## Who should switch

Teams hitting Sync's per-user pricing ceiling, privacy-focused users who want quantum-resistant cryptography today, and anyone who needs more than 5 GB of free encrypted storage without artificial caps.
