Sorry to hear it didn't work out for you, tckr. Since initial delivery, we have made some great strides at reducing bandwidth usage. Just to be clear, we only hear about this being a problem for users with really small uplink bandwidth. As a co-founder at Space Monkey, I've subjected myself and my family to living with Space Monkey on this type of a link -- I have the lowest tier DSL connection available from my ISP in my own home and run Space Monkey there without problem currently.

We have recently delivered shared folder functionality via the web client, and are working on shared folders for the desktop as well. I've been personally using a beta version of desktop shared folders for collaboration for over a year. We want to make sure we nail this experience before releasing it more broadly.

Thanks for backing us early on! Hope you might give us another look at some point in the future.

Event with cloud storage costs approaching $0 we need a product like SpaceMonkey. I still admire your approach and I will keep up to date with your progress.
