Personally I think BitTorrent Sync has something I really like. I am in the middle of evaluating SyncThing (Open Source project that is similar)

I really like BTSync for th following:

1) Like git the copies are on local machines

2) I control the servers and I control the folders that are shared

3) Super fast in a local network

4) You can use whatever encryption you want and it works perfectly

5) You can selectively sync individual folders and files

6) Easy to share things that are Read Only or Read/Write

Have you already upgraded to the "PRO" version? I've been using it on Linux for about a year and just recently a "7 days left" appeared on the Web UI.
That is the reason why I am thinking of syncthing for myself. I need to look at syncthing's mobile apps. https://syncthing.net

I believe you can downgrade to a btsync 1.X and keep it forever.
