Polaris Office Sync For Mac

Polaris Office is a popular service that allows you to store and view Microsoft Office documents and PDF files using any web browser, as well as edit them with the help of the Android and iOS apps.

Polaris Office Sync aims to extend the service’s functionality on your Mac, enabling you to upload new files, download content from Polaris Drive, view the latest modifications made to your documents, share items and chat with your contacts.

Assuming you already have an online account, all you need to do is log in and choose a folder on your Mac that can be used to store downloaded documents or files that need to be uploaded.

You can view a list of the most recent modifications made to documents in Polaris Drive, share them with your contacts, create shareable URLs and view the selected file in the web service.

The service includes a feature that allows you to communicate with other users and share files. This functionality is extended to Polaris Office Sync, making it possible to perform these actions from your desktop.

Moreover, any notifications you receive can be viewed by accessing the app’s menu bar icon, saving you the trouble of having to open your account in a web browser.

Unfortunately, you cannot choose from multiple sync modes, as the contents of your Polaris Drive and the hot folder are kept identical at all times. If, for example, you only want to upload files to cloud storage without keeping them on your Mac, this can be a problem.

While you can see the most recent changes made to the documents in cloud storage, you cannot browse through them without launching the web service.

This is a good tool for those who use Polaris Office on their mobile devices and wish to keep their files synchronized on their Mac as well. It lacks some important features, however, and the fact that documents can only be edited with the mobile apps reduces its usefulness.
