SugarSync, an online backup and file sharing service, has announced it has more than doubled its free service offering, and introduced a new , free 5GB plan.

The upgraded plan allows users to manage their data, anytime, anywhere, and now from any device. With the free sync-and-share offering for the Personal Cloud, consumers can securely backup and instantly access all of their most important files-thousands of documents, photos, songs, or other valued content-from any device they choose, regardless of their operating system or handset preference.

"Statistics show people's storage needs double every two years so this larger plan is better suited for today's mobile consumer," said Laura Yecies, SugarSync CEO.

"We believe our free 5 GB service will give consumers a true taste of how SugarSync can support their fast-growing digital lives by managing their data in their own Personal Cloud. This is by far the most robust free, Cloud-based service for consumers on the market."

SugarSync works with a wide variety of mobile devices, from laptops to BlackBerry, Android-based phones and iPhones, and today's most popular tablets, such as the iPad and Samsung Galaxy.

SugarSync also offers a free 30-day trial for plans starting at 30 GB for just $4.99/month. Those who refer their family, friends and colleagues to sign up for a free, 5 GB SugarSync account will be rewarded with 500 MB for each referral, or receive 10 GB of additional storage for every paid subscriber via the Company's "Double Bonus" referral program.
