## What it is
MEGA Desktop Application (MEGAsync) is an installable desktop client that automatically synchronizes folders between your computer and your MEGA cloud drive in both directions. It also supports backups and uses MEGA's end-to-end encryption for privacy.

## Use cases
- automatically sync folders between my computer and MEGA cloud drive
- back up my files to MEGA cloud storage
- keep files identical across multiple computers via cloud
- encrypted cloud file syncing for privacy
- mirror changes made on my phone or web drive to my desktop

## When to choose
- you use MEGA cloud storage and want automated two-way folder sync
- you need end-to-end encrypted cloud synchronization
- you want a desktop backup client for Windows, macOS, or Linux

## When to avoid
- you use a different cloud provider like Dropbox, Google Drive, or Nextcloud
- you need only a command-line sync tool rather than a GUI desktop app
- you want open-source software with an OSI-approved license (the license is custom)
