OmniFocus is wounderful, but Omni Sync Server not … many THANKS to THE GREAT WALL!
Lucky, OmniFocus support WebDAV, so we can choose a faster network cloud disk solution, like Box, Dropbox, Google Drive …
But native privider will be better, as we know most of cloud disk providers have shut down their products … many THANKS to WHOEVER! However, There’s still a recommended one, Jianguoyun. I have been using for a while, it’s really fast, although free space is quite small, but enough to sync Apps data.
What is WebDAV
