Sync files with the windows app instead of up or downloading them
The windows application should manage files, in the way that if I select a folder to be synced, it should sync automatically. When a transfer is interrupted, it continues next time I turn on the PC. If a folder is synced, when I change a file it should automatically update it in the servers.. and if I upload a file to the web interface in a synced folder, it should download automatically in my PC. That should work also on shared folders, so that many can work on the same file.

Be able to minimize the windows application to the system's tray (next to the clock)
I think it's better to have a small icon in the system's tray in order to save taskbar's space for oder programs. Maybe when you place the mouse over it, show the upload/download rate, and pop up messages when transfers are done. Right click should pop up options.

Automatic sync in the desktop app
Great for backups. Sync the files between the computer and aruna.

We have thought about this but can not offer unlimited backup / sync service for free. If we offer it it would likely need to be a paid plan. Or maybe we could offer a limited size “sync” folder. Let us know your thoughts.

Compare panes contents command
Users will greatly benefit from having a 'Compare' command in the client software, which compares contents of the two panes based on file names and timestamps and in each pane highlights files that are newer than those in the other pane, and those that are missing from the other pane. This would facilitate very easy way to synchronize contents of folders while keeping full control with the user (the user may deselect some files before uploading).
