Thanks to Tom for suggesting InSync to us on our article of the Top 5 Google Drive Clients for Linux. Your suggestions and comments are always welcome.

Have you given InSync a test drive yet? Tom thinks that no other Google Drive client for Linux can compete with it and I agree.

The latest version, 1.4, puts a nail in the coffin of all “best drive clients” debates and makes it a desktop client to reckon with.
