Synology Alternative - Ugreen NAS vs. Synology NAS Comparison
Last year, I reviewed the UGreen NAS DXP4800 Plus, which had great hardware but a new OS as well as some missing features. Fast forward to today, and things have definitely improved. In today's video, I will do a direct comparison between the most current OS version of Ugreen's UGOS and Synology's DSM. Ugreen has released multiple major OS updates, and we will see if it has feature parity with the competition. I'll compare essential features like shared folders, user management, and popular apps like Photos, Backup & Sync, Docker, VMs, and Media Servers. Is Ugreen UGOS finally a viable competitor? Watch to see the side-by-side comparison!
