Pros
Pro Combines cloud syncing, storage service and backup client
Thus you have a single service for all of the things.
Pro Available for many platforms
The Spideroak client is available for Linux, MacOS, Windows, Android and iOS.
Pro Incrementals
SpiderOak updates only that part of the file that has changed, saving bandwidth and time.
Pro Zero knowledge
Data is locally encrypted before uploading to Spideroak. They cannot recover your data even if they wanted to since it is stored in encrypted state on their servers.
Pro Unintrusive
Pro Transparent and Simple Billing
I am currently using it for free under Alpha release, but the pricing is straight forward with billing for storage and download, no unnecessary list of unbundled API' are billed.
All the usage is logged on the blockchain that can be audited against the bill.
Pro Privacy Focused and Transparent
All the files are encrypted and access is logged on the blockchain that I can verify. Only those with access can view the files.
Pro Good for video streaming & hosting
Due to the distributed nature of servers, video streaming is performant and better than current providers. Quite cheaper too. Files are downloaded from an edge network.
Pro Very easy to integrate
SDK just has a couple of endpoints with good documentation
Cons
Con New to the market
The service is relatively new, but migration shouldn't be a problem
