Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | Shows automatically synced cloud documents by device, and supports viewing device folders, managing files and folders, and filtering by type, time, and size. | Microsoft mainly uses OneDrive to sync files across devices, focusing on folder backup and cross-device access rather than a dedicated device-folder view like My Devices. | Google Drive for desktop syncs local files to the cloud and lets users access files from the desktop, including offline use, but it focuses on desktop sync and mirrored storage rather than device-based folders. | Notion lets users view and edit downloaded pages offline on desktop and mobile, and paid plans can automatically download recent and favorited pages, but it does not organize cloud office files by device folders. | Adobe Document Cloud syncs files across desktop, mobile, and web, with a focus on PDF and e-signature workflows rather than device-based folders for office documents. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: You can directly view automatically synced documents by device. Distinct: File management, sorting, filtering, and file details are available in one place. | Compared with WPS: OneDrive is centered more on general cloud sync and backup, so device-based browsing is not the main interaction. | Compared with WPS: Google emphasizes desktop sync and cloud mirroring, so device-category browsing is not the main workflow. | Compared with WPS: Notion offers stronger offline page workflows, but its content model is based on pages and workspaces instead of device folders. | Compared with WPS: Adobe is more focused on PDF and signing scenarios, so device-based browsing for office documents is not a core workflow. |

Overall Conclusion
If you want to quickly find office documents that were automatically synced from a specific device and organize them in the same place, My Devices in WPS is a practical fit. The alternatives focus more on general cloud sync, offline pages, or PDF workflows.
