Back up your data and
synchronize PCs, Macs, servers, notebooks, and online storage space.
You can set up as
many different jobs as you need and run them manually or using the scheduler.
Syncovery works with local hard drives, network drives and any other mounted
volumes. In addition, it comes with support for FTP, SSH, HTTP, WebDAV, Amazon
S3, Google Drive, Microsoft Azure, SugarSync, box.net and many other cloud
storage providers. You can use ZIP compression and data encryption. On Windows,
the scheduler can run as a service – without users having to log on. There are
powerful synchronization modes, including Standard Copying, Exact Mirror, and
SmartTracking.
Syncovery features a
carefully designed GUI to make it an extremely versatile synchronizing and
backup tool. The wealth of features fulfills all requirements that users
typically have, while still being easy to use.
Feature List
Here’s a list of the
most important capabilities of Syncovery. To get a full impression of the
available features, it is recommended to download and try the software and take
a direct look at the available options.
We are proud to say
that this is one of the most comprehensive file synchronization tools
available.
Synchronizes or Backs
Up Files and complete folder structures in different locations, such as PCs,
Macs, laptops, or online storage. There are no limits in terms of file sizes,
the number of files, or filename lengths. The program fully supports Unicode
characters so that it can copy filenames in all languages.
Each sync job is
saved as a profile so that you only need to specify the settings once.
You can run multiple
profiles with a single click. You can also run profiles from the command line.
Profiles can be
created using a wizard, or in advanced mode.
Copy several files in
parallel.
You can copy between
1 and 10 files in parallel. This can greatly speed up the copying phase. Just
specify the number of simultaneous copying threads on the Files tab sheet when
editing a profile in Advanced Mode.
Includes a scheduler.
Schedule the
synchronization of your data on a backup hard disk at a convenient time each
day, or as frequently as you wish. You can also schedule profiles to run upon
shutdown or log-off. The scheduler can launch different jobs in parallel or
sequentially. On Windows, the scheduler can run as a service – without users
having to log on.
Internet and Cloud
Support.
Supports various
Internet protocols, including FTP, FTPS, SFTP/SSH, WebDAV, SSL, HTTP, as well
as these cloud services: Amazon S3 and compatible services, Microsoft Azure,
Rackspace Cloud Files, Microsoft OneDrive (formerly SkyDrive), Google Drive and
Google Docs, DropBox, Box.com, and more.
Compression and
Encryption Support.
Easily zip your files
and encrypt them with strong 256-bit AES encryption. To unzip and decrypt,
simply use the Restore Wizard or make a copy of your profile and copy in the
opposite direction.
Detects Moved Files.
If you reorganized
your folders by moving files to different locations, Syncovery will detect this
and quickly perform the same moves on the other side of the sync, rather than
deleting and re-copying the files.
SmartTracking.
This operating mode
has been designed for two-way synchronizations. It keeps a database of all
files so that it can detect file deletions and conflicts. Via the Configure
button, you have access to the SmartTracking dialog where you can specify how
to handle the various situations that can occur in two-way syncs.
Exact Mirror Mode.
This operating mode
has been designed for one-way synchronizations. In addition to copying newer
files, this mode can also delete files which are no longer present on the
source side, and it can replace newer files with older ones if it is necessary
to create an exact mirror.
Unattended Mode.
In this mode, no
questions are asked while the profile is run. All relevant choices can be made
beforehand in the profile settings.
Copy Locked Files.
If some files cannot
be copied due to other software accessing these files, Volume Shadowing can be
used on Windows XP or later to copy the files. If files can’t be copied, the
synchronizer will continue copying the remaining files, and then retry all
those files that were locked, until all files have been copied successfully. A
limit for the time spent on retries can be specified. On Macintosh and Linux,
locked files can also be copied because the operating system does not normally
enforce locks as strongly as Windows.
Versioning:
this feature enables
you to keep multiple older versions of each file in the backup. There are
several naming schemes available.
Block Level Copying
(or delta copying / partial file updating):
this feature copies
only the changed portions of files in order to speed up the synchronization.
See Block Level Copying
Database-safe mode:
this mode requires
exclusive access to the files to be copied. If exclusive access is not
possible, Volume Shadowing is used, or the program will wait until the
exclusive access becomes possible.
Can Use Recycle Bin
for older versions of
files that are overwritten, as well as for deleted files. This will give you a
chance of retrieving overwritten or deleted files. By default, the recycle bin
is used for deletions but not for updated files. These settings can be changed
in the profiles.
File Masks &
Filters.
Numerous ways to
select/deselect files and folders are available.
Daylight Saving Time
/ Time Zones.
Due to consistent
internal use of UTC/World Time, there are rarely any issues with timezone
differences. However, if you find that your files have a timestamp mismatch
such as 1 hour, the program can be set to ignore that and consider these files
as identical – provided that the file size is the same, and the difference is
exactly 1 hour (or an exact hour difference below the maximum number of hours
allowed).
Easy Resuming On Disk
Full.
You simply make more
space and ask the software to continue copying. It can pause right in the
middle of a file until additional space is freed.
Obsolete File
Folders.
If you occasionally
move obsolete files to a specially designated folder, this usually causes
trouble with traditional file synchronizers. They will copy the obsolete files
back from your other machine right into the folders where you moved them out
of. No longer! If you use the Selected Folders option, you can specify folders
for obsolete files using the right mouse button. These folders are then taken
into account for moving files into them, but not for copying files out. Thus,
the synchronizer does the same moving of obsolete files on your one machine
that you previously did on the other, but it does not waste any time copying
all obsolete files between the two
machines.
Support All Windows.
