Top 5 Utilities for File Sync |
Posted: March 27, 2017 |
The life of modern man is inevitably connected with using a computer wherever they may be: at home, at work or at school, on a trip. Some people carry a laptop everywhere, but it is not always possible and is not very convenient. So often people practice another option they have a desktop computer at home or at work and take a laptop or a netbook with them when they are on a trip or commute to work. However, in this regard, there is another problem: the need to transfer the data used from one computer to the other, then back again (but with an increase in the number of devices the problem is getting more and more complicated). Typically, users do it manually on a local network or use the increasingly popularity “cloud” storage such as Dropbox, SkyDrive and others. The latter option is useful when it comes to the small amount of information, up to several gigabytes. In case when tens or hundreds of gigabytes are used up daily, there is no point using cloud, but instead it is more convenient to resort to the help of specialized tools for data synchronization. With these tools you don’t need to think about which of the latest computer file changes you made, - so you will always be able to work in a unified information environment, no matter where you are in the moment. In this review we will look at the four most popular software to synchronize files between computers: SyncBackPro, AllwaySync and Resilio. SyncBackPro This powerful tool has a huge number of various settings. It costs $54.95, and it can be used thirty days in trial mode. The application supports many interface languages. SyncBackPro is based on profiles that you can add them an unlimited number. It takes several stages to create of a new profile. At first you need to enter the name of the profile. In the next step, select the type of profile, only three of them: backup, sync, and mirror. The third step is to select two folders to be synchronized with each other - they are referred to as left and right. In the drop-down lists you can choose storage place: for the source folder is the internal / external drive or network path, the FTP-server, on-line service Amazon S3 and Windows Azure, as well as files on the mail service. For the destination folder, in addition to all the above, there is still the possibility of CD / DVD-burning and conservation in the form of ISO-image. Resilio This software is notable because it was created by developers of the BitTorrent peer-to-peer protocol. The tool has a version for Windows, Linux, Mac, Android, iOS. If you are wondering how to sync videos to iPhone or music and photos to your iPad or any other device fast and what is even more important, securely Resilio is the best bet for you. Allway Sync Allway Sync is one of the fastest file sync software and developers provide it free for personal use, the commercial version of the application is $ 19.95. The utility is fairly simple and easy to use, although it has a bit clumsy interface. There is no list of profiles, and there are problems, each of which is displayed on a separate tab: you can have them to add, remove, clone, and rename. The program allows you to select a folder, not only on a local disk, but also on the Internet - it supports protocols such as FTP, SFTP, WebDAV, online service Dropbox, SkyDrive, Google Docs, OffsiteBox and others, defines mobile devices connected via Microsoft ActiveSync, and can read the ZIP-files.
