#SYNCOVERY VS ARQ HOW TO#
Several times I've had to email the developer to figure out how to do something or how to speed up a sync. Every few months, when I come across a peculiar sync task, I end up discovering Syncovery has it covered (though not always in an obvious way). But it's become one of my most-used and most-appreciated tools. Syncovery is a cross-platform app, and as such doesn't have the snazziest, most Mac-friendly interface. Syncovery not only simplified my synchronization tasks by providing a GUI where I could keep a collection of recurring sync jobs it also provides capabilities beyond what I could handle with rsync, such as interactive editing of the synced file list (including reversing sync direction for selected files), the ability to delete files on each side of the sync (again, interactively), and good automatic discovery of renames and folder moves. I previously used some command-line rsync aliases for this. I have been using Syncovery for a few years now (originally in its former incarnation as Super Flexible File Synchronizer) to syncronize folders between three Macs (home, office, laptop). Licensing is per user and not per machine so you can use Syncovery on several machines (not simultaneously within a LAN) if you own more than one Mac. Licensing is complex but bearable (versions, platforms, upgrades all calculate out via some pretty bizarre formulas but which do reward past investment in Syncovery software). Both have their place in a power user's toolbox. SuperDuper! is my easy tool for reliable bootable backups in a simple attractive package. The interface dismays me less over time as it's clear that offering this kind of power and making it visible to the end user has aesthetic consequences.
Ugly yes, but Syncovery is powerful magic.
#SYNCOVERY VS ARQ MAC#
Drastically takes the complexity and high costs out of server backup if you have a strong internet connection (what office doesn't these days).Īlso works great for dealing with local Mac photo collections to sync changes two way if necessary (editing on two different Macs before resyncing - don't do this, but if you do, Syncovery has your back). If you're not aware of it, you can use Syncovery to effectively incrementally backup entire servers daily to local with a spare Mac Mini. It does not store any personal data.Awesome tool.
