SyncMate

I use Syncmate to Synchronise large photobiblios ( 100.000 pics and more ) on different Drives. Works great. Also super Support.

Waste of money, I had it installed for 2 months and everything seemed fine until my server gave me a warning it was out of storage. turns out sync mate had made copious copies of my files to the point 25tb was taken up by about 200gb of data. I checked the logs and it was a trash issue, ok cool fixed that still replicated everything. reached out to their support and they said NO REFUNDS, It also boasts that it can back up your phones contacts calendars etc, well apple put a stop to that and sync mate hasn't been altered to reflect these changes. RUN AWAY FROM THIS APP! Do not spend any money on it, treat it like a scam.

Waste of money.

For me it used to work great on 10.11 but no way on 10.14: SBB until it fills the whole available disk space... :-o From what I gathered, it might be because it uses an old service called launchproxyls which is based on inetd (don't ask me exactly what that is... :-D ) that has apparently been dropped from MacOS.

I purchased a family pack of their software syncmate to keep directories between different Mac computers in sync. The software hardly ever works for me. I have an iMac and MacBook Pro. It takes several hours to sync, and the sync almost always fails in the end if either computer goes into sleep mode. So unattended syncing just won't work. Customer service says I need to use a third party app to keep machines awake, but as yet I cannot find an app that is compatible with syncmate, nor could customer service suggest one. Just dreadful. Even that I cannot use their app as expected I requested a refund, but they flatly refused. So I wasted £100. Others should be aware.

I have tried Syncmate amongst others for my Mac and Syncmate never worked with my NAS for synchronization. This was about 18 months ago, so I purchased full license in Jan 2021 to unlock other features. Still no luck, just chalked it up as a loss. This week (10 months later)....Thought I would try it again, so I downloaded the latest version and it still does not work. FreeFileSync is a better option. Stay away from Syncmate and ask for a refund for overpriced product. This might explain why they are trying to sell it at 50% off. To top it all off, I accidentally purchased it again this week and their service team did not even acknowledge this to be true or not. Just wanted some real respectful assistance on a refund and got no acknowledgement of the double payment.

I bought Syncmate back when I owned a Treo, and again when I owned an Android phone. All the while attempting to Sync my contacts with my Apple Mac (OS X) computers. Syncmate never, ever worked properly. It always left contacts out, double listed other contacts, repeated / added the same contact notes again and again, etc. About 6 years ago I stopped trying to sync non-Apple devices and just caved in and bought an iPhone, using iCloud to get my stuff to sync properly. Now here it is 2021, and I am just discovering that Syncmate left toxic code that had been messing up my OS X Contacts years after I stopped using Syncmate (the code became part of the Contacts save file). Today I spent 2 & 1/2 hours with a senior Apple Tech Advisor on the phone to help me finally remove the toxic code causing all the problems and it was not easy. Adding how this incredibly faulty product wants you to keep paying for upgrades that do not improve the product at all, and I would say stay far far away from Syncmate. Terrible product, terrible tech support, only a bunch of headaches that invade your devices long after you will stop using this product. Do not believe any "5 star" reviews - this is far far from being even 3 stars. Personally I give it 1 star. Avoid Syncmate.

Good application. I have been using it for more than one year. Synchronization works quickly and without errors.

I like! Synchronized everything I use. Very comfortably! I recommend for all users of the Mac OS.

Top app! Everything works as stated in the description. Thanks!

A very useful application. I like it. I recommend to everyone.

Works great! I recommend to everyone. An application that should be on every Mac for your convenience.

A very handy application. I have been using it for a long time, I like it!

Very handy application for Mac. I like it!

Nice app! I use it for over a year.

SyncMate cannot sync selected folders between two mounted devices which makes it useless. And their own (sic!) review is misleading, ChronoSync is a lot more flexible,

Finally, I'm able to view and reply to text messages using my phone's Samsung messages on my iMac. Until Samsung chooses to create a desktop app for use on macOS, SyncMate is definitely THE way to go1

Unfortunately my review is along similar lines as many of the ones below. I purchased the full edition of the software based on it's claims of seamless transfer between my Mac and my android. Needless to say this is not the case. Basic list of problems mentioned below: - Connectivity issues all the time. It rarely connects with my phone first time, I always have to close the application and reopen both on my Mac and my phone. - It has messed up all of my contacts and duplicated many of them. - The sync speed it completely useless. It takes half an hour just to sync 100MB of music. My iPhone used to do this in a matter of seconds. - There was an issue that it kept "re-syncing" the same files every time I synced, even though the files had not changed in any way whatsoever. I had more back and forth mails with their customer service than I care to mention, with no resolution. They were extremely demanding, asking me to send repeated support logs and screenshots but nothing was resolved. In the end they said it was an issue from my side and not theirs! - They then made me pay for an update when the new Mac OS came out and said it was justified as they put a lot of effort into making it compatible with the new OS. Yet after giving in and paying, it was exactly the same as the older version with the exact same connectivity and sync issues. Overall this software had such great potential compared to any others out there in the market, but unfortunately was not rolled out or delivered by a comprehensive team. Support should not be arguing with their clients, they should be trying to sort their issues out, which was very disappointing.

The trial version is not full-featured, so it's impossible to fully evaluate without purchasing the full version, yet they do not offer any refunds unless you find a bug or technical problem, despite advertising a 14 day "refund guarantee." Terrible, terrible customer service. Avoid at all costs.

Awful customer service. Wish I had read the reviews here before purchasing it.
