Sync Folders Pro overview

Sync Folders Pro is an easy-to-use app for beginners, has the ability to fine-tune synchronization settings for the most exacting professionals. Sync Folders Pro is perfect for backups to external storage devices including: USB, memory cards, disks on remote computers within your network, folders on Cloud services (Dropbox, etc.) With each re-backup, the app finds and copies only new files and new file versions, thereby reducing backup time and extending the life of your storage devices.

Update to Pro+ for free and create a bootable clone of your hard drive and you can use it if your main drive is crashed.

The app can synchronize multiple pairs of folders at the same time "on the fly" using our "REAL TIME SYNC" technology, on a schedule or manually. The Sync Folders Pro also provides robust tools to filter files and folders so that you sync exactly what you want.

Features:
  • Sync any number of folders at the same time.
  • 9 modes of synchronization.
  • 4 file comparison modes allow to synchronize files on the storage devices with different file systems (OS X, FAT32, etc.)
  • Ability to select what package types synchronize as files, and which as folders.
  • You can transform the app to the convenient file manager using powerful filters for files and folders and writing your own copy script.
  • Synchronization over the network. The ability to automatically connect network folders before synchronization.
  • The ability to disconnect network folders after synchronization automatically.
  • Protection for unauthorized disconnect storage devices (folders) during synchronization.
  • Saving the last/all versions of files to be deleted. Using this mode, you can always restore deleted files, even if folders have synchronized several times.
  • Quick view the latest changes in synchronized folders.
  • Ability to log events. You can filter events by type, task, status. Ability to export the event log to an external file.
  • Ability to send event log by e-mail in case of synchronization errors.
  • Synchronization of subfolder attributes.
  • Writing your own copy scripts, for example:
  • Copy all non-synced files to selected folder before copying.
  • Copying files using Unix commands: cp, rsync ...
  • Localization of the application in multiple languages

##Don't waste your money This app has a horrible interface. Every time I try to set up a sync the app tells me that it excluded System Folders of macOS when I am just trying to sync two folders. I have been using Mac's since 1989 and It seems impossible for an application with such a convoluted interface would get this many good reviews. I have to call the reviews bullish*t.

I've used this app for the last three years, and have had no issues with it. It does its job in a simple, reliable way - not intrusive, no constant notifications or comment from the app. Started to use it for sytem backup as well, and while I have not had to renew the system from the backup, it has copied all important files well.

MacUpdate should delete all of the obviously fake 5-star reviews posted for this app. It reflects poorly on the website when this is continually allowed.

I have been using Sync Folders Pro for some time now and it is so useful for keeping all my important files synchronised both on my off-site storage and my local storage. It is so extremely easy to use, and you can keep older versions of your files it's so easy in the settings. Keeping your important files safe is key to ensuring that you don’t loose anything and because of the multiple features available you can use it simply or get more complicated. A great product and well worth the reasonable cost of the app.

I use Sync Folders Pro to check multiple "Very Important" folders on my schedule and then duplicate them to an external backup drive as an additional backup in combination with Time Machine and Carbon Copy Cloner. This assures that my most valuable files are always backed up multiple times, to multiple destinations. It even provides backup for my iCloud folder. Excellent.

I've been using Sync Folders Pro routinely for many, many years. It has always worked for me. Now I use it to back up and sync my work folders to five different locations, with never an error. I truly rely on it. Once you set it up, it works at the touch of a button, or you can automate it (I use both ways for different sets of folders). I strongly recommend it!

This is the app that make your life easy. With this app, I can just updates all my cloud storages such as Box and Dropbox and my local as well as external drives with just a single click. I have not found any other app that could do the same. So, believe me, if you invest in this app you won't regret at all, just like me. Thank you developer(s).

I had beern using a competitors product for years and I thought it was doing an adaquate job. Then I noticed that some of the date data was not being synchronized. I then gave several synchronizing applications a more thorough testing. Many just didn't perform as expected. I wanted a synchronization application that was intuitive and would simply run in the background without me having to constantly babysit. I found that in Sync Folders Pro, hands down above the rest. It takes a bit of getting used to if you have been using something else, but it just works, and all by itself. I am a happy camper and I highly recommend Sync Folders Pro if you want to automate the synchronization processes on your computer.

Too bad I can't give this a half-star rating! I paid for the Pro version of this app and it more or less worked ONCE, syncing 2 folders, but then it stopped working altogether. Ever the optimist, I worked for hours over a period of months, tinkering with the settings and trying every power-user trick in the book to get it to work, but to no avail. In an ideal world, the developer would owe me a refund and an apology for wasting my time.

I am very happy to use Sync Folders Pro. I highly recommend this program. I now only use the program to backup my drives, it is very easy and fast and can be learned quickly. The program works very fast and error free on my Mac. But the program can also be set to perform very advanced tasks with copying and synchronizing large amounts of files, there are a lot of possible settings, but this requires getting to know the program better. The program provides a link to a very good online manual at http://www.greenworldsoft.com.

Love SyncFolders. Clean, fast, easy to use — unlike many other solutions. The interface is a little "oldy worldy" and thankfully its feature set more than makes up for this I wonder this: is Sync Folders Pro FASTER?

SW is not so easy to use in my opinion. I have used it to sync an external drive with a NAS. I am missing the possibility to preview files that is going to be copied in a sync.
