What is SureSync?

SureSync is an application designed for file replication and synchronization, offering both one-way and multi-way processing capabilities that can be executed in scheduled or real-time modes. Users can carry out processing through various methods, including UNC path, FTP, or by utilizing our Communications Agent, which boasts features such as real-time monitoring, delta copying, TCP transfers, compression, and encryption; this agent is required to be installed on a Windows machine. Additionally, the software incorporates a file locking feature that facilitates real-time collaboration within SureSync Managed File Transfer (MFT), ensuring that when a user opens a file in one location, it remains read-only for others in different locations until the necessary modifications are saved and synchronized. MFT further enhances functionality with options for archiving, which allows for the creation of versioned backups of files, as well as improved cloud support and additional features. Moreover, SQL Protection is integrated to streamline the backup process for essential SQL databases, ensuring data integrity and availability across platforms. This comprehensive functionality positions SureSync as a robust solution for file management and synchronization needs.

    Using SureSync since 2006 !! Works like a charm.

    Date: Mar 27 2023
    Summary

    Robust sync software, it just works !! Using it for over 16 years now....
    From v4 to v5 to now using still v6.

    Positive

    Sync over Internet works well.
    In my case, I create offsite backups from Switzerland to Colorado.
    Nightly.

    Negative

    Preview for Sync jobs has very confusing, bad user interface !!
    Take a look at GoodSync, you can immediately understand what gets copied or deleted....

    File Sync - it does what it needs to do!

    Date: Jul 20 2023
    Summary

    We chose SureSync to replace Windows DFS to synchronise data between servers in 5 separate sites. The granularity, real-time and log views of individual actions meant that SureSync was a huge step up from DFS in terms of manageability and tunability. The product development over the years has ensured that SureSync has become ever more reliable.

    Positive

    Once set up and with appropriate monitoring in place, it is a solid product. The support from both Open Seas and Soft ware Pursuits has been very good.

    Negative

    The initial setup was quite involved and complicated. However, with help from Open Seas, we got the configuration that we needed before too long.

    Works well but room for improvement

    Date: Sep 21 2023
    Summary

    SureSync is a significant improvement on DFS-R. It provides good details about replication and alerts when there are issues. We have had some issues with it that have caused some data integrity questions but generally works as expected.

    Positive

    SureSync is easy enough to setup and maintain. Installation and updates are very straight forward.

    The design is not overly complicated but still allows it be deployed the way we need it. There are a lot of configuration options.

    Support is always responsive and helps to resolve any issues we have.

    Pricing is very attractive when compared to alternative products.

    Negative

    The GUI looks very dated.

    There are lots of configuration options, in some cases too many which causes some confusion.

    Sometimes the product stop working and does not alert as expected.

    Great tool for traditional file shares.

    Date: Jul 21 2023
    Summary

    If you need a way to syncronise / backup large fileshares this is an ideal tool. Think of it as a enterprise Goodsync / beyondcompare.

    Positive

    Hugely customisable with every option you could think of. Options out of the box for handling system and hidden files.
    Light installer with a fully offline version if needed.
    Easy licencing.
    Good support.

    Negative

    Windows service on the agents can randomly stop and need restarting and you will need a way of monitoring for that in a large environment.

    SureSync version 9

    Date: Aug 22 2023
    Summary

    Overall this is a very good product, easy to use, and setup is quick and easy.

    The support is great. There instructions are easy to follow.

    Positive

    Suresync is a good product. I like the log files, they provide details of what was moved/copied/deleted.
    You can easily check each job and view the status.
    Support is excellent! We always received a reply within hours and usually had a fix in less than a day. The instructions provided are very detailed and easy to follow.
    The best part is the software is it just works!

    Negative

    Occasionally it gets hung up. But not very often. When this happens we just run a re-scan and everything is back in sync.

    Best file synchronization software so far

    Date: Apr 07 2022
    Summary

    This is the best file synchronization software I've tested so far. At first glance UI might look unintuitive until you realise the philosophy behind it. After that all becomes clear.

    Positive

    Flexibility - tasks and jobs can be configured in many ways allowing synchronization including a lot of criterias.
    Clarity - in contrast to "well known other solution" SureSync consoles and logs shows actually what the tasks are doing, what files requires attention and why. Lock mechanism also works great after initial file synchronization.

    Negative

    It is expensive :-) It works like a charm but there's a price tag behind it :-)

    SureSync

    Date: Apr 07 2022
    Summary

    The application can be used to implement multiple file synchronization scenarios and works properly.

    Positive

    The user interface is easy to use.
    The application has a logical structure.
    Varied configuration options, many different scenarios can be implemented.
    Detailed reporting.

    Negative

    The user interface could be more modern. Sometimes the use of national characters causes errors during synchronization.
