However, for my general syncing between NAS, seed box, DC server, Windows PC & laptop I settled on Syncthing. It’s not very fast and it doesn’t sync different profiles at the same time. GoodSync is stable, works on both platforms (even Linux), covers a lot of different storage platforms, is relatively easy to figure out and has been doing its stuff in the background without any issues at all. Didn’t finish testing, but it has been running for a couple of weeks without any specific issues. YMMV though.įreeFileSync is probably good, I just find the user experience terrible. Overall I t works ok, I just can’t trust it when throwing a lot of data at it. Sometimes it would sync files that haven’t changed for a while generating a lot of traffic. I had issues with syncing not picking up changes, the app freezing without any warning, messing up files when they change on both sides and not picking up the network connection when it goes down and up again. If it’s not install and forget I take it off my list. While both work well with Cryptomator (they recognize a Cryptomator vault and mount it automatically) I had too many patty issues which made it less than interesting for me. It’s a software to access different types of storage. It is really sad to have to write off such a great program due to such a poor decision by the developers to support their work with malware.BTW, cyberduck is not the sync tool. I immediately ran a scan with Malwarebytes and cleaned up the mess that the adware/malware had made. I forgot about this issue and, within the next day, pop-ups and notifications for various obviously fake issues started displaying on her computer. You may receive a User Access Control (UAC) prompt about allowing it to make changes to your computer, if so click Yes to continue. To install, double-click the installer EXE after downloading it. I intended to run a scan using Malwarebytes immediately after this but was in a hurry and had to leave to do something. FreeFileSync is a free and open-source tool designed to manage file synchronisation. I, honestly, was not given enough time to reject the install of this adware (yontoo). For the second time, I watched as the installer jumped to the next page after only displaying the option to opt-out the adware for a very brief few seconds. Just to be certain I uninstalled the program and ran the installer again. My hands were not touching her laptop so I know I didn't accidentally hit a key. While reading through this page, after only a few seconds, the installer jumped to the next page and started installing Freefilesync (and, as I would eventually find out, the adware program I was trying to read about). The last time I installed this program (on my fiancee's laptop) the installer got to the page asking to install some kind of adware. I really loved this program but the malware introduced in the installer has caused me to abandon it.
