GOOD sync is my favorite backup software!
Comentarios: The great benefit to this backup software to others that I have tried is the level of customization. I have my main personal files in a separate location and those are the most important to have backed up in multiple locations. As for the operating system files, I have used my personal file back up more often, as if I have a problem with a computer, I do a fresh install of the Operating system (NOT from backup), and I have my personal files already backed up separately to install on the new install.
Puntos a favor:
First, GOODSYNC actually copies files faster than windows explorer. I use the program to automatically backup various files to multiple backup hard drives, including cloud drives. I have multiple jobs running, so I can back up certain sets of files to one drive, and others to another drive, all VERY customizable. I have separate storage folders that back up separately, and I also have jobs that backup entire hard drives -- but only files that have changed, so it doesn't have to start from scratch each time. These jobs run automatically, set by the built in scheduler. I also like the option for the program to send an email after each backup, confirming the back up, and alerting me if there are any errors.
Contras:
Infrequently, there are errors that I can't understand. (The error reporting may be a bit more complex for my needs.). However, I don't see that as a limit to the software, but a limit for me as a non-expert user. Either way, I can see the file that wasn't copied and can filter and/or fix the program so it can be copied, or by-passed if necessary. Usually this happens with temp files that I don't actually need backed up. (There is also a filter to keep from copying these, but I haven't used it. That would probably solve my problem before I would have one.)
Excellent Product - working well for me for near-line server replication
Comentarios: The product seems to just work. There are indeed dozens of options to sift through, but all in all, I find the experience to be fully worth it. The company has answered my feature questions promptly.
Puntos a favor:
Full-featured for what it is. Comprehensive list of replication options. I'm using it to replicate data from a production Windows server to another Windows server on the same LAN (near-line storage). Automatically uses VSS to great effect, effortlessly copying locked files. All changes/deletions are synced with seconds to minutes (rarely when there are very large files, over 1 GB), which is totally acceptable to me. It was easy enough for me to install, and I scheduled a session to fine-tune it with a support rep, which went very well indeed. I now get regular emails about errors, the vast majority of which can be disregarded, but I do want to see these anyway (files existing for just a short time that were not synced etc.).
Contras:
There is no lower renewal cost, far as I can tell - you pay full price at each renewal. Some others have complained about support, but I've had no issues getting a response when needed, which has been seldom.
Awful. Complete waste of money.
Comentarios: I developed great experience with debugging and anger management. It inspired me to scout the market for other solutions, and it encouraged me to learn rsync as a substitute.
Puntos a favor:
It's easy to delete. That's about the best thing I can say: it can be removed by simply dropping it in the trash.
Contras:
I have used GoodSync on and off for several years. Here's my typical experience: * I install the latest version of GoodSync. * I encounter various intermittent errors. * I delete GoodSync and use another solution. Why do I keep going back? Because I paid for it, and I cling to the hope that they will eventually make it *minimally* effective. No dice. It remains as much garbage as it was when I purchased it. Examples: * Locks up while attempting to sync to a folder. Just becomes totally unresponsive. The process needs to be killed, and often the machine rebooted, to recover from the lockup. * "Undefined Error: 0." Constantly. This is GoodSync's version of "An error occurred." Don't bother emailing GoodSync customer support - they don't know and won't help you. * Sync jobs just fail, spontaneously, mid-sync. The sync is running perfectly, the volumes are both still available... and it abruptly stops. * The network browser is overdesigned and overcomplicated. All you want do is to specify a URL, a username, and a password. Sometimes it accepts the settings. Sometimes it just retains the old settings, and barfs out random error messages. I give up. They are never going to make this software to minimal usability. I have scoured all of my computer systems of this bloated trashware. Don't make the same mistake I did. Don't waste your time, and don't give this developer money. You will regret every dime and every moment you spend on this garbage.

Hi David - We have escalated your support ticket and we have reached out in an attempt to resolve the issues listed in your feedback.
Ok product, but conservative product development and annoying customer service
Comentarios: They try to put you in their ticket system and then provide you with standard answers sending you off.
Puntos a favor:
Easy to use, although it can take long time to go through the full list of files on your system.
Contras:
Arrogant customer support. Providing "putt-off" answers to get rid of your Q's. Not listening to suggestions for improvement and treating you like you are a no-no.
I run all my backups for all my devices using GoodSync
Comentarios: My over all experience is excellent and I would highly recommend this product.
Puntos a favor:
It integrates well with all my NAS devices, Using the "goodsync explorer" program I am able to see all my backup locations including my Google Drive and BackBlaze B2 storage. And the price just can't be beat for what this program is capable of. My fav features are: Integration with all my cloud storage that's simple and easy. Integration with all my NAS devices Synology and WD. Precise control of when and what gets backed up. Ability to detect file changes on MY NAS, MY PC and my cloud service so everything is backed up nearly instantly. The GoodSync Explorer feature makes it easy to see the files on any of my devices or RDP into them if need be. I have recommended this to others and everyone that has taken my advice is very pleased with this program as well.
Contras:
The only negative I have is that it does not run as a standalone program on the NAS, but since I use a dedicated PC as my backup controller that hasn't really been a hindrance.
