Most backup products are single-tier. Syncrify on the other hand, is a Multi-Tier backup. Click here to learn more about the difference between single and multi-tier backup system.

This difference alone puts Syncrify ahead of more than 95% of competing solutions.

Syncrify offers a private-cloud solution . This means you create your own cloud. Files from the source machine will get saved to a machine that is in your control. No other company will ever see or store your private files.

Many companies who offer cloud-based backups store your files on their servers. Although most of them use encryption, there is always a safety issue since files are not in your control.

Syncrify is a product not a service, that can be installed on any machine within your network. As a result Syncrify does not have any:

• Monthly fee
• Setup fee
• Bandwidth fee
• Limitations on file size

Most companies that offer cloud based backups charge according to the data you store on their disk. The more data you store, the more you pay. On the other hand, you pay one low price that is irrelevant of the disk usage. It does not matter if you backup 100 MB or 100 TB.

Unlike many competing products, we publish our prices on our website. Our pricing model is simple, you only pay a small fee for the machines where Syncrify client is installed. It does not matter if this machine is a laptop, desktop or a server.

Many competing products have different packages and you pay differently depending upon where you install (laptop, desktops or server).

Moreover, some products/services charge extra for backing up server software like MS SQL Server and MS Exchange. With Syncrify, you don't pay anything extra regardless of what you are backing up.

Syncrify not only backs up modified files, it only transfers modified data within a file. It is very common to have files that are in gigabytes but only a few megabytes change on daily basis. Syncrify will intelligently transfer only the modified data with a file, tremendously decreasing time and network bandwidth.

Although some backup software will perform incremental backups by only copying modified files, files are copied in its entirety. Therefore, they will backup the entire file even if a single byte is modified since the last backup.

Backed up files can be accessed from any machine or mobile device. Users can not only view or download files, but can also send them via email to anyone they chose. Click here for details.

Most backup software cannot expose backed up files like this. Some that do require storing your files to their servers on the Internet, raising privacy and security concerns.

Syncrify is more than just backup. It allows file transfer in multiple directions. This provides the ability to synchronize folders and files on multiple machines. Refer to a usage scenario that talks about this feature.

Many backup solutions provide a one-way file transfer. This means files are backed up from one machine to the destination.

Both the Syncrify server and client run on a variety of operating systems such as, Microsoft Windows (XP and higher), Mac OX X and Linux. You decide which OS you would like to install Syncrify on.

Most backup software will only work on a Microsoft Windows. This means you will need a different solution if you want to backup a machine running Mac OS X
