Compare Axcient x360Sync vs. SureSync

In today's digital landscape, secure synchronization and sharing of files have become essential for employees, particularly as remote work becomes more common. The ability to sync and share files enables team members to collaborate and modify documents, such as those from Microsoft 365, from virtually any location and at any time, significantly boosting productivity levels. However, relying on free file sync and share options poses a risk, as they typically lack comprehensive backup solutions, leaving crucial data exposed. Daily occurrences of data loss, ranging from phishing scams to misplaced laptops or accidental spills, highlight the vulnerabilities employees face. Furthermore, compliance with regulations like HIPAA can incur hefty penalties; for instance, the fine for a lost device containing sensitive patient information begins at $10,000. The absence of a reliable backup system places both employees and organizational data in jeopardy of loss and potential statutory fines. Axcient x360Sync addresses these concerns by offering secure file synchronization and sharing services coupled with continuous backup, ensuring that all endpoint devices, including both PCs and Macs, receive ongoing protection against data loss. This proactive approach not only safeguards sensitive information but also helps maintain compliance with regulatory standards.

SureSync is a file replication and synchronization application that provides one-way and multi-way processing in both scheduled and real-time modes. Processing can be performed via UNC path, FTP, or with our Communications Agent. Features of the Agent include real-time monitors, delta copies, TCP transfers, compression, and encryption. The agent must be installed on a Windows machine. File Locking enables real-time collaboration and is available in SureSync Managed File Transfer (MFT). With file locking a file opened by a user in one office will be read-only for users in other offices until changes have been saved and synchronized. MFT also includes archiving to create versioned file backups, enhanced cloud support and more. SQL Protection simplifies backups of critical SQL databases.
