ChronoSync Express is the entry-level version of the popular ChronoSync utility. It is the one application you can count on for both reliable backups and easy folder synchronization. ChronoSync Express combines an efficient file copy engine, flexible scheduling options, broad connectivity, and a robust user interface into the one utility that no Mac should be without. 

IMPORTANT: ChronoSync Express enjoys the added security benefits of running within the application sandbox, as is required for all Mac App Store apps. As a result, however, it differs from the standard version of ChronoSync by eliminating a few features such as embedded script execution and bootable backups. Full details can be found by clicking our website link.

At its simplest, just create a new Synchronizer Task, pick two folders, and synchronize! When you need more control, use the built-in Options to dictate how individual files are handled, create archives of deleted or replaced files, and customize error handling and notifications. ChronoSync Express brings professional-level features to a consumer-level product!

Utile ma eccessivamente complicata

Per un mese ho utilizzato quest’app cercando di adattarmi. Alla fine per fortuna ho trovato un’alternativa gratuita e decisamente superiore in FreeFileSync (la consiglio a tutti). ChronoSync è eccessivamente complicata e non ti trasmette sicurezza che i file sono stati effettivamente salvati. Ho effettuato varie prove e alcune volte “dimenticava” dei file per strada. Usate FreeFileSync e non fate il mio errore di acquistare ChronoSync

Crashed twices, erasing all files

Recently I started to use Chronosynch Express to synchronize the ~/Document directory of my macs. The first problem is that it is too slow on my LAN, so I have to synch via USB key or SDXC card. The second problem is way more serious, as it concerns data integrity. Chronosynch Express crashed twice, and in both cases I had a large part of ~/Document erased. Worse, it propagated deletions to the other mac without giving a warning. Same if you abort it intentionally. Fortunately, the Time Machine saved my files. Now I am looking for a replacement.

Génial !

Synchroniseur qui fait tout ce qu’on lui demande, Il synchronise même les paquets type Aperture library ! Génial !!

Parfait

Trés bonne application de synchronisation Tout est en français ce quil facilite grandement les choses Beaucoup de paramétrages possibles mais on peut aussi utiliser les paramétrages standards qui permettent de configurer rapidement la synchronisation.

Ansich gut.

Das App kenne ich von früheren Versionen und war immer sehr zufrieden. Diese Version stürzt nur ab. Bekomme leider kein Backup damit hin. Also rausgeworfen Geld

stiller und zuverlässiger Helfer im Hintergrund

Ich habe verschiedene Programme für automatische Backups und die Synchronisation von Ordnern ausprobiert. ChronoSync ist geblieben. Diese App arbeitet zuverlässig, und jeder Job lässt sich sehr individuell und praxisnah konfigurieren. Wenn ich über die Aktivitäten von ChronoSync informiert werden möchte, kann ich das entsprechend einstellen. Wenn ich nicht bei der Arbeit gestört werden möchte, macht ChronoSync seinen Dienst völlig unbemerkt im Hintergrund. Die Oberfläche des Programmes ist sehr übersichtlich, aufgeräumt und selbsterklärend. Die Aktivitäten von ChronoSync werden gestartet nach Zeitplänen (sehr detailliert!), oder nach definierten Aktionen - wenn z.B. ein Datenträger verfügbar wird. Was mir dabei noch fehlt, ist das Starten eines Backups / einer Synchronisation unmittelbar nachdem der Inhalt des betreffenden Ordners geändert wurde. Hier wäre noch Luft nach oben… Alles in allem: ein kleiner Helfer, dessen stille Gegenwart im Arbeitsalltag sehr bald unverzichtbar wird - nicht erst, wenn der schlimmste Fall eingetreten ist ganz plötzlich an der Verlässlichkeit eines Backups die Existenz von unwiederbringlichem hängt...

Tut was sie soll!

Hatte mir zuerst die Testversion von ChronoSync heruntergeladen und getestet. Arbeitet alles wie es soll. Hab dann festgestellt, dass Express alles kann was ich brauche, somit der Kauf der „Vollversion“ unnötig ist. Ich synchronisiere Ordner auf meinem Mac mit Ordnern auf einer externen Festplatte und diese Festplatte synchronisere ich dann nochmal mit einer zweiten Festplatte. Funktioniert alles schnell und zuverlässig. Wie es muss.
