CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
SmartSync Pro doesn't offer any groundbreaking features, but it has the functionality businesses need. Like similar programs, SmartSync Pro uses profiles to store information on recurring backup tasks, including filters and scheduling options.
IT staffers will appreciate the program's turnkey profile templates, export/import capabilities, and tree interface for categorizing numerous profiles. SmartSync Pro's scheduler can start a backup at set intervals, at Windows start-up, or when the contents of a folder change. The program also can perform system actions before and after backup. For example, it might dial an online service, run an application, or shut down the PC. It can even automatically hand off backup packages via e-mail or FTP.
Other business-friendly features include multiuser and multilanguage support, password protection, and folder synchronization via LAN or packages similar to Windows Briefcase. SmartSync Pro's plain-Jane interface won't win awards, but its superb feature set ought to please business users.
Publisher's description
From SmartSync Software :SmartSync Pro is a universal tool for backing up and synchronizing your important data to your local drive; external flash, USB, or ZIP drive; CD or DVD; NAS or other storage device; network volume; or even remote computer. If source data is destroyed or lost, it can easily be recovered. An intuitive wizard will help you set up what to copy, and where and when to copy it.
