Editors' Review
Users working between multiple workstations may need to access the same file from different computers and back up data between them. ChronoSync for Mac is a welcome program for those users and syncs data quickly and securely.
The program offers a free trial version available with a 500-file transfer limit while the full version requires $40 to unlock. The setup of ChronoSync for Mac went smoothly despite requiring acceptance of a lengthy user agreement. Upon first starting the program up, the user can choose to open a complete user manual, which is a welcome addition to this type of program, as novice users may not understand all of the features. Technical support for updates was also present. Upon starting, the user interface was easy to decipher, with left and right transfer folders similar to FTP programs for server upload. The user can select to back up and sync between folders in the same device, or on a different computer linked via a network. Many options are available to restrict or permit syncing of certain files or criteria. The buttons for operating the program's main features were easy to locate, even if the instructions were not used. Actual syncing completed quickly and without error, as would be expected.
For those users backing up files between networked computers, ChronoSync for Mac performs well and offers all expected features.
Editors' note: This is a review of the trial version of ChronoSync for Mac 4.3.7.
Full Specifications
What's new in version 4.9.10
Changes & Enhancements:
- Implemented work-around for failing bootable backups on macOS 10.15.5 (Catalina).
- When instantiating new sync and container tasks from their default template file, we now catch any exception that is raised.
- Hardened all logic involved with reading result data back from any shell task to better deals with situations that could cause indefinite hangs.
Bug Fixes:
- Fixed a bug whereby an exception that occurs while Blessing the destination after a bootable backup would cause the application to terminate.
- Fixed a bug in the AWS S3 Connections whereby if the user's account was restrictive to the point that they weren't allowed to list buckets, the connection 'Test' would fail and not allow the user to manually specify a bucket name in the next panel.
- Fixed a bug whereby attempts to mount the volume that a target disk image resided on were likely to fail on Mojave (and later) systems.
