OpenSync is a server based product designed to perform a QuickBooks sync to and from an external database including Microsoft Access, MS SQL Server, Azure, MySQL, or Oracle. This provides a platform for building highly scalable applications that integrate with QuickBooks. Applications for this replication engine include web site integration, custom report generation and publishing, time tracking applications and Microsoft SharePoint integration. With the OpenSync QuickBooks sync solution, you can avoid the overhead of learning the QuickBooks API and use standard database tools to read and update QuickBooks data. Performance bottlenecks inherent in the QuickBooks QODBC driver and the QuickBooks Web Connector are eliminated since the sync technology enables you to run your application against a true database server. Forget about import and export tools, OpenSync provides near real time database synchronization with QuickBooks.
QuickBooks sync tasks can be run either interactively through the OpenSync configuration program or in the background by the OpenSync background processing service. The OpenSync service can be configured to run even without having to log on to the machine and can be controlled through the configuration program.
