IT teams can utilize the selective sync functionality to synchronize selected folders or files and sub-folders across multiple devices. Resilio Sync lets supervisors grant/revoke permissions to employees, allowing them to access specific files related to allocated tasks. The application allows employees to display real-time statuses of file transfers by displaying information such as remaining time, upload-speed details and more. Additionally, users can utilize mobile applications on Android and iOS devices to automatically create backups of photos or videos, even from remote locations. Resilio Sync comes with an application programming interface (API), which facilitates integration with several third-party platforms, such as OneHub, Git, Jenkins, Mulesoft and more. Pricing is available on monthly subscriptions and support is extended via phone, email and other online measures. > > Verdict: Rated **4.4/5** by 39 users.

Our team uses this to share large media files because we cannot send them via email or another software. I think it is much better than dropbox because you don't have to log in or worry about the storage size. > > **Cons**: Sometimes there is a lag time between when you drop a media file in the folder, but it usually isn't more than an hour or so. > > Resilio is one of the best subscriptions we have as a team. It is highly recommended if you work with large files that are difficult to email or send otherwise. ----- ### "Excellent if security is your priority; learning curve inevitable for some." — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *2 January 2019* | Security & Investigations | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Love that my information is secure and not stored on servers in unknown locations. I enjoy that I can share folders located anywhere on my PC. The backup "archive" feature is wonderful at ensuring any changes/deletions can be mitigated if unwanted. > > **Cons**: Some challenges when sharing folders with multiple people; occasionally I have to recreate a folder in order for all to be able to view/connect with it, which is problematic when users are located in a variety of locations and most are new to the program. There is some learning curve for some users to understand that the files are not being kept in a 3rd party location, such as file sharing programs where you can view the files online, because they are being stored by the company offering the service. > > Our experience with Resilio Sync has been positive, due to the overall security of our information, since we are in an industry where this factor is paramount. There have been some hiccups in introducing the system to others we work with, but the pros outweigh the cons for us. There are enough features to mitigate an error any user may makes when sharing company files and projects. ----- ### "maybe good for developers" — 3.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *28 December 2018* | Biotechnology | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: Generally this software works to sync our server to our individual computers but we've had a myriad of challenges getting it to work. It's not intuitive for a 'non-computer geek.' > > **Cons**: It's hard to use. The GUI is really not intuitive. > > Synchronizing files and data. ----- ### "Sync is an excellent way to synchronize data securely across machines." — 4.0/5 > **Tim** | *7 March 2018* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I used to be a heavy Dropbox user but have migrated to Resilio Sync for all of my data sync needs. The product is much more secure and does not quietly change your data without notice. It also truly works in a cross-platform setup and can optionally save files that are deleted or replaced by a remote node. > > **Cons**: Sync requires a little bit of planning and work to set up effectively. The administration is typically done in the browser which may not be to everyone's taste. File system overlays would be nice to have. ----- ### "GREAT product, TERRIBLE support" — 4.0/5 > **Jake** | *17 September 2018* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The peer to peer and server to server syncing is fantastic. We use it primarily for syncing servers together for multiple locations. Nearly instantaneous syncing, even with millions of files. Truly best in class performance, as long as you have some fairly beefy hardware. > > **Cons**: The support. Absolutely terrible. Intuit or AT\&T levels of bullshit terrible. Insultingly, amazingly, brutally awful. Might as well come with a caveat emptor label. Pretty sure Google Translate is involved, I also suspect infinite monkeys on keyboards. > > Despite the total excrescence that is their support, the product is actually so good that we use it anyway. Just make sure that you have plenty of RAM, whatever you think you need, double it. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/101246/resilio-sync?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/101246/resilio-sync) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
