SureSync
By Visma Connect
Easy Setup and Ongoing Reliability: Setup was described as straightforward, with one G2 reviewer noting a smooth installation. Post-setup, operations are “set and forget,” creating a low-maintenance solution that runs quietly and effectively.
Flexible Scheduling and Real-Time Automation: Users appreciate the dual modes of scheduled and real-time synchronization—enabling 24/7 or timed backups as needed—and the reliability this brings to critical infrastructure.
Powerful Security Features: The platform’s FIPS-certified encryption and bit-level synchronization were praised for bolstering data security. Its file-locking capability, specifically in the collaboration version, was lauded for preventing accidental overwrites and ensuring version control.
Reliable File Replication and Synchronization: Users consistently praise SureSync’s ability to handle robust file replication and synchronization across multiple servers and sites.
Lack of Online Purchasing and Support Responsiveness: The absence of an immediate online purchase option was seen as outdated compared to modern SaaS practices. One reviewer mentioned a three-day delay in customer support response to an installation issue.
Platform Limitations: Some users noted SureSync's Windows-only support as restrictive, especially in environments that include Linux or macOS systems. There’s also no official support for iOS platforms.
Perceived High Cost: The entry-level cost (~$495 per license) was considered steep by some users, especially when compared to lower-cost alternatives more suitable for small businesses.
