Q: Does it support 2-way synchronization?Ī: Yes. Q: How does this program determine which files are different and which files are the same?Ī: It lets the user decide whether it should compare the actual content of the files or whether to simply compare the size and date of files. Can create automated “batch files” for folder syncing: these can be run from the command line, and will allow you to specify folder(s) to compare, rules for syncing, file extension filters, and other details (see image to the right).You can also save your sessions (which the program calls “configurations”), to quickly re-do the comparisons at a future point in time. Supports multiple folder comparisons simultaneously: which means you can perform all your folder comparisons and synchronizations at once and be done with it.It looks good and delivers a great user experience in the way the items are compared are presented visually, and each entry has a little button that can be used for individual on-the-fly syncing. The interface: this program’s Graphical User Interface is just tremendous.Why do you like it so much?Ī: I like that it supports so many advanced options. Q: You’ve said that this is one of the best directory comparison apps. Before I continue I will point out that for this review I will use a mock question-and-answer format where I pretend I am being interviewed by someone else 🙂 There is also a portable (no-install) version.ĭo you need a directory comparison and synchronization program with a lot of features and options? If so then you’ve just found one of the best free programs in its class. It also offers UniCode and Network support. It can do the following: compare files by their content or by file size and date, synchronize files and subfolders, process multiple pairs of folders at once, load/save folder comparison sessions, create batch jobs that can be run from the command line, and can can handle cloned files (i.e. FreeFileSync is a free/open source folder and file synchronization program that features a beautiful, two pane user interface and a host of powerful options.
