ChronoSync

What do you like best?

Chronosync keeps my thousands of files up to date and organized between multiple hard drives.

What do you dislike?

It took me a long time to learn how to use it in a consistent way (years) but my persistence paid off. It seems to be built for people who have a thorough understanding of computers and I am not at that level. There are a lot of ways to set up and use the software. It can be confusing. I'd recommend offering an alternative interface designed to communicate in an easier, step-by-step approach, perhaps illustrated, to make the experience more simple and full-proof.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

Try it out. It is probably capable of doing whatever you need.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

I'm a designer with thousands of files, archived and in current use. I physically transport a remote hard drive between two offices, each with it's own Mac. I sync and update all three drives as I travel back and forth. I have redundancy in backup which is safer and I've found that I cannot achieve this kind of syncing online. Maintaining large graphic files locally enhances convenience and speed.
