One universal sync app to sync them all
Replace that pile of outdated, proprietary sync clients
Updated: 2020–06–06
You don’t like having a cluttered pile of remote controls for all of your home’s devices, so why put up with it for your sync clients?
Each of them churns in the background, slowly eating up your computer’s CPU and memory. Each of them may have limitations that you wish you could overcome. Wouldn’t it be great if you could uninstall all of them and just use one really good unified app?
“Yes, it would, especially if…”
- You could to connect to all of your storage sources, even multiple accounts with the same provider.
- You were able to sync things that don’t even have a desktop sync client, like Amazon S3, Wasabi, DigitalOcean, DreamHost, Slack, Facebook, or even your Linux or Windows server via FTP/SFTP/WebDAV.
- You could get additional capabilities like zero-knowledge encryption or placeholder sync to save disk space.
If any of this sounds interesting, keep reading to learn more about what the odrive sync app can do for you.
Unified Access
odrive gives you desktop sync access to all of your files in the cloud under one login. If you have many storage accounts or multiple accounts from the same provider, we can help you manage your files. Each linked storage account appears as a folder in your odrive folder.
Fast, Reliable, Proven Sync
The core Infinite Sync technology has gone through several generations of development as well as multiple years of battle testing and hardening (dating back to our company’s days of providing sync for enterprise customers). Hundreds of thousands of users have put our product through the use cases that matter to them. We aren’t perfect, but this is the main thing we do.
Large Files Support
We’ve even gone a step further by letting you overcome problems uploading large files to your individual providers. Some storage has file size limits, and some storage providers’ clients simply don’t perform well with choppy connections (attempting to upload your file over and over again ad infinitum).
Sync Anything
odrive can sync…
- All major personal cloud storage such as Google Drive, Dropbox, Amazon Drive, and OneDrive.
- Business-class cloud storage such as Dropbox Business, Google G Suite, Box, and OneDrive for Business/Office 365.
- Utility storage such as Wasabi Hot Cloud Storage, Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, DigitalOcean Spaces, and B2.
- Other cloud storage that lacks real-time desktop sync, including ADrive, Yandex Disk, and 4Shared.
- Cloud applications with files, including Slack, Facebook, and Instagram.
- Any file server or service that supports FTP(S), SFTP, and WebDAV.
(and the list is always growing… Check our website for the current list!)
Infinite Sync to Save Disk Space
Do you have so much data in the cloud that to keep it all downloaded on your computer would eat up all of its disk space?
Infinite Sync uses placeholder file stubs (“cloud files”) on your local computer that don’t take up any space to represent the files you have in the cloud. That way you’re not forced to download anything unless you are actively interested in that file on that computer.
Save disk space and bandwidth. This is an improvement over existing selective sync solutions which just exclude folders, so you have to configure it and also remember what you’ve previously excluded.
Create Direct Sync Relationships
Sometimes you want to leave your files in a specific folder on your computer and have it sync to your linked storage (without having to drag files into your odrive folder).
This can be the case if:
- You have applications running which automatically deposit files in a particular location, and you want to leave your files there.
- You want to sync your Downloads folders to your storage and have all of your machines sync with it so you have a common Downloads folder.
Just set up a direct sync relationship using odrive and you’re set.
And More….
There are other great reasons to try out odrive on top of all the sync benefits mentioned above. Here some additional things you can do:
- Share storage collaboratively with another odrive user
- Share weblinks to files and folders with anyone (with optional password protection and/or expiration dates)
- Use the Linux agent for your servers, VMs, desktops, headless boxes… even Raspberry Pis
- Write scripts against our command line interface for automating tasks on Windows, Mac, or Linux.
- Configure bandwidth throttling, custom blacklists, auto-unsync, auto-trash, and other helpful settings to customize your experience.
- Protect your files with zero-knowledge encryption
Maximize Your Sync Experience with odrive
Hopefully, we’ve convinced you to try odrive. Existing sync clients are proprietary, outdated, and losing their individual relevance. The storage services themselves are still quite effective, but you improve can your experience with a replacement sync app.
Whether you’re a connoisseur of multiple cloud storage services, or an unsatisfied user of a single provider’s proprietary sync app… get odrive today and see how we can change the way you work with your files!
