Data synchronization is a very effective method of keeping data that is stored in multiple locations in sync with each other. A classic example is a user who works with a desktop computer at home and takes a notebook to work. Synchronizing the data between the desktop computer and notebook ensures that the most up to date information can be accessed no matter which computer is used to do so.
Other prime examples include syncing data between computers and a wireless device, cell phone, digital camera or mp3 player. A user could use it to move photos taken with a digital camera to a PC, transfer new mp3 songs to the mp3 player or upload new applications to a mobile phone.
Synchredible is a free data synchronization software that can be used to synchronize data in one way or bi-directionally. Each synchronization is created as a new job with the job wizard which guides the user through the creation.
It always begins by selecting two folders that are currently accessible from the computer system Synchredible is executed from. Supported are local storage devices like hard drives, removable devices like USB drives and network devices that are currently connected to the computer. It is here also that the user makes the selection if subfolders should be synchronized as well.
The synchronization direction can be selected in the second step. It is possible to synchronize the data in one way or bi-drectionally. Additional criteria for the synchronization are configured in the third step. This includes the option to either synchronize all files, only newer files, only files with archive bits and to delete additional files and folders in the target directory if one way synchronization is selected.
This can be further customized in step four which provides the means to include or exclude files and folders using filters that support wildcards.
The data synchronization can be scheduled in the fifth step. This ranges from executing the synchronization every x minutes over executing it on specific days of the week or month to running it on system events that include Windows start, logoff and USB device detection.
Users can create actions that should be executed before and after a synchronization has started and finished. Further settings are defined in the final step. In here it is possible to select a job name and group, make the program check file contents as well before synchronizing data, deleting the archive bit and showing previews before starting the data synchronization.
Syncredible is a sophisticated data synchronization software for the Windows operating system that is free for personal use. It can be directly downloaded from the developer’s website.

I could not figure out how this is different than SyncBack SE.
Anyways, I am looking for a software that synchronizes data over the internet. Opening an FTP would be an option but is there a dropbox like utility that will synchronize the data in P2P fashion (i.e. without storing in cloud) and I have huge amount of data.
Pros: Syncredible is the best sync program I have seen since the paid version of Allwaysync, maybe better because it’s free. Excellent Job.
Cons: When the job completes a most annoying popup appears that has to dealt with. I could find no means to dampen this popup, so I reluctantly uninstalled it!
yeah good app but popup is annoying
I am using Ubuntu One. It works as a breeze, over internet and can synchronize many computers, not just two.
