What is IDAutomation File Replicator and how does it work?
 IDAutomation File Replicator is a directory mirroring, file synchronization
and backup utility that synchronizes data files between 2 or more directories
on laptops, desktops and servers. The synchronization application runs in
Windows and can replicate directories that are accessible by common UNC naming
conventions. This utility
also keeps a complete history of all updated files and creates backup
copies of any files that are deleted or moved.
This
product is commonly used in the following configurations:
- Users with laptops replicate to the server when
they are in the office, so they have access to all necessary files when
they travel. For example, a laptop user replicates their "My Documents"
folder with their Home Directory on the server when in the office. This
also ensures that all local files are available on the server and that
old copies of updated or deleted files are available on the laptop if
they are needed.
- A user at a small business or home office
creates a replica on a laptop as a means of data backup and it also
becomes an off-site storage device for disaster recovery.
- As a SOHO synchronization and backup utility,
replicas are created on 2 or more PCs without the need for a dedicated
file server.
- Internet Explorer favorites are synchronized between two or
more PCs.
Why did we create it?
We created IDAutomation File Replicator to satisfy our own internal
need for a utility that would do the following:
- Backup large amounts of data without the use of
a tape drive.
- Keep a complete revision history of all updated
files.
- Store files off-site for disaster recovery.
- Provide complete copies of all data on the file server, laptop
and desktop PCs.
It is especially important for us to be able to replicate files to
our laptop PCs because we often find ourselves working from home or on
the road. This product worked so well for us, we decided to market it.
