Resilio Sync Reviews & Product Details

I use Resilio Sync to synchronize, share, and organize documents between different devices in the workplace. The tool has been secure, fast, and reliable, making it perfect for sharing big files privately. I like its offline sync capability and secure file storage without high reliance on the cloud, as well as the fast and reliable file transfer. The ease of use and how it integrates with other third-party applications are also great. I'm sure to share my files and access them on a different device securely. Offline access to files is great, and the initial setup was very easy. I would highly recommend Resilio Sync to anyone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like the limitation on the number of devices you can use in the free version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Resilio Sync to sync files directly between my own devices like a laptop and desktop. This gives me control over my data, helping preserve privacy. I appreciate that it eliminates the forced cloud storage problem and handles very large files without issues. What I like most is that my files stay private, with no company having access to my data, and there are no storage limits. No third-party server ever touches my files, allowing me to stay in control of where my data is. The setup was super easy, and because of the increased privacy and control over my archived files, I switched from Dropbox. It's honestly the best tool for these needs.

Conflict handling works but simultaneous edits can still create “conflict” copies you must reconcile.

While Resilio Sync offers a unique approach to data sharing, bypassing the need for traditional uploads/downloads, there are moments when its syncing speed feels a tad sluggish, especially when compared to direct uploads on certain cloud platforms.
