Data workflows have become automated and unified while support and security still need improvement
There are times when you are streaming and trying to connect that CData Sync fails. However, the team has been very helpful. There is a particular technical support person that has usually come to my aid whenever there are issues. For improvement, I think the turnaround time for support can increase, especially on weekends. I want to discuss the security of CData Sync. It is not something I actually have visibility to, but I think if CData Sync could give users the opportunity to put their own security layer on this, that would be beneficial. If CData Sync is compromised, who do we hold responsible? So security is an area for improvement. CData Sync's interface is good. For integration with other tools, I think CData Sync could do well by integrating with other providers, especially AI agents so that one can easily integrate CData Sync to more agents out there.

It very easy to setup and manage unless you have network problems.
There were restrictions when migrating from older to newer versions of Windows. As soon as the target disk is mounted on the higher level of Windows, NTFS file system will automatically be upgraded by Windows and will no longer be compatible with the source system. This means that migration cannot be resumed and a full refresh was needed to re-synchronize the source and target disks.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The beautiful thing about CData Sync is that you can preview the data directly on their UI."
"Without CData Sync, I estimate that the project would have taken us about six or seven months, but given that we had CData Sync, we were able to conclude the project within four months."
"TDMF resolved these problems with easy and fast data migrations."
 

Cons

"The first improvement I would like for CData Sync is the user interface, which sometimes does not allow for custom sorting of jobs, making pipeline management cumbersome at scale, especially when you want to do custom sorts or filters, plus the limited transformation capability means that since CData Sync is primarily a replication tool, complex transformations require external tools."
"There are times when you are streaming and trying to connect that CData Sync fails."
"Mobility Groups crashes sometimes and a re-synchronization were needed"
