Also, a friend of mine who put me onto this site, has also suggested I look at a sync program called 'Super Flexible File Synchronizer'. There must be lots of them, the trouble is which one does the best job. I still think the reverse delta concept of OB is good, and the delta concept itself is space saving, but you need to test them all in your own environment and data topography, and be aware of why and when you need versionong in addition to straight synchronization.

Basically, the discussions are just academic till you hit volume data, that's the real test, but if you don't have to manage GBs of data, then the useability of the product becomes the primary focus, which is certainly where OB comes in as a backup program despite the issues with the above three actions.

I guess this is why there are so many opinions, it all depends on how much data ypu have, where it is, and how you manage it.

My three actions listed above help alot for me at the moment in judging products. Useability is second and automation is third. I'm not so much worried about compression and storage space as opposed to the rate at which it grows under the afore mentioned actions.

I haven't had a chance to look at 'Super Flexible File Synchronizer' yet and won't for a week or two, but it reads interestingly, so will evenually give it a go.

Oh, and as for SyncToy, I believe it has only become useable since version 2.0, but still lacks versionong and automation, but look at my attachment script above if interested in using it for sync requirements as it is free.
