Automatically Sync on Logon and Logoff
Using the "Auto Sync on Windows Logon and Logoff" setting, you can
setup your employee files to be locally available on every computer,
yet always be current on a centralized company server:
On Logon GoodSync syncs company server to the local computer, thus
downloading updated files from the server to the client.
On Logoff GoodSync automatically syncs local computer to the company
server, thus uploading changed local files to the
server. |

Environment Variables in Folder Paths
Using environment variable such as %USERNAME% in folder paths of the
sync job allows you to setup one set of jobs that would work for all
employees. For example, you can set-up a job that syncs
"%USERPROFILE%" to "\\NETSHARE\BACKUPS\%USERNAME%" once every day and
then copies jobs.tic file (list of jobs) to all employees GoodSync
profile. Using the above settings sets up an environment where every
employee has an automatic backup job that syncs their profile to the
backup server. |

Command Line and Task Scheduler
A sync job can be created and started using the GoodSync command
line. This allows you to easily call GoodSync from batch files as
well as any other program. Also GoodSync can be easily run from the Windows
Task Scheduler; you can program the Task Scheduler directly from
GoodSync Options -> Auto dialog. |

Job Templates
Job Templates allow you to pre-program the most popular jobs used
by the company, requiring minimal input from the user of simply
specifying the backup/sync folder location. Since employees may have difficulty establishing advanced
features such as file exclusions correctly, using Job Templates
increases the ease of use for your employees. |

Auto Backup of Replaced Files
You can set-up GoodSync to automatically save a copy of the file that
GoodSync is about to replace when syncing. This setting allows you to
always maintain the last two versions of any file.
