The record

Purpose: SmartSynchronize is a file and directory comparison tool that can compare files, perform three-way merges, and keep directory structures synchronized.
File comparison: File Compare detects changes within lines, lets users edit compared files, and transfer changed blocks between them.
Directory comparison: Directory Compare compares two local directory structures and shows added, removed, and modified line counts for each file.
File manager: Its dual-pane file manager supports file tasks including copy, move, delete, archive handling, and searching by name or content.
Synchronization: Directory comparison can automatically synchronize based on file times and the time of the previous synchronization.
Remote file support: The 4.2 release notes say SFTP support allows uploading, downloading, deleting, and creating directories on remote servers.
Command-line use: SmartSynchronize provides a command-line interface for invocation from other applications.
Supported systems: The download page provides packages for Windows 10 or later, macOS 10.14 or later for Intel, macOS 11 or later for Apple Silicon, and 64-bit Linux with GTK 3.24 or later.
License limits: A license is per user rather than per machine, and each user can use it on as many machines as they like.
Updates: The purchase page says a license includes bug-fix releases of the current version and allows use of major versions released within one year after purchase.
Support: The download page directs users to contact support, and the contact page says paid how-to support is available to license purchasers.
Security and privacy: Syntevo's privacy policy says its website uses SSL or TLS encryption to protect transmission of personal data and other confidential content.

Headquarters: Ainring, Germany
