Multi-Site Synchronisation to Empower Global Workflows

NAS-to-NAS synchronisation
Improve workflow efficiency and team alignment across data sites with automatic one- or two-way site-to-site syncing.

Cloud-powered multi-site syncing
Empower global workflows with high-speed access to data from anywhere in your network. Synology’s hybrid cloud solution caches frequently used files locally for rapid access, while less frequently accessed data is stored in the cloud, reducing your on-site storage requirements.

Sync to public cloud providers
Automatically keep data in sync between the DS1825+ and major cloud providers, including BackBlaze B2, Dropbox, Google Drive, and Microsoft OneDrive. Multiple protocol support, client-side encryption, and customisable sync and bandwidth controls enable efficient storage management across various platforms.
