Faster syncing

We've optimized the initial sync to be faster and more reliable than ever. MirrorSync now runs three times faster for initial syncs, and subsequent incremental syncs are much faster too. Speed increases are most noticeable on iOS devices.

More reliable than ever

Not only is MirrorSync faster, it's more reliable as well. Large files with big datasets and complex structures are managed even better with version 1.4. Make sure to replace your MirrorSync script steps to utilize all the improvements.

Repeating Field support

Version 1.4 fixed some issues with repeating fields. To utilize repeating fields in MirrorSync, make sure the sync layouts contain the exact number of repetitions as defined in the field definitions.

Full changelog

Testimonials for MirrorSync

"We've been using our contact manager and adding contacts and estimates, and the sync seems to be working very well. I was surprised at how fast it was on the laptop and the iPad - much much faster than we've experienced before. And the new data is in there."

"I have a very happy client using MirrorSync. He has been using it all day and it has not skipped a beat. They have a ridiculously slow internet connection managed by the office building... Using a local FileMaker file is a HUGE improvement for their daily tasks."

"I am a new user to FileMaker and FileMaker Server, less than 60 days with FMPro12 and less than a week with server. I leased a virtual server with the guys at Triple8, and I downloaded your plug-in and followed the directions and was syncing my first table within 30 minutes!! Thanks for a great product!"

MirrorSync was also listed in the latest FileMaker e-Catalog as a featured product. http://www.filemaker.com/ecatalog/
