GoodSync

GoodSync backs up or synchronises folders between your computer and cloud storage. It connects to Zata through its Amazon S3 account type with the Zata endpoint as the server address.

Before you start

• A bucket. See Create a bucket.
• An access key from the same region as the bucket. See Access keys.
• GoodSync installed.
