Syncovery

Syncovery backs up and synchronises folders on Windows, macOS and Linux. It connects to Zata with its S3 protocol. You put the Zata endpoint in the bucket field, as bucketname@host.

Before you start

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