Compare HULFT IoT vs. SureSync

HULFT IoT serves as a robust managed file transfer middleware tailored for IoT devices, effectively safeguarding against data loss in essential scenarios like payment processing, security, and monitoring. While utilizing protocols like MQTT or HTTPS for IoT data gathering demands a learning curve for users, HULFT IoT simplifies the process by requiring only the installation of its software, thus enabling swift data collection. Additionally, with the integration of DataSpider Servista, our enterprise application integration (EAI) tool, users can seamlessly connect multiple applications to the data gathered by HULFT IoT without any coding, as the setup process is entirely based on drag-and-drop functionality. A machine tool manufacturer previously conducted on-site inspections and maintenance for their customers, during which each device generated operational log data. By analyzing this data, they were able to forecast maintenance needs effectively. To enhance their operational efficiency, the company sought to implement remote monitoring of devices and schedule maintenance personnel as needed. However, the challenge arose with each device producing approximately 10GB of log data daily, complicating their data management efforts further. To address this, they recognized the necessity of a streamlined solution that could handle such vast amounts of data efficiently.

SureSync is a file replication and synchronization application that provides one-way and multi-way processing in both scheduled and real-time modes. Processing can be performed via UNC path, FTP, or with our Communications Agent. Features of the Agent include real-time monitors, delta copies, TCP transfers, compression, and encryption. The agent must be installed on a Windows machine. File Locking enables real-time collaboration and is available in SureSync Managed File Transfer (MFT). With file locking a file opened by a user in one office will be read-only for users in other offices until changes have been saved and synchronized. MFT also includes archiving to create versioned file backups, enhanced cloud support and more. SQL Protection simplifies backups of critical SQL databases.
