SyncBack has no automatical symmetrical file-deletion
No automatical file-deletion at the other side (equal which side) of a sync-folder-pair, if file-deletion-time was later than last-file-change-time at the side, where the file still exists, see screenshot.
Sync-Apps with symmetrical auto-file-deletion are: Allway Sync, PureSync, Synkron.
No other free application than Allway Sync is able to sync directly and reliable a WebDAV-Folder or SD-Memory-Card from a "Windows Mobile" SmartPhone with a Vista PC Folder.
After detailed comparison with many other syncing applications I recommend Allway Sync as the best one, if you have no problems with the restriction of max. 40000 files per months for free private use.
This program is by far the most sensible no hassle backup/synchronisation software in the www. Love these guys for releasing a freeware old version. Hopefully when my needs require it, I will buy the SE new version because they know how to make software that just works. Thank you!
I've also enjoyed this program the most by far (after trying out other free sync programs), but I can't use it anymore since I became forced to use MTP (because I now have to sync my phone over USB), which is sadly not an available feature of the free version.

Great product, that is frequently updated, continuously improved. This has been part of our internal backup methods for over 10 years. Very useful tool
SyncBackFree is very customizable tool for backups. Free version is fit for backing up gigabytes of files to cloud storage via WebDAV.
