Synchronize enables group and personal task management as well as flexible resource management capabilities. Users have access to individual and group calendars, shared notes, and updated to-do lists. Support for the Internet, printers and portable computers makes it easy to access or take your schedule and project notes with you wherever you go.

Built for performance and simple administration

Synchronize is based on a robust client/server architecture using multi-threaded servers. All schedules, meetings, deadlines, reserved resources, project notes, messages, and work assignments are maintained in a common database stored in the Synchronize server, enabling quick and easy sharing of vital data.

Administrators can easily distribute Synchronize's common database into many networked databases that take advantage of existing servers and networks. The ability to communicate directly across TCP/IP provides real-time access to critical information without the delays typically associated with file-based access methods, e-mail based scheduling, and slow transport protocols.

Advanced architecture makes Synchronize highly scalable: It can be used for enterprise collaboration on LANs, WANs and corporate INTRANETs in organizations ranging from 5 to 50,000 users (or more). Synchronize's distributed database architecture allows administrators to add new users easily and transparently, with no interruption in service.

CrossWind is dedicated to building solutions based on industry standards. As a result Synchronize's interoperability with Web servers and applications is simple and straightforward. As a member of the Internet Engineering Task Force working group, responsible for establishing Internet standards for calendaring and scheduling, CrossWind continues its commitment for interoperability through standards support.

Technical Information

Designed for cross-platform deployments, Synchronize runs on most all commercial UNIX and WINDOWS NT/2000/XP/2003 servers, with desktop access through Web browsers as well as native software clients for Microsoft Windows, X.11/Motif and ASCII desktops.

Affordable with No Hidden Costs

Although some competitive products appear to have a very low per-user price, a good look at the total cost of ownership will reveal that a substantial, continuing investment will be required to assure smooth operations for these products.

Synchronize is easy to deploy and requires no additional expenses for integration into an enterprise's existing environment. Ready "off the shelf," Synchronize does not require programming, extra database servers, or email/messaging platforms.

Since upgrades are backward compatible, they can be done (or not) on a workgroup or departmental basis. Your organization will not be compelled to buy into new releases under the duress of lost support or lack of compatibility.
