Very Large Databases

Smartphone, Tablet & PC Syncing
The Zync Cloud Sync service runs on wholly owned synchronisation software Ambersync designed by Zync Solutions to work in partnership with the Device Data Capture Apps.
Fast & Efficient
Designed from the ground up work with Smartphones with large databases, all information is optimised to make the synchronisation time as short and as low cost as possible. To help this users can sync via USB tethered to PC, WIFI, or any mobile network data protocol (eg GPRS, 3G, 4G, HSDPA+ etc)
