What is Session?
If you you often compare 2 specific folders (such
as Work and Backup folders) there is no need to select it manually
again and again. Synchronize It! can help you by saving all
comparison settings into Session, so you can quickly pickup
and reuse it later.
Thus Session is just a named combination of:
- Source and target objects to compare (folder, archives,
etc);
- File mask to use;
- All additional settings - subfolders mask, comparison rule,
advanced filters etc.;
- Synchronization Action to use.
Once configured, you can easily recall Session from
the list or use command line interface to
automate your task.
What is Project?
If your common task include more than single pair
of folders to compare, you can combine several Sessions into

single call. One Session can be included in several Projects.
