International Data Sharing

Compétition Inc. Serves Multiple Sites on Different Continents

Competition Inc., a leading manufacturer of swimming pool equipment uses SyncDeK to synchronize manufacturing order information between multiple FileMaker Servers, running at their manufacturing plant in China and their headquarters in Laval (Quebec). SyncDeK's data replication technology makes it possible for each location to access a copy of the manufacturing database locally. Users in Laval access their server on the LAN with the standard FileMaker client, and users in China access their local server with Windows Terminal Services.

The Solution

SyncDeK communicates data between both database servers at regular intervals. The Result is improved local database access speeds at each location, and elimination of the troubleshooting that had plagued the Result's attempts at supporting remote access across the globe.

"The SyncDeK product is great, and the technical support team are there if I need them," said Dominic Russell of Competition, Inc. "SyncDeK synchronizes our servers through morning, evening and night-it is reliable like the sun rising and setting."
