cwRsync is an implementation of rsync for Windows.Rsync uses a file transfer technology specified by the rsync algorithm, transferring only changed chunks of files over the network in a given time. cwRsync can be used for remote file backup and synchronization from/to Windows systems. cwRsync contains Cygwin DLLs and a compiled version of rsync on Cygwin.
The rsync algorithm is a type of delta encoding, and is used for minimizing network usage. Zstandard, LZ4, or Zlib may be used for additional data compression, [8] and SSH or stunnel can be used for security. rsync is typically used for synchronizing files and directories between two different systems.
This is a comparison of commercial software in the field of file synchronization. These programs only provide full functionality with a payment. As indicated, some are trialware and provide functionality during a trial period; some are freemium, meaning that they have freeware editions.

BackupPC supports NFS, SSH, SMB and rsync. [5] It can back up Unix-like systems with native ssh and tar or rsync support, such as Linux, BSD, and OS X, as well as Microsoft Windows shares with minimal configuration. [6] On Windows, third party implementations of tar, rsync, and SSH (such as Cygwin) are required to utilize those protocols. [7]
