<h1>Synchronize + backup</h1>
|
||
|
||
Your files are automatically backed up every few minutes, with the option
|
||
to retain old copies for as long as you need. Accidentally overwritten a
|
||
crucial file? No worries — restore it with just a couple of clicks.
|
||
|
||
<p>This not only provides a quick solution for unintentional errors but
|
||
also ensures your protection against ransomware.

At 11sync.net, you can <a

|
||
with a password</a>.
|

|

<p>This is quite unique in the on-line synchronization and
|

backup space. While we very carefully protect your data, you are

additionally assured that it is impossible to read your files for anyone
|

else but you (or others, with whom you have shared the password).

It synchronizes files between your devices.

<label for="ac-07"><h2>How does 11sync.net differ from other file-hosting providers?</h2></label>
|
||
<div>
|
||
|
||
At 11sync.net, we distinguish through several key features and
|
||
principles:
|
||
|
||
<ul>
|
||
|
||
<li><strong>Privacy-centric:</strong> at 11sync.net, you set your
|
||
password directly on your devices, ensuring that all your files
|
||
are securely encrypted. This encryption means your data remains
|
||
unreadable to anyone without your password, including us. We
|
||
ensure that your files and backups are convenient, safe, and not
|
||
compromising on privacy.</li>
|
||
|
||
<li><strong>Fair and transparent pricing:</strong> we believe in
|
||
straightforward, honest pricing. At 11sync.net, you only pay for
|
||
what you use — the storage and networking resources. We don’t
|
||
charge based on the number of devices, folders, or connected
|
||
peers. Our goal is to provide you with an affordable solution
|
||
without hidden costs or unnecessary fees.</li>
|
||
|
||
<li><strong>Seamless integration:</strong> to get started with
|
||
11sync.net, all you need is Syncthing. We enhance your existing
|
||
file-sharing setup, making it smoother and safer, without adding
|
||
complexity to your digital life.</li>
|
||
|
||
</ul>
|
||
|
||
<p>Choose 11sync.net for a secure, straightforward, and seamless file
|
||
synchronization experience that respects your privacy and finances.

<label for="ac-10"><h2>What is a backup?</h2></label>
|
||
<div>
|
||
|
||
A backup is essentially a copy of your data stored in a different
|
||
location. This is crucial because if you lose your original data, you
|
||
can retrieve it from the backup. Backups are particularly vital for
|
||
preserving data that holds value or importance.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Here are some common scenarios where having a backup proves
|
||
indispensable:</p> <ul>
|
||
|
||
<li>Failure of a hard drive.</li>
|
||
|
||
<li>Misplacing or theft of your computer.</li>
|
||
|
||
<li>Incidents of <a
|
||
href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ransomware">ransomware</a>,
|
||
where your data is held hostage by attackers demanding
|
||
payment.</li>
|
||
|
||
<li>Accidental deletion of crucial files or folders.</li>
|
||
|
||
</ul>
|
||
|
||
<p>11sync.net backs up (i.e. copies to a separate location) your files at
|
||
regular intervals, which could be as frequent as every 10 minutes. These
|
||
backups can be securely stored for extended periods, guaranteeing that
|
||
your data is recoverable. This gives you the assurance and peace of mind
|
||
that your valuable data is safe.

11sync.net is currently in its Private Alpha stage, a critical phase
|
||
where we’re fine-tuning our service with the help of a select group of
|
||
early adopters (my friends and family).
|
||
|
||
<p>Once 11sync.net reaches the level of stability and functionality where
|
||
we can offer it as a paid service, we’re looking forward to expanding our
|
||
user base. If you’re interested, we invite you to join our waiting list.
|
||
Enter your email <a href="#subscribe-section">here</a>, and you’ll be
|
||
added to the waiting list. You will receive a sign-up link in to your

|
||
<div>
|
||
|
||
Source code will be released as soon as 11sync.net leaves private alpha
|
||
(i.e. we start charging for the service). As a heads up, 11sync
|
||
consists of two parts, licensed differently:
|
||
|
||
<ul>
|
||
|
||
<li>User’s control panel:
|
||
<a href="https://spdx.org/licenses/MIT.html">MIT license</a>.
|
||
</li>
|
||
|
||
<li>Everything else:
|
||
<a href="https://spdx.org/licenses/AGPL-3.0-only.html">AGPL-v3</a>.
|
||
</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
|
||
We are licensing user’s control panel under a more permissive MIT
|
||
license, so it can be uplifted to the MIT-licensed <a
|
||
href="https://syncthing.net">syncthing</a> if necessary.

<div>
|
||
|
||
While we have not finalized the exact pricing structure yet, here are the
|
||
guiding principles that will shape our approach:</p>
|
||
|
||
<ul>
|
||
|
||
<li><strong>Cost-Reflective Pricing:</strong> Our pricing will
|
||
directly reflect the actual costs involved in providing our
|
||
services. This means we plan to charge based on the resources you
|
||
use, such as storage space and network bandwidth. This approach
|
||
ensures that you only pay for what you need and use, without any
|
||
hidden fees or surprise charges.</li>
|
||
|
||
<li><strong>Technical Efficiency:</strong> We are continuously
|
||
working to optimize our technical infrastructure to be as
|
||
efficient as possible. This not only enhances performance but
|
||
also helps in keeping operational costs down, savings that we intend
|
||
to pass on to our users.</li>
|
||
|
||
<li><strong>User Feedback:</strong>As we work on our pricing, we will
|
||
be seeking input from our community. Your feedback will be
|
||
invaluable in helping us create a pricing structure that is both
|
||
fair and aligned with user expectations.</li>
|
||
|
||
</ul>
|
||
|
||
<p>We appreciate your patience and interest in 11sync.net. Stay tuned for
|
||
more detailed information on our pricing structure as it is developed.

<p>11sync.net is run by <a href="https://jakstys.lt">Motiejus
|
||
Jakštys</a>. As a software engineer with a passion for technology, I
|
||
dedicate my personal time to develop 11sync.net outside of my regular day
|

job. This project is entirely bootstrapped, with a focus on sustainable
|
||
growth and independence, as I have no plans to seek external funding.
|
||
|
||
<p>My guiding principles for 11sync.net are deeply rooted in both
|

technical excellence and user-centric values:
|
||
|
||
<ul>
|
||
|
||
<li>Do what’s right for the customer.</li>
|
||
<li>Attention to detail creates the best product.</li>

<li>Efficiency matters.</li>

<div>
|

|

No, 11sync.net is not officially affiliated with the developers of
|
||
Syncthing. Despite this, our commitment to the Syncthing community is
|
||
strong. Currently, without a steady cash flow, 11sync.net proudly
|
||
supports Syncthing, as evidenced by our sponsorship (our logo can be
|
||
viewed <a href="https://syncthing.net/downloads/">here</a>). As our
|
||
financial situation evolves, we aim to increase our contributions to
|

support their ongoing development.

<div>
|
||
|
||
Yes, Syncthing indeed champions decentralization, and we fully embrace
|
||
it. At 11sync.net, our role is to complement this decentralized system by
|
||
offering a resilient peer that also does back-ups for you (separately
|
||
from <a
|
||
href="https://docs.syncthing.net/users/versioning.html">versioning</a>).
|
||
|
||
<p>For those who are adept at handling their own backups or already
|
||
possess a reliable, always-on peer, 11sync.net might not be necessary.
|
||
We’re here to provide an additional layer of reliability and convenience
|
||
for those who need it.

</ul>
|

|

<p>Once sign-up emails are sent, your sign-up information will be deleted

as a further step in ensuring your privacy and security. Needless to say,

your e-mail address will not be shared with third-parties.
