Great together with using self coded transformations inside the Cloud Connectors dynamic columns. > > **Cons**: The UI is very Windows2000ish. Its using the MMC UI, that is ok, you can configure your connection, but its not state of the art design any more. > > After 30 minutes my data was in sync. No the Connector runs every 2 hours. I have set up bi-directional syncs also as simple one-side-to-another. It runs. ----- ### "Layer2 Cloud Connector" — 4.0/5 > **Pilvilampi** | *16 August 2023* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The Layer2 Cloud Connector ensured that the integration between our ERP and SharePoint was smooth. The support team at Layer2 deserves a special mention. Whenever we had questions or faced minor hiccups, their team was right there, ensuring we had the answers and solutions we needed. > > **Cons**: The current UI gets the job done, but there's potential for a more modern, intuitive, and visually appealing interface. A more refined UI could make the process even smoother. ----- ### "Review of Layer2" — 5.0/5 > **Eoin** | *9 January 2024* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Works in background, allows clients connect and review their data we host > > **Cons**: Original license non transferable when server upgraded > > OK but as a new server live we couldn't transfer the original license from the decommissioned server ----- ### "Layer 2" — 5.0/5 > **Chris** | *1 February 2022* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Layer 2 makes it very easy to keep data in sync between multiple sources. Our primary use for this product is syncing data between SharePoint and SQL and it does this flawlessly. The product is very reasonably priced and support is quick to respond if you need help. We have used this for about 4 years now and it is one of the few product we have that you can set and forget. > > **Cons**: I think the only improvements would be an improved interface that offers help right in the window you need. I don't end up in this application very often though so this is a pretty small con. ----- ### "Layer2 data synch" — 5.0/5 > **Dennis** | *27 July 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy set up, clear logging. Integrates with MANY applications, I am using for onedrive/sharepoint specifically as well as server to server synchronization > > **Cons**: Nothing really bad, just took multiple steps to enable and turn on scheduling for continuous synch > > I was able to use a combination of onedrive sync and layer2 cloud connector to more quickly and accurately sync data from onedrive/sharepoint to a target server then sync that server with a local file server for a cloud/local repository implementation with fewer error and conflicts than onedrive sync tool ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/419983/layer2-cloud-connector?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/419983/layer2-cloud-connector) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
