For sync'ing I'd recommend Forklift for mac users. But I do remember Dir Opus from my Amiga days! Very powerful back then.

I discovered Directory Opus many years ago, and just can't live
without it. So many levels of customization, dual panes, linked
tabs, etc. One very useful feature is the flat view, which shows
all files together even ones in sub-folders, with their location.
It is easy to find something hidden in sub-folder, duplicates etc.
It also has a sync feature, but it is not that robust imho.

Hi all,
Looking for recommendations for file management software,
the sort of thing that can scan a drive / folder and find
duplicates etc.
It sounds so simple and there seem to be 1000 apps out there
that claim to do it, but our IT guy said he’d tried several
and none of them were good enough to recommend.
Main purpose is to try and organise / optimise projects
before they are archived. In some cases, mostly when we
outsource to 3rd parties but also when a project is started
in the office but then completed on-site, we can end up with
3 or 4 project folders with varying degrees of duplicate
files. Sometimes projects can be terabytes in size.
The idea is to copy everything to a single folder for
archiving and avoid duplicates, but also ensure we aren’t
overwriting newer versions of files with older versions.
So obviously it’s easy to google for this and there’s no
shortage of apps out there that CLAIM to do it, but can
anyone recommend one that’s good?

(PS- looking for both Mac and Windows recommednations)
