If you are moving data from where you are to somewhere else and that somewhere else can't get to where you are, then you should use Deploy. For example:
You are at home, you use a wireless router or are at a coffee shop and you have windows firewall on and port 80 and 443 are the only outbound ports open and no inbound, then you'll use Deploy.
If you want to pull that remote site onto your local computer, you can use Synchronize. Synchronize almost always works where you have access to the remote site from a web browser. You may need to configure your
proxy server settings so that your local Qrimp instance can get through your corporate firewall to your remote Qrimp app.
Now, if there are no firewalls between your applications, you can use either Synchronize or Deploy and you'll probably want to make your decision based on which parts of the system you want to transfer. For example, if you want to only push modifications to data from one system to another, choose Synchronize and only check the box by upload changes.
If you want to move system changes only from one Qrimp app to another, use Deploy. Do not click the check box. If you want to completely overwrite the remote app, including the system files and the data files and make that remote app look exactly like the one you are about to deploy, (first read about
Backing up your data)
backup your data, then check the box and click the button.
The reason we want you to backup your data in this scenario is because a loss of network connectivity or a battery failure or browser crash or something like that may jeopardize the synchronize process. This happens rarely, but we can restore either system using the point-in-time database backup.
It is also good to set up an
automated backup process.
