Installation & setup

SynergyOS provides web applications, desktop applications for Windows and Mac OS, and mobile applications for iOS and Android. We also provide add-ins for Microsoft Office and Outlook.

Summary of the key items to do:

1. SynergyOS web app
2. Install Synergy Tools / Synck in Windows / Mac
3. Install mobile app for iOS / Android
4. Install Microsoft Office / Outlook Add-ins (optionally)

Now, let's set it up together step by step:

1. SynergyOS.com web app

SynergyOS is primarily accessed through the web application at synergyOS.com. Enterprise accounts also have the option to deploy their own application at their own domain (synergyos.example.com). The webapp works best in Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge since both browsers have advanced features to install Progressive Web Applications.

2. Install Synergy Tools / Synck in Windows / Mac

Synck is a bridge application between the SynergyOS web applications and your computer operating system (Windows and Mac) to open all files from SynergyOS with your native desktop applications and save all changes back to the cloud automatically. We strongly recommend that you install Synck which expands the capabilities of the web application to provide additional features which are not available on the web platform (example: open files with desktop applications, attach files, or compare files).

Go to SynergyOS Downloads and select your operating system for Synck and proceed with the install instructions.
