Features
Superfast transfers
As files get bigger and bigger, old copy-verify methods just aren’t cutting it. Hedge’s Fast Lane engine is purposely built for speed.
Simultaneous backups
Create as many copies as you need, at the same time. Hedge transfers multiple sources to all destinations, fully utilizing your bandwidth.
Verification, everywhere.
Everything Hedge does is verified, by design. Whether you’re doing a simple copy, need source verification, destination verification, legacy checksums: Checkpoint has your back.
Presets, on steroids
Elements prompts you to add useful metadata to the media files you’re transferring, so that they’re properly labelled. That saves time for everyone else, and makes a smoother workflow.
Keep track of everything
Keep complete track of what goes where, when and how with Transfer Logs. MHLs allow you to re-verify backups later, with the standalone Checkpoint app.
Right-click, Copy, Paste
Your beloved copy/paste just got leveled up. Right-click any file or folder in Finder or Explorer, and you have direct access to OffShoot’s copy engine… and more!
Duplicate Detection
OffShoot’s built-in Duplicate Detection ensures you can pick up any transfer where it left off, without ever running into files with identical filenames.
Filter, Rename, Organize
Still manually creating folder structures? With OffShoot, organization of your files goes a bit further: ignore files, rename everything, and resort your files into new folders – or none at all.
Connect 3.0
The beloved push notification service got another big update, and now comes with an online dashboard. Never wait for a transfer to finish, they’ll let you know when it’s done!
