- Compresses multiple files together to increase compression ratio and reduce the number of file transfer round trip
- Multi-thread file transfer
Distributed Development

- Cache Server. Requested server files are cached on the cache server to speed the client access.
- Time zone offset management
Enhanced Security
- 128-bit Blowfish is used to protect the data
- SSL is used to protect the data
- Password Policy. Protect your password with strong passwords
- Client-server architecture. No need to expose the Visual SourceSafe (VSS) database folder
Cross Platform (Professional Edition Only)
With a Java client, in addition to the standard Windows client, SAW can run on any platform where Java Virtual Machine can run, including Windows, Linux, Mac, Solaris, AIX, HP-UX, SCO Unix, FreeBSD and so on.
"Dynamsoft SourceAnywhere for VSS is recommended by Microsoft as a cross platform solution for Visual SourceSafe."
Less Database Corruption
