The latest version features a SyncDeK Developer module for maintaining sync configs and tools for simplified synchronization. According to WorldSync, Inc.:

Macworld Expo - WorldSync, Inc. today publicly demonstrated for the first time SyncDeK(R) 5.0, bi-directional asynchronous data replication technology for FileMaker(R) databases.

SyncDeK 5.0 also introduces a new SyncDeK Developer module for establishing and maintaining synchronization settings, controls and options. The SyncDeK Developer provides the advanced tools necessary for developers to simply configure SyncDeK for cost-effective, true synchronization in their FileMaker solutions.
