Tools for keeping data in sync are often mistaken for a backup solution, 
which they are not.

If a file is corrupted, deleted, etc. in one place that will be 
propagated to all copies.

Depending on the features provided by the synchronisation tool they 
could be *a part* of a backup solution.

See http://taobackup.com for what a complete backup solution should 
provide.
