About

The Layer2 Cloud Connector can keep data and files in sync across 100+ IT platforms and apps. It can connect to Microsoft Office 365, SharePoint, Teams, Dynamics, Azure, SQL, Windows File Shares, and various SQL/ERP/CRM systems of other vendors like SAP, Salesforce, Google, Oracle, IBM, QuickBooks, JIRA, ServiceNow, and many more. It can also connect using generic API interfaces, such as ODBC, OLEDB, OData, XML, SOAP, REST/JSON, and more. The tool can be used for code-free data and file migration, backup, and two-way synchronization with flexible options. It will be installed on an on-prem or cloud-based Windows Server of the client and runs under full customer control (no vendor-based cloud-service). It does not require changes in the connected systems. It comes with a free version and several editions with pricing starting at $439 one-time fee. Layer2 is a Hamburg/Germany-based software business founded in 1991 with 2500+ clients and 250+ implementation partners all over the world.
