Not compatible with Multisite. A note should be added to the plugin description 
page saying as much. As soon as the description is updated accordingly, I’ll remove
this review. 🙂

### 󠀁[Perfect!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/perfect-1192/)󠁿

 [rightmost](https://profiles.wordpress.org/rightmost/) October 10, 2016

After trying 2 other db sync plugins that failed to work, I stumbled across this
one. Simple to install and worked perfectly. Syncing is really quick as well, easily
the fastest sync tool I have used.

After two days of looking how to sync localhost and remote sites I found this great
and simple solution… Works perfect!

### 󠀁[WOW!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wow-443/)󠁿

Is this wizardry? This plugin works so seemlessly it’s amazing! I love that it pulls
the ACF stuff as well which is a huge time saver. Another issue is the media uploads
which this helps with as well. Simply sync up the two databases and then ftp your
uploads and both db’s are in perfect lockstep!
