Datto Workplace holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Datto Workplace has 891 ratings behind it against 28, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 22% of Synced Tool's written reviews are positive against 14% of Datto Workplace's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Synced Tool ships an update monthly, Datto Workplace every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on August 13, 2026 and September 17, 2026 respectively.
