EteSync - Secure Data Sync vs Yivi
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
EteSync - Secure Data Sync
Secure, end-to-end encrypted, and privacy respecting sync for your contacts, calendars, and tasks (using Tasks.org and OpenTasks). For notes, please use the EteSync Notes application. In order to use this application you need to have an account with EteSync (paid hosting), or run your own instance (free and open source). Check out https://www.etesync.com/ for more information. Easy to Use =========== EteSync is very easy to use. It seamlessly integrates with Android so you won't even notice you are using it. Security doesn't always have to come at a cost. Secure & Open ============ Thanks to zero-knowledge end-to-end encryption, not even we can see your data. Don't believe us? You shouldn't, just verify yourself, both the client and server are open source. Full History ========= A full history of your data is saved in an encrypted tamper-proof journal which means you can review, replay and revert any changes you have made at any point in time. How does it work? =============== EteSync integrates seamlessly with your existing apps. All you need to do is sign up (or run your own instance), install the app, and enter your password. After that, you will be able to save your contacts, calendar events and tasks to EteSync using your existing Android apps, and EteSync will transparently encrypt your data and update the change journal in the background. More security, same work-flow.
Yivi
Yivi is an app that lets you easily and securely log in, share data and prove who you are. Without sharing too much about yourself. With Yivi, you take control of your data. You always see what an organisation wants to know about you and you decide whether to share that data. Your data is only stored on your mobile, safely behind a PIN code. No one is watching, not even Yivi. That's how safe it is. Yivi is being developed by Caesar Groep, in close collaboration with the Privacy by Design Foundation, whose original work forms the foundation of the system. Previously known as “IRMA,” the Yivi ID wallet is fully open source and designed with privacy and user-friendliness at its core.
