Dmailer was a French company which specialized in portable backup and synchronization software for devices, including USB flash drives, memory cards, external hard disk drives, MP3 players, embedded phone memories, SIM cards and flash-based memory cards for mobile phones.
Serving both consumers and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), Dmailer designed, developed, manufactured and marketed portable backup and synchronization software. Dmailer software products were bundled with SanDisk, Western Digital, Verbatim Corporation, Imation, LaCie, Lexar and other manufacturers’ portable storage products worldwide. Dmailer licensed its patent-pending synchronization engine technology to a number of companies.
Dmailer’s data backup software supports both local and online backup. On March 23, 2010, Dmailer launched a free version of its backup software (Dmailer Backup v3). The software application allows users to perform live backup and online backup of any storage device, as well as to back up PC and Mac platforms locally, via USB drive, CD, mobile device or external hard drive. No software installation is needed to restore data.
It included 2 GB of free storage online through Dmailer Online, an online storage service that backed up secure copies to a remote server for access from any computer. Dmailer Backup v3 restores data to its original location or elsewhere and also performs customized backup.
All product customer support, the Dmailer Sync Product and Dmailer Online service are discontinued. Dmailer technical assets have been bought by Gemalto and are now included in the YuuWaa service.

Dmailer Backup.
Dmailer Backup, developed by Dmailer, was a backup software for Microsoft Windows and OS X operating systems provisory that could back up and restore all of the data of the computer. There were two modes in the application: an Automatic mode, which launched a backup for all the user's data (Documents, Video, Music), and a Custom mode to choose what data would be backed up.
This software included an Online service, called Dmailer Online, with 2 GB for free (lifetime), which allowed the user to send online all the existing backup from the app. This service has been suspended, and data cannot be retrieved anymore.
From version 3.0, the application is free to use, without license costs.
Product history.
Dmailer first launched an email management application in 2001. In French, “demêler” means “To sort, to organize” and it was precisely the goal of the first software of the company: help people manage their emails.
In 2004, the company developed its synchronization software called “Dmailer Sync” that let the users synchronize their PCs to a portable USB drive. In the same year, Dmailer made its first OEM deal with SanDisk and developed a product called “Cruzer Sync”, which is basically Dmailer Sync but branded for SanDisk Cruzer drives.
In 2006, Dmailer started shipping Dmailer Sync along with Western Digital hard drives branded as WD Sync. In 2007 and 2008, Dmailer Sync was shipped along with Lacie and Lexar drives as “Lacie sync” and “Lexar sync” respectively.
In 2009, Dmailer came out with its backup software called “Dmailer Backup” which is shipped with Maxell, EdgeTech, Verbatim and Lexar portable drives. Dmailer Backup is also available for free as a standalone product for customers.
Both Dmailer Sync and Dmailer Backup are coupled with “Dmailer Online”, an online storage service that lets the users backup their files online in secure servers for anytime and anywhere access.
In 2009, Dmailer announced MediaMove. It is media management software that lets the user preview media files, move them from a phone, camera or MP3 to a PC or Mac and share them with friends or upload them to online media-sharing services.
