ISOCOR has the ISOGATE product which is also being used by NCR. (www.isocor.com and www.ncr.com). You can just ask them whether they are general enough. SNI has its own synchroniser product (www.sni.de), and Digital has performs syncrhonisation in its products, but I do not know whether it is part of the product or can be separable. In most cases, synchronisation means uploading or downloading between a standard product format to the X.500 DIB format. So, I am not sure how easily their synchronisation products can be adapted for a very general use. Since ISOGATE is being used by NCR, it looks to be adaptable (they say that they have two such products - one for non-SQL products and the other for SQL related products - I think). Check up their home page for more info.
