I use a tool that I bought called Resilio Sync that has good usability, but not the flexibility that something like rsync would have. Thanks for the advice.

rsync is definitely capable of doing what you want. Check out the man page and use '--dry-run' to see how each command would work.
Also, the -P option (at least on the version I have installed) is for enabling both --partial and --progress. --partial keeps partially transferred files in the event something goes wrong, and --progress shows you the progress of the transfer.
You will probably want to use -r for recursing into your directory structure.
