    Hi Ambily-7495,

    i want to synchronize data from one server to another at a scheduled time every day.

    Agree with Olaf. You can use the high availability and disaster recovery feature of SQL Server to synchronize data with the least possible downtime.
    SQL Server Log shipping allows you to automatically send transaction log backups from a primary database on a primary server instance to one or more secondary databases on separate secondary server instances. Please refer to About Log Shipping.

    Replication is a set of technologies for copying and distributing data and database objects from one database to another and then synchronizing between databases to maintain consistency. Please refer to SQL Server Replication.
    Database mirroring maintains two copies of a single database that must reside on different server instances of SQL Server Database Engine. Please refer to Database Mirroring.

    I am tried with ApexSQL Tool kit. But, didn't work for me.

    Please refer to this ApexSQL article which might help.
    Best Regards,
    Amelia
