I'm not aware of any way to sync books on the Kobo. I only read side-loaded books on mine. I don't have any Kobo books. But I've never actually looked for a way to sync them so I can't be sure.

Right now I'm reading my current book on my Koba Aura and sometimes on my phone using Moon+ reader, so any syncing I do has to be manual. That's fairly trivial to do. At the end of a session I make a mental note about what chapter I'm in and something about what's going on or where I am in that chapter. When I begin a new session on a different device it only takes a few seconds to find my place.

With the Kindle I can sync non-Amazon books as long as I send them to Amazon for downloading.

The problem with Amazon's sync is it begins to be a habit and after doing it for a few books I find myself hesitating to read on the Kobo without automatic syncing. When I notice that I usually make a point to read one to break the habit. Syncing is a nice feature but a very unimportant one.
