BeyondSync $10
« on: August 19, 2008, 02:13 PM »
Much to my surprise I couldn't find any mention of BeyondSync @ DC.
However, it is for sale at $10 via Bits du Jour on Thursday 21' August 2008. List price: $25

Can anyone tell something about it, from experience, please?  :tellme:

I was going to post that there was one comment on BDJ that appeared to indicate the program was less than promising, but looking today there are a few update comments that show a surprising level of support:

I don't have much need for another sync program so I wasn't going to evaluate it, but the words about the realtime sync sound interesting.

The major reason I was asking if anyone could tell about their experience with BeyoindSync  is  that I have it myself - I got it from Giveawayoftheday - but I don't like it! I was then thinking  that  maybe this is because I haven't figured out how to use it at it's best,  so I better ask.

I'm very happy with SyncBackSE (Now at version 5), so no need to look elsewhere. Probably not too helpful, but I think it's an excellent program with pretty much all the features I need. Will possibly ditch my backup program and only use SyncBackSE, if I find that it can do all I need...

Just a note, BeyondSync Pro is currently up for grabs on GiveAwayOfTheDay if anyone wants to play with it.
