awesome software.  recommended here on dc years ago, and ive been using it for a long time.  Pretty complicated, but super reliable, and one of the most active developers on the planet.

Thoughts on Syncovery -- Upgrade pricing and the different versions available:

I probably should have gotten this BDJ at the time:
I have an older license (over four years old). The upgrade system is clearly explained and seems fair enough: I paid ~60€ at the time, I get 25% of that off of the current price.

But the version I have has 'file system monitoring' -- in order to get that now, one has to buy the Premium version which is 99$/€
That's too much for my current (minimal) usage, even at 50% of that I'd have reservations.
OTOH I think I had to upgrade once in over ten years usage, and the support is excellent.
Will decide when the next bdj offer comes around :-)

That's too much

Does that mean real-time monitoring of files and folders?  If so, SyncBackPro is about £55.95...  which is much the same.  Alternatively there's AJC Active Backup at £29.60, but that's all it does, not 'normal' backups, which AJC serve by a separate program, AJC Sync.  I never used AJC Active Backup very much, and haven't ported it to the latest laptop.
