    A back-up tool but missing a lot of stuff. Can't decide witch too to use. Comodo made a nice one but AlwaySync is also great.

    Handy program. The only thing that bugs me about this program is that it seems to have issues if the folder depth is too deep....while other programs don't seem to have this issue. Hey ho, hopefully that will be fixed in the new version.

    Great program. I just upgraded from 1.4 to 2.0. Anyone know what the differences are? So far I can only see "rename folder pair"....

    Excellent for backing up to an external HDD. Version 2 now works from the command-line, so creating a scheduled task to handle my backups was a snap.

    I use it to sync my mp3-collection to my network player. It works great.

    I also tried allwaysync, but that program had troubles with some characters.

    I love it for backing up my iTunes media files to my external HDD, you can just tell it to change the folders/files that need changed not writing 20+GB files over and over (or click "yes" replace that and not that... 1000s of times).

    Não tem uma interface clara para se trabalhar com rede, mas ainda sim é possível usa-lo para gerenciar arquivos em uma rede. Muito bom, acho que uma das unicas coisas boas da MS.

    Love this program! I use it to synchronize my USB sticks and other external drives.
    After finishing working on a project (for the day) I sync my work folder to my USB stick so that I have the same versions on both. So that I can continue working on another machine with my most recent versions (on which I install synctoy as well)

    A free tool that allows you to backup your data. Rule No. 1: Always have more that one copy of your data.
