I'll often end up modifying MP3 tags, renaming, and resorting files into different directories on the individual hard drives, and then need to make sure those changes are also reflected in the primary backup. I purchased GoodSync2Go during Bitsdujour's last offering, and it has been great to be able to use one license to back up my laptop to the individual drives, and then the individual drives to the main backup, keeping everything in sync.
Thumbs up! Apr 1 at am Copy Link Like. Siber Systems Doug: Thanks for the kind words. Sally: Yes, however we have a separate version for Mac desktops. Ash Goyal Got introduced to Goodsync's free version when I bought Roboform and needed to sync passwords. Excellent program! Apr 1 at pm Copy Link Like. GoodSync is best for computers connected over a network while GoodSync2Go is designed for "sneakernet" connections. Does that basically cover the differences?
I can imagine some non-technical home users having trouble picturing all of this and just giving up. Pro page if it's there I didn't see it. Mike G Just got home. Less than an hour remaining for the discount, maybe Siber Systems could squeeze in one more response! I already purchased GoodSync2Go this morning, but what I need to do is sync to my own storage to keep Roboform and other apps synchronized on two different PC's.
I have have RoboForm not Roboform2Go. Having to deal with all these different licenses is a bit too much Apr 2 at pm Copy Link Like. I use it all the time, the quality and performance of this software is excellent.
Note that the Policy stated above is incorrect. Sep 23 at pm Copy Link Like. Siber Systems Thanks for your kind words. The BDJ back-end didn't have that option. You are correct that GoodSync2Go can be used on unlimited desktops since the USB drive can of course be moved back and forth :- However, we do not want users to think they can license for unlimited USB drives. PG BNax Why were the old comments removed?
Those discussions frequently yield valuable info for potential purchasers. Oct 1 at am Copy Link Like. Please click the link that says 'Reveal 17 Old Comments'. Billie Gray Must the backups be created with other backup software? Jim Willis I tried to find the old comments twice and they are not still there.
What happened? Robert S Is there a way to transfer my license to a different external hard drive if the one I install it on fails and cannot be used anymore? C Reddy Does " per USB drive for non-concurrent use only " mean it can be installed on only one USB drive in this case, non-concurrent use seems redundant since the USB drive is singular and cannot be used in multiple instances or can be installed on any number of USB drives but only one USB drive can be used at any one time.
If it is the former, then it is a bit expensive, since most use more than one backup device and one license for every backup drive is hard to justify. David Dinwiddie Can I purchase more than one license at this price?
Oct 1 at pm Copy Link Like. Michael R. Having just downloaded your demo, but not really tried yet, I have some additional questions, concerning synchronizing of not-connected computers via usb-stick I know, that is no easy task: I wrote a little tool for myself before this widespread internet-accessibility, of course using 1.
If not, can e. What, if the usb-stick is smaller than the required space? Can the first part of the synchronisation be done one day, the second the next, Is there a kind of update-compression? This would decrease the needed space dramatically Probably this is done, to connect the license with a hardware-fingerprint, to avoid the user to store the program on more than one usb-stick.
So what can the user do, if he has bought a larger usb-stick and wants to use your tool on that or even worse, if the usb-stick is defect? Hopefully, he does not have to buy a new license, does he?
Hugo Claros Thanks for the chance to get your software. I mean, i guess you can deactive your license in one usb and active it in another one e. But that's not the case when somebody steals your usb: you can't deactivate the license.
What happens then? If i would need a patch file only, i would even when somebody stoles my key, the data will be useless without the full version of the files. Is something like that in your plans? Bob Hughes I have registered three licences of GoodSync Pro for my desktop and laptop computers already Thanks, Bob. Oct 2 at am Copy Link Like. Robert S: Yes, please contact our support team for this.
Chandrasekhar Reddy: It is the former, however if you are backing up with the same USB drive on multiple desktops, you need not install on the desktops, so in that sense it can be quite affordable. David Dinwiddie: How many licenses are you looking to purchase? If it's more than 2, email me directly at sdavis at siber [dot] com and I can send you a custom link. Also, please note USB drive can also mean 'removable hard drive', so if space is an issue you might want to look into that option.
Compresses sync is not possible yet. You can sync compressed files, but this needs to be done outside of GoodSync. Also, for an incremental sync, this can be done by creating smaller sync 'Jobs' for each volume-hower if you're using one drive that may not be practical. Hugo Claros: As mentioned, we can transfer your license to a new drive. As far as encrypted sync, you can transfer encrypted files and then decrypt them on the more secure desktop if you wish.
Bob Hughes: You may do this within 30 days of your purchase. Please contact support. Glad to hear it's possible to transfer the license to another usb-stick in some cases Having seen some interesting features of the Enterprise-version: Is it possible to upgrade later from professional to the enterprise version?
Siber Systems Michael R: You can pay the price difference at any time within 30 days of purchase. Peter Martin I change computers every 3 years and I have two sets of computers one at office and one at home. I have now four computers two old and two new.
Sometimes I transfer files that I need from the old to the new. Can I use Goodsync2go to backup my files on all four computers. The core feature of Goodsync. You can make Goodsync run a job every time a file is changed, when Goodsync starts, when you logoff, or on a schedule:.
Very handy, and as mentioned, this is the main feature of Goodsync. For some reason people are searching for this. Goodsync is compatible with any common device. Common File System Options These options appear in most network-based file systems.
Secure mode SSL. Do not Check SSL server certificates. On by default If Secure Mode is ON and this checkbox is un-checked then GoodSync will check SSL server certificate: that certificate is on a trust chain that starts with known Certificate Authority, that certificate is not expired, that sever name common name in the certificate is exactly the same as server name you are connecting to.
If this box is checked then none of these checks are performed. Check the box if you are using self-signed certificate or care only about encryption and not about verification of the server identity. UTF-8 file name encoding.
On by default Network protocols are byte protocol, so encoding non-ASCII non-latin characters can be done in several different ways. If checked then use UTF-8 encoding for file and folder names.
If un-checked then use ANSI encoding, language of the encoding being the language of this computer. Connect Via Proxy.
Client Certificate. Off by default If file path is specified, use private certificate from this file to authenticate SSL session. Windows File System Windows only Windows disks mounted directly on this computer available only in Windows. Since no authentication is required and disks are always connected, the folder tree is shown right away clicking Go button is not needed. Use it to designate removable volumes that can be mounted to different disk letters. Use computer specific paths in GoodSync2Go, where the same jobs will run on different computers and you want some jobs to run only on specific computers, not on all computers.
Such devices will also appear in My Computer tab. Note that once you logged in to Share, Windows will cache authentication data. So if authentication data changes on server, you must Logout and then Login to you account on the client to make Windows use new authentication data. Enter UserID and Password if your share is password-protected and you do not want to answer system prompts to enter share credentials.
Windows shares will also be shown under a separate handling, as MacOS has native facilities for discovering and presenting Windows shares. UserID and Password are always required. Presence of virtual top level domain. UserID and Password are usually required and specified in Browse dialog fields. Explicit is the default and recommended mode. In Explicit mode GoodSync negotiates with the server about what encryption to use. In Implicit mode the connection to server is open in SSL mode right away on port without any negotiation.
Active Mode or Passive Mode. By default GoodSync uses Passive FTP mode when connecting, because in this mode no data connections from server to client are required and these connections are not allowed by most firewalls. Check Active Mode box only if Passive mode connection is not allowed by server and if you firewalls allow servers to initiate FTP data connection to the client.
By default GoodSync gets file modification time from file listing. In this listing file modification time will be rounded to the nearest minute or even day and this may create fake changes. This means that you must type the full path to your DAV folder, you cannot type in just server name, click Go and drill down to the DAV folder. This happens because top folder of the HTTP server is usually not DAV enabled and it will not list folders inside it for security reasons.
OAuth2 authentication. So to enter credentials in Browse dialog you should simply click Go button. Amazon then will ask you in your default browser whether you allow GoodSync to access your Cloud Drive. You should approve it and then GoodSync will be able to sync to your Cloud Drive. Amazon S3 Amazon S3 server. S3 Storage Model in GoodSync: S3 does not have a notion of folders and files, they have buckets, keys and values.
Therefore folders and files model has to be translated to buckets, keys and values model and different programs do it in a different way. GoodSync and other S3 clients. While our model is most obvious and rational, folders and files that GoodSync create may be not recognized by other S3 client programs that use different model. Therefore you should create and use folders only with GoodSync and other programs that support the same model.
Host-based Addressing for Buckets: option If checked then use host-based addressing for buckets. Must be checked for buckets hosted in Europe or Japan. Host-based bucket names may contain only lower case latin letters and digits. If unchecked then use URL-based addressing for buckets. S3 hosts S3 used to have one main host: s3. Not anymore. Now Amazon has several 'super-hosts' based on the region, but GoodSync finds out which host to use automatically, by asking main S3 server.
Which means that only the main server appears in the URL, per tradition. No upper case of mixed case bucket names are allowed. Reduced Redundancy ver 9 and up If checked then use bucket with reduced redundancy that is also cheaper. If unchecked then use regular high-redundancy expensive buckets. If unchecked then store files un-encrypted. Access Control empty by default Amazon S3 Access Control Policy, can be one of Canned Access Policies: private default , public-read, public-read-write, authenticated-read.
All uploaded files are uploaded with the specified policy. The Public Key is located on the server and only server administrator can put it there. Private Key may additionally be protected by a password. Enter this password into the Browse dialog or use private key caching program such as Pageant. PuTTY format looks something like this:. UTF-8 encoding is recommended and is the default. See FTP for more details. To enter credentials in Browse dialog you should simply click Go button.
Google then will ask you in your default browser whether you allow GoodSync to access it. You should approve it and then GoodSync will be able to sync with your Google Drive. Native and External docs. However if you edit a document in Google Docs you can do it with Word and Excel documents then this becomes a native GDocs document and you can see it change even if you did not change anything.
This is related to our observation that GDocs never shows to GoodSync the file as they store it, instead they convert file to an external format every time you download it and these conversions may produce slightly different result even if source file is the same. Windows Azure Windows Azure server. Dropbox [Ver 10 only] Dropbox Online storage. Dropbox then will ask you in your default browser whether you allow GoodSync to access it.
You should approve it and then GoodSync will be able to sync with your Dropbox. Answer Yes. You can return to GoodSync now. Backblaze B2 [Ver 10 only] Backblaze B2 online storage. Device should be physically connected to the computer, usually it is plugged into USB port. Device is not required to have a partnership with desktop on which GoodSync runs. So you can sync phone files with more than two desktops. To sync with the phone that has no "relationship" with your desktop: when ActiveSync tells you to create a new relationship upon connecting your phone to the desktop, select Guest Relationship or just press Cancel.
OneFile [Ver 10 only] Tree of folders and files stored in one file, with compression and encryption. Here D: test DirFileA. File is initially read, decrypted, uncompressed. All file operations are performed in memory. When connection closes, file is compressed, encrypted, written to disk. Backup Left to Right 1-way Propagate changes only from the Left sync folder to the Right sync folder. Backup Right to Left 1-way Propagate changes only from the Right sync folder to the Left sync folder.
Propagate Deletions checked by default If checked, then deletion made by user on one side of the job is propagated to the other side. If not checked, then deletions are not propagated, only changed files are propagated. This modifier applies only to 1-way jobs. If not checked, then error message will be shown on Analyze if sync folders are not present.
Only the most recent version of the file the one just before the current version is retained. Cleanup occurs immediately after Sync. Timestamp is added to file name before its extension, so that multiple versions of the file can be saved.
Directory structure is preserved. Cleanup occurs immediately after Sync, every days. Total Seconds for Reconnect Attempts by default Total seconds allowed for Reconnect attempts, when file system disconnects or returns connection errors. Successful file operation after Reconnect causes the reconnect counter to be reset. If file operation fails after this many seconds of retries, the file system is declared disconnected and the entire job fails.
Run parallel Threads in Sync No by default If checked then run main pass of Sync in this many parallel threads. Using this option speeds up file transfer for remote servers that have high latency.
It does not increase speed, if your connection bandwidth is used up by a single-thread sync. If empty or 1 then run sync in one sequential thread. When average file copy speed in Sync exceeds the specified threshold, GoodSync suspends sleeps jobs for 1 second until the effective average speed falls below the limit. Separate Download and Upload limits are provided.
If Download limit is zero, then it is assumed to be the same as Upload limit. Display Balloon messages This option controls whether and when balloon system tray messages are displayed. Never Do not display balloon messages. Filters tab Exclude empty by default Files and folders that match any line on this list, will be excluded from synchronization. Details are provided in the Exclude Filters Section.
Include empty by default If not empty then only files and folders whose names match one of the lines of this Include list and do not match any lines of the Exclude list, are included in synchronization.
Details are provided in the Include Filters Section. It is recommended for the set of inclusions and exclusions to be the same for all jobs that sync with one particular folder.
Keeping them different is possible but it is likely to cause confusion as some jobs will not sync files that other jobs would sync. Exclude Empty Folders un-checked by default If checked then Exclude folders that are empty or that contain only empty folders. Folder are considered empty if they contain no files or if they contain only files that were excluded by Filters. If a trigger is checked then Analyze and Sync for this Job will run when trigger condition is satisfied.
On File Change Analyze and Sync this job when any file changes in left or right sync folder or its sub-folder. Note that if you had several changes including changes performed by this or other sync jobs , the delay countdown will start with the last change that was detected. We recommend to set it to at least seconds 2 minutes , so that GoodSync does not start syncing until files were stable for at least 2 minutes.
On Folders Connect Analyze and Sync this job when both folders of the job become connected, after they were previously disconnected.
GoodSync checks every 3 minutes for status of left and right folders for a job with this option. You can also specify delay in seconds: when GoodSync starts, it will wait this many seconds before starting this job. Does not work in Unattended mode, as GoodSync Runner always runs. Note that Windows may try to kill GoodSync on Logoff. Normally Windows sees that GoodSync is performing file operations and responds to messages and it would let GoodSync finish.
However this cannot be guaranteed. Does not work in Unattended mode, as GoodSync Runner runs outside of user space. Empty time unit value means that this time unit is not fixed in the schedule.
A list of values or stepped value ranges can be specified for each time unit, separated by comma. Note that setting is usually disabled on notebooks. So the job will auto-start and run even when you are logged off. If GoodSync GUI is running, it will report on status of Unattended job, but you will not see sync tree, nor will you be able to change sync direction. Unusually high number of changed files indicates that something may be wrong and manual intervention is required.
This option is ignored for 1-way jobs. Option: Automatically Resolve Conflicts When job is about to be Synced automatically, use this option to automatically resolve conflicts:. Left to Right Resolve to Left to Right propagation. Right to Left Resolve to Right to Left propagation. Newer File Wins File with the most recent modification date wins.
Stop Sync Stop Sync when Conflict is detected. Syncovery Syncovery is a synchronization and backup software helping you keep all your important documents safe no matter what happens to your machine.
How did we rate best Mac synchronization software? Key factors we considered while choosing best macOS synchronization software: Functionality. When deciding on the very best app to support data transfer you need to take functionality into consideration. Mac OS X synchronization software can help smoothen a process that is complicated enough. For that you will also need a wide choice of transfer settings to go along.
OS support. Since macOS is constantly updated you will need an app that stays up to date with these updates and offers the best service.
App lifecycle. In order to take a good Mac sync software and turn it into the best possible tool you need constant improvements. The developers need to provide updates and new version so that the app stays up to date. Online cloud services for synchronization of Mac The 3 online cloud sync services discussed here are considered the best among numerous cloud sync services.
Conclusion : All in all, cloud services are a useful choice for many people. The frequently asked questions about synchronization. Do I really need to sync data on Mac? Well, it is up to you to decide, but we recommend you do. Having your important data synced on all devices that you use, makes your digital life easier. Having new contacts and calendar events updated everywhere as soon as you add them on a single device is extremely convenient to say the least.
With a software like SyncMate you only need to connect and set up various devices once and the app will take over from there. Is my data safe when syncing? It should be! Choose the app wisely and only use trustworthy developers. SyncMate cares about your data safety and syncs data directly between your Mac and other devices or online storages omitting any third parties. Data synchronization vs data transfer.
Is there a difference? Yes, there is! Transferring data is basically taking a piece of it and moving from one place to another. You can move your data between computers, mobile devices, online storages, etc. Synchronizing data is different. Synchronization is when a piece of data is equally updated on both sides of sync process, and as a result you are getting the latest version of it on both of your devices as soon as you made changes.
SyncMate is your top choice, is it the best? Take a look at its key features: SyncMate is powered by its own sync service and doesn't rely on any other frameworks. Would it do away with setting the shares? I still could not connect from the laptop without a second licence, or would I, then? Regards Emil. Feb 20 at pm Copy Link Like. Siber Systems Hi Emil, GoodSync Connect allows users to connect two computers directly, in a peer-to-peer style, without using intermediate servers that store files.
Siber Systems Hi VLM, Thank you for letting us know your confusion, it will help us to better inform our customers at check out in the future.
GoodSync2Go runs from the portable device itself, not on the host computer. Therefore you can install and run GoodSync2Go even when you don't have administrator rights or installing software is prohibited on the host computer. I read it but still can't quite understand it. From the statement: "setup a GoodSync Connect account, install GoodSync 9 on each computer you want to sync, and these computers will be able to talk to each other and perform peer-to-peer synchronization.
Can you, please, just answer that with a Yes or No? And a second question: Do I have to be internet-connected to set up the Connect account or is it set locally on the machine? Siber Systems Hi Emil, Thank you for your questions. Yes- that is correct, you will need to purchase another license to access GS Connect on another computer.
Yes, in order to set up a GoodSync connect account you do have to be connected to the Internet. VLM Michelle, regarding your last comment to Emil: "Yes, in order to set up a GoodSync connect account you do have to be connected to the Internet," is this because we are using an IP address to establish the direct, P2P connection?
Decided to avoid losing out on another great BDJ discount and within 15 minutes had everything up and running and making my life a LOT easier. For the life of me I cannot understand why i took this long to give GoodSync a try. Very satisfied. Meets my needs better than any other sync program I've tried. Bjondc I continue to be confused. Is there any way that the program can be used with only one license?
You say you need to be on-line to set up the "connect" account -- but not to do the syncing? I think this is too complicated for me! For HOME use marketing it should be somewhat clearer! Will that be happening? Also are channels to amazon etc using SSL? Nigel Blumenthal Blair, as a satisfied user of GoodSync v8, I'll try to explain a bit: I think the new capabilities are a little confusing for you.
If you have two or more computers at your house, and they are on an internal network, whether or not you are connected to the internet, you only need one licence for the machine on which you're running GoodSync. You can sync between two computers at one time, in either direction, ie if GS is installed on Machine A, and you have files on that machine and Machine B and Machine C, you install GS on Machine A and sync its files with those on Machine B, and then as a separate job you can sync its files with those on Machine C.
In both cases you can choose which files to sync, or to ignore at your choice. I find it very useful for email files, work files, client information, and especially photos.
Unfortunately I bought mine just before the cutoff date for the free upgrade, so I'll have to pay for mine, but it's a great product. Hope this helps. Unfortunately, when Explorer finds something it doesn't like can't copy, permissions etc. GS does away with all that; if it can't copy a file it just skips over it and reports at the end of the job. No more half-done copying jobs! From my questions, you can see that v9 has me a bit confused, too! But this is a great product. I particularly like the ability to sync in both directions.
If you have a file in both locations, and if BOTH locations have been updated since the last sync, GoodSync tells you this and enables you to tell it what to do for that file, specifically. Also, you can right-click and open the file MS Office and some others , delete the file on one side manually, and do various other actions. As far as I know, you can set up an unlimited number of jobs, some one-directional true backups , some two-directional syncs , and then establish a schedule, selection filters, and more for each job independently.
Each job appears in the UI in its own tab, each job has its own properties, etc. GoodSync keeps track of manual changes made in the file system. For example, if you cut a file, several files, or an entire directory that is incorporated in a sync or backup job, GoodSync will record both the cut and the new placement in the UI.
And much more. The UI is surprisingly clear, given all the functionality. I really do wholeheartedly recommend this product. I just am trying to better understand the new v9 features, that's all. I'm guessing that Michelle is asleep at this point, given that she probably lives in the USA eastern time zone, where it's approaching 11 PM. One more thing I've never abused this kindness, of course I wouldn't If you are looking for a product to make disk images, this product won't do that, to the best of my knowledge.
This product does the latter very, very well. Just a point of clarification. Techtoysavvy bought 2 more. Feb 21 at am Copy Link Like. Jakub Chodorowicz Does GoodSync feature file versioning - saving previous versions of files? Siber Systems Prasad, Thank you! I hope that you enjoy your GoodSync licenses. Siber Systems Thank you Nico! We are happy to be offering this deal for another day! Now you can select multiple folders to sync not just one , in one job. Before, in ver 8, it had to be achieved with Filters.
Also, with all new block-level sync, GoodSync is faster than ever before. A normal file transfer would send the entire file, even if only small parts of the file have changed. With block-level transfers, only the parts of a file are transferred that differ. We are so happy that you are satisfied with GS9 so far. Michelle SiberSystems.
We are happy that GoodSync helps make your life easier and gives you peace of mind. Client software of my online backup provider changes the time stamp of files on uploading.
When I try to synchronize via webdav by GoodSync, all files is shown as changed because of the time stamp. I wanted to compare by content, so I set "compare by MD5", but there wasn't any option to disable time stamp comparing. Total lack of zip compress and encrypt not by NTFS support is a painful drawback as well. If checked, then GoodSync saves a file just before it rewrites or deletes this file.
Timestamp is added to file name before its extension, so that multiple versions of the file can be saved. Directory structure is preserved. Siber Systems Hi Zsolt, Thank you for your question. We do not have that capability. DroidLuvr I guess I'm still confused about licenses.
I use RoboForm Pro Everywhere, and their tech support has suggested GoodSync Pro to integrate and save my data profiles to my network as well as to the RoboForm online servers Feb 21 at pm Copy Link Like.
R R I still don't understand regarding how many licenses I need. I have two computers. I assume that GS needs to be installed on each. If so, do I need two licenses? Or what. Siber Systems Hi everyone, if computers are connected in one local network you can sync files between them including external HDs using shared folders when GoodSync is installed on one of the computers. Note, that synchronization could be running only from one computer where GoodSync is installed.
If you want to run sync from any computer you have to either install GoodSync on each computer 5 licenses or use GoodSync2Go installed on any portable drive 1 GoodSync2Go license. If you want to sync files over the Internet using GoodSync Connect you need a license for each computer with which you want to sync. Siber Systems For example, You can sync files between two computers when GoodSync is installed on one computer if computers are connected in local network.
If computers are not connected in a local network then you can sync files between them using GoodSync Connect account via the Internet. If the computers are not connected in a local network then you would need a GS license for each computer that you wish to sync using GS Connect.
DroidLuvr Thank you, Michelle. The second method will be through three licenses of GoodSync2Go 9, you will need to set up a job on each of these devices to synchronize X Folder with Y Folder. The third will utilize five licenses of GoodSync 9 Desktop and will need to be set up similarly to method two.
DroidLuvr Thanks, Michelle I have been very happy with RoboForm and am looking forward to trying GoodSync. As I did have a couple of problems with the trial version a while back, I think I will start with a couple of licenses while they are on such a good sale, and then go from there, according to my importance of PC backups!
John Cotter I am very appreciative of all the questions and answers in the forgoing. I will buy the product but am wondering if the GS2GO is a better option because of iits portability. Does anyone use it? I ended up using on my desktop and not really using the portability.
So with the upgrade I decided to get the desktop version. J C Thanks bob for yr feedback. I got onto site and bought 2 licenses for GS9 anyway. In terms of convenience, very inexpensive. Now I have all the convenience and flexibility to sync my files which until I saw this BDJ offer, was just so time consuming and difficult. Thanks guys, your comments appreciated and thanks Siber Systems for a great offer. VLM Michelle, Great day, great responses! Just to document, I placed an order yesterday for 2 desktop licenses, then went back today to place another order for 2 desktop and 1 GS2Go license.
But your server would not let me place the second order, presumably because I'm paying by MO and the first order is still pending in your system. I wrote to support many hours ago ticket , order but received no reply. I would appreciate your help resolving this.
VLM Michelle, Great day, great responses Siber Systems VLM, I am looking in to your support ticket now, sometimes it can take a day or two for support to respond.

Siber Systems A S, We have not planned a GS2G0 promotion here on Bits yet, but if you are upgrading or buying additional licenses you will receive a discount at checkout on our Web site.

Rick Wallace Been using this for about 5 years, a favorite! It means you need a minimum of 2 licenses! David Gilmour Re lemonade soda, "Yes, you need a license for each computer you are syncing. I use Goodsync to sync certain folders between my desktop Windows PC and my Linux file server, and it works beautifully, running on the Windows side only.
Only if you want to take advantage certain advanced features like BitTorrent-like "block level synchronization syncs" do you need GS running as client and server, and a licensed copy on both Windows machines. GS has been an important and dependable part of my automated file archiving and backup routine since version 5.
You can sync a Mac and a PC if you have the appropriate software on each machine. Thank you, Michelle. Siber Systems Aladdin T, This means that if we create a new version such as GoodSync Version 10 then you will have to pay for the upgrade. We offer free updates within a version though, so all of the updates we make in V9 are completely free to those who purchase V9. We just released V9 earlier this year, so upgrading to a major version is not something that you will have to worry about anytime soon.
We offer discounts on major version upgrades as well, for future reference. Siber Systems w wood and lemonade soda, What David Gilmour said is correct. You only need one license per computer in which GoodSync is running. If you sync one computer to another and they are connected via a local area network, then you only need one license and run GoodSync from one computer.
If you are trying to sync GoodSync from two non-connected computers, you can sync via GoodSync connect, which does require GoodSync be running on both computers, and therefore would require two licenses.
I was just about to buy two licenses so I could sync while travelling to my home fileserver. I do dislike that: it's the same software, but at x the price! Lost sale! Doug Atkinson I've used GoodSync for several years and really like it.
I have several backup hard drives for videos, music files, and so forth, and use GoodSync to backup files from my laptop, and then to synchronize the backup hard-drives with each other. That way, if one HD fails, I still have a copy. I am excited about the new developments in v9.
As an owner of v8, how much will it cost me to upgrade to v9? Thank you in advance for your time and trouble. Siber Systems Herman, When did you purchase V8? If you purchased prior to Nov 1, , this deal on Bits du Jour is better than upgrading your license from our web site! Hope this helps : Thank you, Michelle. We are so happy you love the software. Siber Systems lemonade soda, Yes, our Enterprise server license is a different price and not part of this special promotion.

I will look in to this. Did something go wrong? I downloaded and installed 9 but it shows up as trial and, when I attempted to activate: Activation failed FAILED: Our records indicate that you have only GoodSync 8 licenses in the order you specified, but you are trying to activate GoodSync 9, which requires a separate license.
Please purchase GoodSync Desktop 9 for Windows license. Thank you very much in advance for your time and trouble. I will look it up and see what is going on. Siber Systems Steve, Yes it does. Just go to JobOptionsGeneral. You can tell GS to delete a file after a certain number of days, etc. It also provides real time monitoring.
