Too Many Computers Dept.

December 3rd, 2005 · Posted in Technical, Applications ·

I have four computers that I have to keep certain files synchronized on. I actually have more than four computers when you include my servers, but my primary workhorses include two desktops and two laptops. There are some files that I work on all the time, from any location I happen to be in, and I always want my files to stay up to date. Enter Allway Sync.

Allway Sync is a top-notch package that is easy to install and easy to use. I use it with a memory stick and began by copying the four folders in my documents that I wanted to keep synchronized to the memory stick from my primary work computer. I then installed a copy of Allway Sync on each of the four computers. From then on, I routinely sync when I am moving from one computer to the next and sync on that one when I start working. That way whatever computer I am working on is completely up to date before I start working. When I am ready to move on to the next computer, I sync it to the memory stick, grab the stick and move on to the next computer. When I sit down at that one to do some work, the first thing I do is sync again. This process has flawlessly and painlessly kept all of my four computers in sync. It’s a great software idea and is excellently implemented. Kudos.
