TopTenREVIEWS - Gold Award - Awarded for excellence in design, useability and feature set
By David Aamodt

Thanks to its intuitive user interface, reliability and integration with the latest in mobile technology, Syncables stands out among some stiff competition. Syncables will automate syncs between two or more computers and backup your data to ensure that it’s safe. Additionally, Syncables allows you to take your data with you wherever you go and access it on any computer via a removable storage device. Given its support for smartphones, security features and email clients like Outlook, Syncables was a natural fit for our “TopTenREVIEWS Gold Award" in the category of sync software.

In our tests, Syncables does exactly what it claims to—allows you to access the data from one computer on any other computer. Moreover, Syncables brings your desktop wallpaper and layout with you too, making you feel at home on any netbook, laptop or PC. Every time you plug a storage device with Syncables present, it automatically exports files from your primary computer to any other computer you use. When you finish up, Syncables saves any changes back to your external storage device. In this way, work or school projects, music, movies and photos can be edited and saved without having to manually transfer and overwrite data. While hauling an external storage device around can be a bit of hassle, you’re probably already carrying a smartphone in your pocket. Syncables is configured to take advantage of the memory onboard your iPod, iPhone or BlackBerry.

In addition to documents, spreadsheets, emails and images, Syncables synched some of the behind-the-scenes files that make surfing the net easier. The fact that Syncables brings your cookies and browser favorites to any computer you connect it to means that when you get on sites you frequently visit you won’t have to reload everything from scratch—this is particularly useful on dial-up or slow connections.

Syncables’ network synchronization options are ideal for media enthusiasts. Any computers on a network with Syncables installed can stream media, transfer files or automate syncs. Syncables has sharing options for network sharing and synchronization—privacy controls allow you to share what you want with who you want.

Syncables features excellent support for email to ensure that you’re in contact with the world no matter what computer you’re using. Syncables allows you to mobilize your inbox and address book onto a storage device for use with Outlook, Thunderbird and Lotus Notes. Like Dmailer Sync, Syncables includes a built-in email client that allows you to access Outlook, Thunderbird or another supported email schema, regardless of which of them is installed on the computer you’re using.

Mac or Linux users will be pleased to learn that Syncables runs on OS X 10 and is equipped for Ubuntu. Users working across platforms will want to take a look at Syncables Premium—it costs only ten dollars more and allows you to sync files between PC, Mac and Linux-based systems.
