Precise File Syncing With PCsync 6.0

LapLink’s PCsync version 6.0 lets you synchronize folders and individual files on multiple computers automatically, manually, or in a combo of the two. You can synchronize via a network, a Laplink USB cable, or a Windows Easy Transfer cable. it also lets you synchronize to external hard drives and USB drives, so you can use it as a backup program as well.

Version 6.0 works with Macs and with Windows Xp, Server 2003, Vista, and 7 PCs. Even though it’s a 32-bit app, it is compatible with 32-bit and 64-bit Windows versions.

PCsync faces stiff competition from two free apps, SugarSync and Microsof’s Windows Live Sync, but neither offers PCsync 6.0’s level of fine-grained control over files and folders.
