Editor's Review
When it comes to transferring files, there are a number of options available to PC users. Laplink PCSync 5 is a powerful file transfer application that values compatibility highly. With support for Windows 2000, XP, Vista, and full Windows 7 support, PCSync 5 lets users transfer their data across networked PCs and to remote storage.
Designed to allow home and business users to backup and share important files, Laplink PCSync 5 is an ultra-simple Windows file transfer application. With support for wired and wireless home networks, users can easily backup their data to locally networked PCs, remote storage such as external hard drives and flash memory, and even merge files and folders across a network.
PCSync 5's 'SmartXChange' synchronization feature is perfect for minimizing the work associated with data backup and remote storage. While running as a background application, PCSync 5 monitors changes to folders, drives, and data, and automatically updates them across networked PCs and remote storage. From filename changes to deletion, PCSync mirrors changes across multiple PCs.
One major concern for networks is data transfer, particularly high-volume data transfer and the performance decreases that can come with it. PCSync 5 minimizes the effect of network data transfer by only transferring the updated sections of synchronized files. This 'SpeedSync' feature dramatically improves transfer speed and minimizes network requirements.
With support for a wide range of PC operating systems, Laplink PCSync 5 is ideal for users looking to transfer and synchronize their files between a previous home computer and its replacement. PCSync 5 performs well on Windows 7, with few reported compatibility issues between operating system versions and different service packs.
While advanced users will likely be able to accomplish simple file transfers using Windows' built-in networking tools, PCSync 5 provides a level of automation and simplicity that's difficult to turn down. For casual PC users, high-volume office networks, and frequently updated network files, PCSync is by far the most simple networking option.
