CNET Editors' review
Synchronizing files and folders can be an excruciating process for people who need to transfer many files from one place to another within their computers. Synchredible offers an alternative to spending countless minutes copying, clicking, and dragging files into new locations, and it has a great deal of success.
This free download look a little intimidating at first with its very sparse display, but it's easily mastered. Select two files or folders from the file tree drop-down and you are on your way. Synchredible keeps you on pace by telling you where you are in the seven-step process at every screen. After selecting the information, and choosing in which direction it will flow, you can organize a filter, set a scheduler, and more. These steps are intuitive and make sense right away. The most important step is the final one, however, because it gives users the opportunity to sync only unique files, which prevents duplicates from being created.
From there, the files trade information. Users are given a readout of how many files transferred, any warnings, and how long the process took.
Overall, Synchredible is a fantastic product that works smoothly. The only rough patch came when we attempted to browse the Help menu and nothing happened. For users who don't find Synchredible intuitive, this could be a problem. However, we had such a smooth run synchronizing our files that we still highly recommend this freeware.

"Unusable "Free" mode is nagware"
Version: Synchredible 3.300
Pros
Syncs OK but doesnt do anything out of the ordinary
Cons
After a couple of days I started getting a huge popup window saying for private use only and in order to use it for commercial purposes order the pro version, implying that I was using it illegally. This comes up several times in the space of about 15 minutes and needs a mouse click to clear it so the app is completely useless as an unobtrusive sync app running in the background.
Im not sure if this nag is triggered by the amount/size of files synced (Im syncing folders with about 80gb of videos and photos) or if everyone gets it regardless, but this software plainly isn't as advertised, Im a private user and nowhere does it say that private use is limited or you'll be hounded by obtrusive nag screens until you buy the pro version (or uninstall it like I'll be doing).Summary
Useless in "free" mode. Avoid
