"Works great but nag screens highly annoying"
Version: Synchredible 3.301
Pros
Fast, full featured, functional
Cons
Nag screens pop up in the middle of jobs and make you press a button to proceed. Very irritating.
Summary
I was reluctant to rate this product this low, as the backup functions work great. But the nag screens that pop up and make you click a button to proceed are extremely annoying. This makes this product unsuitable for automated unattended backups. If they didn't market this as "free" it would be a different matter. But because of the nag screens it's not really free. I gave this up because I didn't like the nag screens. If you're looking for a backup program that has as many or more features, consider Cobian which I am now using. Doesn't have a great interface but it offers a ton of options and is truly 100% free.

"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

"Fast but Not free"
Version: Synchredible 1.3.1
Pros
It is superfast compared with goodsync (but goodsync is unbearably slow).
Cons
They say it is free but the keep constantly annoying you with pop-ups for the pro version to eliminate the pop-up. I mean it shows up seeveral times a day with no easy Alt-w or anything to close it).
If they had said so before installing programming and using it I would ***** if I wanted it or not. Now I'm uninstalling and trying Allway Sync free (with limitations stated and buy it if is good. It includes immediate sync which Synchredible doesn't) -
"Good product, does the job with minimal maintenance"
Version: Synchredible 3.102
Pros
Fast, efficient, easy to install, once set up requires almost no thinking
Cons
A little hard to set up the files you want to back up the first time
Summary
I like the program and recommend it

"Does not work"
Version: Synchredible 3.006
Pros
Easy User Interface
Cons
Doesn't actually work. I pointed this at a folder as source, and another as destination, and let it run several times. It never added source folders that were not present in the destination. That's sort of the point, isn't it?
Summary
Does not do the basic job it's intended for. This is on Win 7.

"Simple & Easy"
Version: Synchredible 3.006
Pros
I am using Standard (Freeware) version last 1 year on Windows XP SP2 System. The product is amazing and easy to use! I am planning to buy professional version soon after checking if it can backup Microsoft Office Data, Upload data to Internet Server.
Cons
I did not find any... it simply good product!

"Excellent!"
Version: Synchredible 3.002
Pros
Backups my desktop into an external drive, perfect.
Cons
Pop up asking for you to get the payed version. It is the least thing they can do for this very good software.
Summary
I used it to backup my pc hard drive into an external drive. I chose the pc to be the master and the external to be the slave. WHATEVER change i did in the master was reflected in the slave (deleting, renaming, modifying files or folders). All deleted files went to recycle bin. Easy to use, simple, FREE, and effective. Well done.
