AweSync for Windows

User Reviews

• Well done application

  smaticsOctober 31, 2013

  Pros

  Works where alternative fail, attractive interface, lots of options for setup

  Cons

  Evaluation version adds spam to each event it syncs and I don't remember seeing a warning about that. Is kind of pricey. Ultimate con is if you are forced to use Lotus Notes, which is in my opinion, quite possibly the worst software ever written.

• Very convenient way to keep calendars synchronized

  tlhazeOctober 28, 2013

  Pros

  - Once configured, no further manual intervention required to cause synchronization to occur (I've used solutions before where you had to attach the phone via USB to your computer to have the contents synchronized). - I've used Android phones for the past 4 years and this product does a great job keeping my calendars separated yet shown together in Google calendars. But I just recently purchased a Windows 8 phone which works great and I was afraid that I would lose the ability to see my Notes and Google calendars, but Windows shows the Google calendars in their phone calendar view :-) awesome!

  Cons

  This isn't actually a con, but changes to calendar entries are not reflected immediately; they are handled the next time items are synchronized. I have it configured to synchronize every hour which is usually frequent enough, but it would be nice to cause synchronization to occur based on a calendar add/delete events instead of waiting for an hour to re-synch the calendars.

• Solid program keeps notes data synced with Google Cal.

  datawiredMarch 5, 2013

  Pros

  AweSync provides a very secure way to keep all your confidential appointments, calender entries, contacts all up to date by syncing Lotus Notes with Google Calender which anyone can utilize on almost any mobile device or PC. The developers stay on top and actually listen to users suggestions and take feedback extremely serious. Very stable!

  Cons

  It is hard to suggest any Cons about this product. The only thing, and this is speculation is the history / log window holds the data and again I speculate this may take up memory when not needed. That is the only thing I can think of and I may be wrong.

  Summary

  AweSync started as a small tool and I remember all the way back to beta testing as I ran across this tool in search for exactly what it does. What was small has grown to be used to tens of thousands daily!! This is my top pick over any other product to sync my notes data to Google! Try it out!!! You'll like it. *I am in no way affiliated with the developers or know any of them on any basis - this is strictly my opinion about their product.

• A lifesaver. Brings Notes into the modern world

  RichG NYOctober 12, 2012

  Pros

  It works as advertised Easy to use Inexpensive Easy to install & configure

  Cons

  I use Notes :(

  Summary

  A must have if you use Lotus Notes. A great little app that syncronizes your Notes Calendar with Google Calendar making it available everywhere, including your Android phone & tablet. A real life saver when I'm out of the office with my VPN'd laptop or my 20th Century Blackberry.

• Deliveres as promise

• It Works with no issues!

  dgkallday1February 15, 2012

  Pros

  This things works like a charm. I have to use Lotusnotes at work but we use google calendar for all of our house calendars. This thing syncs them with no issues. I really like the fact that it just works in the background and has a sync schedule that you can modify for update frequency. The guided installation is great as well. If you do have a problem, customer support emails you back in a day or less. My email was answered by the next morning.

  Cons

  Have not had any issues yet. Used for a couple of months.

• I give it 4 stars.

  clwhitaker1January 27, 2012

  Pros

  I like the ability to see my work calendar in lotus notes on my iphone.

  Cons

  The download through cnet is a real pain in the rear. I want to simply update AweSyn without seeing all of the other programs and going through a hassle. It is never simple to download the update. I frequently think it is not worth the effort

• Works very well.

  two_nJanuary 27, 2012

  Pros

  I've been using AweSync since I bought my WP7 Samsung Focus and love it. No problems syncing my LN & Google calendars. I don't sync mail or tasks, so I can't comment on those.

  Cons

  A little slow, but worth the wait.

• Major shortcomings when syncing LN "ToDo" and "Journal"

  jstodaroJanuary 2, 2012

  Pros

  AweSync 4.11 does a good job of syncing the LN (Lotus Notes 8.5) and Google "calendars" and "contacts", as would be expected.

  Cons

  However, when is comes to syncing the LN "ToDo" and Google "Tasks", or the LN "Journal" and Google "Documents", there indeed appears to be some serious shortcomings, for example: (1) Lotus Notes "ToDo" entries are getting TRUNCATED at the 8K mark (NOTE: I have opened a bug report/service request to have this artificial LIMITATION either 'removed' or 'externalzed' as just another setting.) (2) Lotus Notes "Journal" documents (multi-line) are ending-up in Google as a single-line Document..just one single continuous string of characters (NOTE: Apparently this is a known problem, which has yet to be resolved, hopefully.)

  Summary

  In my opinion I think AweSync (currently v4.11) has the potential of becoming 'the ultimate' in Lotus Notes/Google sync solutions; however, some of the core functionality issues will first need to be resolved, which will be soon, hopefully.<br /><br /><span class='notifyMsg'> Updated </span>on Jan 6, 2012<p/>KUDOS! to AweSync customer service / product support! - my original rating: 2+ stars. - my revised rating: 4+ stars!!! WOW! the AweSync development team is amazingly responsive! - my issue with "Journal" syncing has been resolved! - my issue with "ToDo" syncing is currently being worked on! Thank you AweSync for such a 'winner' of a product and the 'amazingly' responsive support! Keep up the great work!!! -Joe T
