Product Description

  • Everyone's computer is a bit different from the rest; those differences can add up to software failure. Users who've been driven to the edge of insanity by the refusal of their personal digital assistants (PDAs) to synchronize properly with their desktops should find relief with Pumatech's Intellisync 4.0.

    Fully compatible with Microsoft Outlook 2000--as well as Lotus Notes and Organizer, Novell GroupWise, Symantec ACT!, and other information managers--Intellisync 4.0 takes a bit more thought and care to set up than built-in synch programs, but it rewards most users with flawless data transfers. The customization options are impressive, and allow users greater flexibility to decide which data to move where.

    Users who are happy with their built-in synch programs probably won't find Intellisync 4.0 worth the price--the customization feature, while nice, just isn't as valuable as the range of compatible software and improved transfer performance. But users who have a nagging problem that keeps them from using either their PDAs or personal information managers (PIMs) to their fullest (for example, incomplete contact-information transfer or multiple PIMs) will praise it for turning their frustration into joy. Life's too short to hassle with uncommunicative machines. --Rob Lightner

    Pros:

    • Customizable
    • Integrated with Outlook 2000
    Cons:
    • Best for users who suffer from incompatibility issues
    • Few unique features
