Comments and Reviews

   
 Post comment/review
Comment summary: GoodSync is praised for its reliable synchronization, user-friendly interface, and performance, but users criticize its expensive subscription model and cumbersome updates. The transition to an annual license in version 11 and limitations of the free version are notable downsides. While GoodSync is effective for specific tasks, issues like syncing limitations and high server version costs prompt some users to seek alternatives.

I agree with Floria20. GoodSync is an excellent tool but the provided features are very expensive compared to the competitors, for example, Syncthing and Gs Richcopy 360, both have the same features at a cheap price. finally, I would say GoodSync has its fan who targets to hear about the new pricing policy.

I was using Goodsync since v8. The recent change in v11 pretty much make me to look for new alternative. V11 had changed to annual subscription, meaning that you will have to pay yearly. I will stay at v10 and then move to new alternative when I find the right choice.

Not unless they change back to a perceptual license on major version, not going back anymore.

It is useful if you don't have specific needs. It is a little difficult to configure, if you are not careful you can lose your files. When synchronizing hidden or system files, it does not maintain their properties even though it is supposed to have that option. It only offers an annual subscription instead of a lifetime purchase.

I haven’t tested it, but the free version is limited to 100 files, and the paid version is only available as a one year subscription model for about 20 €/$. No lifetime license, as it seems. No, thanks.

Used it for a long time, but then they rolled out the annual subscription and I can't go back to a version that supports the flat license. Time to switch to something else.

Honestly, it's a bit garbage. 1. I would have lost a week's worth of work if it wasn't for Google Drive keeping old versions. You set GS to AUTOMATICALLY sync upon file change and sure - it detects the change. But it DOESNT COPY THE FILES! What?! 2. Greedy developer: hasn't fixed the problems (like that one) in the OLDER VERSION you already PAID for, then brings out a NEW version you have to pay for AGAIN. Note: I have a FULLY PAID VERSION OF 8.9.9.9. I just don't feel confident in this software. PS If I can't set it up properly (despite being able to use dozens of other apps), it's partly the devs fault for not making it simple/obvious enough.
