2009-Jul-15 : Derman Enterprises announces version 1.32 of Sync'Em

Sync'Em - the sync hub for Macs that's designed to multi-sync Microsoft Exchange, Google and Apple contact and calendar information.

Sync'Em is unique in its ability to multi-sync -- sync multiple configurations, each involving multiple information sources with each syncing bidirectionally or unidirectionally. Sync'Em has its own full-featured sync engine that syncs non-Apple sources directly, enabling it to sync Exchange-to-Exchange, Exchange-to-Google and Google-to-Google and perform multi-source conflict resolution in one interaction.

Changes to Sync'Em since version 1.31:

- adds a Meeting Agent to check Exchange for meeting invites and responses and respond directly via Exchange -- this is very important if you work within an Exchange-based environment

* with this addition, it's now possible to use iCal and be fully compliant with the Exchange-based workflow -- Exchange-based invites and responses will be handled directly via Exchange so all the normal Exchange-based features will work on the Exchange server (i.e., the attendee tracking, Free/Busy calendar, etc. will all be updated on the Exchange server)

- adds a "Mark Messages as Reviewed" entry to the Sync'Em menu extra

- fixes two obscure issues that could prevent a changed item from being sync'd

- fixes a problem where the Sync'Em Engine could become unable to be started without a manual repair effort

- works around an iCal bug where recurring events can have a bogus recurrence range

- works around a problem where Google would treat a space-filled field (allowed by Address Book) as an empty field and reject the item

- works around a bogus iCal behavior for declined invites

- now handles the (serious User-created) error where localhost is no long mapped to 127.0.0.1

- enhances the meaning and/or advice sections for certain error messages

- ensures there's a blank line preceeding a [SyncEm Data] entry

Today Sync'Em syncs Exchange, Google/Gmail and/or Address Book contacts and Exchange and/or iCal calendar events. We're currently updating Sync'Em to sync Google calendar events, after which we'll add multiple Mac-to-Mac syncing that syncs pre-sync'd information, for maximum efficiency. See http://www.syncem.com/SyncEm-Product-Roadmap for more information.

Sync'Em can be downloaded via http://www.syncem.com/SyncEm-Download and requires Mac OS X 10.4 or 10.5. 15-day 2-Mac full-featured Trial licenses are free and all version 1.x updates are free to registered owners.
