One of our first SyncMate’s beta testers Björn König tells us how he uses SyncMate and what for

industry: personal computer usage

Personal Background: In the past Björn König has studied media technologies. Right now Björn is working as an engineer for one of Germany’s biggest broadcast companies.

Victoria Veligodsky: What challenges made you search for this kind of software?

Björn König: I was in search for a software syncing Apple’s Address Book and iCal with my WM6 mobile phone (Asus P750). There are not many solutions available and SyncMate was and is free to use. That was a huge plus. So I gave it a try.

Victoria Veligodsky: How did get to know about SyncMate by Eltima Software?

Björn König: After searching the Internet for quite a while I came across several hints in forums and webpages. I took some time until I found your SyncMate. I’m not sure but I think I also read about SyncMate in my favorite computer magazine.

Victoria Veligodsky: Did you try other products for the same task before choosing SyncMate? Why did you prefer our product?

Björn König: Yes, I have tried several other methods of syncing my mobile phone. One synchronization tool I found did not work out for me. It was not able to exchange data with my Mac. Also Active Sync for Windows caused more trouble than actually doing its job. So I tried some beta versions and release candidates of SyncMate and it worked perfectly for me.

Victoria Veligodsky: Please, describe how you are using our product now.

Björn König: Right now I only use the basic features for syncing the calendar and Address Book. But as a beta tester I also checked out the expert functions which are pretty cool, too. They save some time exchanging data needed on my mobile phone. I also like SyncMate’s ability to synchronize notes and share Internet.

Victoria Veligodsky: How did you benefit from using SyncMate?

Björn König: Eltima’s SyncMate is an easy to use tool that gives me the capability to sync my calendar and address data between a Microsoft Windows Mobile 6 device and an Apple Mac OS X 10.5 computer, a feature that Apple probably will never implement.
