    using these type of application in office may violate u r company it policies.
    so please be careful saying that this can be used to connect to office folders

    @nirmal – it does not get synchronized as per pc, you need to specify the two folders path on your pen drive and on the computer on which you are running allway sync, it will make the folder contents same on both the path.

    so lets assume I have folder called docs on two computers, which i can synchronize using allway sync.

    you will get to know what i am saying when you try this application…i m sure u will love to use it if you need something like this.

    @ajay – well i am allowed to work from home from my office, so they know that i sync things then only i can work from home.

    and it does not connect to office folders? it just synchronize them.

    if it is some other company it is the honesty of the person using this software.

    Oh..I got it now. But as Ajay said I have restriction in using this. In my company if we want to connect to Office computer, we need to use extranet using VPN.

    Anyways a good application

    Well I usually prefer to sync back using a web storage rather than a external device as it allows me to access my files from anywhere but this can be a good addition if you want to sync using a external drive.
