Automatically
synchronize your Outlook Personal Folders intelligently
between two or more PCs or
between your desktop and your laptop

Don't go through the elaborate process of copying and replacing your pst files - synchronize them intelligently. If the selected folder does not exist in the target pst file the entire folder is copied, otherwise the source and target files are compared and the entries are synchronized based on creation time and/or subject.

SynchPst for Microsoft Outlook is incredibly useful when traveling. SynchPst synchronizes Outlook folders [all types] on two or more machines without the need for Microsoft Exchange. The product's name comes from the file type - PST - that Microsoft Outlook uses to store its folders and data.

To synchronize folders you need to be able to access the remote machine's PST file. This is done by mapping a Windows share on the remote machine to a local drive.

When you launch SynchPst, it in turn launches Outlook if Outlook is not already running. You select which folders are to be synchronized and click the button to select the direction of the synchronization as follows:

  1. To the local machine only or
  2. To the remote machine only or
  3. Bidirectionally

Resolving conflicts is straightforward: In bidirectional mode the item with the latest time stamp wins, and in single-direction synchronization the source item always wins.

The SynchPst settings also let you synchronize every so many minutes. This is great if you are planning to run out of the office at the last minute - it makes the final synchronization really fast.

Using the Professional edition you can save the current setup as a batch file, which lets you automate synchronization, for example, to synchronize just your in-box or just your notes.
