With its breadth of features, ease of use, and added bonuses such as version control, Syncplicity is our current top pick among file-syncing services.

With its multiple features and easy-to-use design, BeInSync is worth the extra money. But the inability to store backups on BeInSync servers, along with the service's poor attention to version conflicts, made us think twice. If the company addresses those areas, BeInSync could become an excellent business tool for managing your data.

It's difficult to make a final judgement on Dropbox while the file-syncing service remains in beta, but it's very simple to use and has some welcome features so the portents are good.

It's not a free storage service, but the free trial means you can test it out and see if it's what you need.

PCmover will migrate your settings and programs well in most circumstances but we did experience some glitches that means you might need to reinstall some programs yourself.

Portfolio 8.5 has new tools that will appeal to both existing and new users with timesaving features.

A simple, easy to use and very convenient piece of software.
