Laplink Software - Reviews and experiences

I bought PCmover the other day and I wasn't too happy about finding out that it can only be used once before needing a new license. They didn't mention this important info until I tried to use it a second time. I feel like I was tricked and lied to because they weren't clear from the beginning.

Got PC Sync OEM version with my new laptop. I tried to sync it with my Workstation, but ran into trouble because some of the directories had more than three levels. I had to split up the sync jobs into three separate ones. Then my hard drive crashed, so I had to reinstall the OS, but the license failed. Laplink told me the product was no longer supported, so I would have to buy it again. They did offer me a small discount, but it wasn't very helpful since my other PC still had PC Sync and no parent system. Overall, I found it to be an unreliable product with poor customer support. I suggest avoiding it and using something better and free instead.

I just bought a transfer cable and software from Laplink to move files to my two new laptops. But, man, was I let down big time! The software has this dumb rule where you can only transfer files once. Like, what the heck is that about? So not cool. I'm so ticked off and feeling totally unsatisfied with my purchase. I'm never buying from them again and to be honest, I'd tell others to stay away from their stuff because of these ridiculous policies. On top of that, their customer support was pretty useless and didn't know squat, which just made everything worse.
