RoboForm now offers FREE online sync service.

Tuesday, May 26th, 2009

I’m sorry it’s taken so long to get back to the site, things have just been crazy. However, I saw something today that really got me psyched. As many of you know, I’m a die hard fan of RoboForm. I’ve been using it for years, and it just makes my online life so much easier to keep track of.

The one problem I had with RoboForm has been that I have so many computers (not their fault of course). I would be out on a job with my laptop, and be missing a passcard from my desktop. This often happened in reverse as well. If I needed to sign up for something while I was on a job, I would rarely get it synced up to my desktop for weeks.

The guys at SiberSystems tried to make our lives easier by creating GoodSync. With it, I was able to effortlessly sync my RoboForm data to and from my usb flash drive between all my desktops and laptops. However, it was still tedious, because if I had forgotten my usb drive, I would still not be up to date.

But… Once again SiberSystems comes to the rescue. They are now offering a free webdav server to all RoboForm Pro license holders. This WebDAV server is compatible with GoodSync, and easily configurable through RoboForm.

For further information on this great new FREE feature check out this page out. Also, it is only free for RoboForm Pro owners. If you haven’t already bought this awesome program, be sure to get 20% off your entire order with the coupon code NEVR1 during checkout.

Free Drawing to Reward Our Patient Readers. We ARE still Alive and Kicking.

Monday, January 19th, 2009

UPDATE: Our first giveaway (of many to come) has already started, be the first to post, and win your copy now!

Firstly, a big thank you to all our loyal readers who have continued to check in with us over the past few weeks. The holidays ended up overloading us over here, more than expected. However things are starting to slow down, and we’re finally starting to get caught up. A while back, we promised you some articles on getting good deals locally, and they’re still coming. Unfortunately we did not get them ready to post before the holiday rush.

We also had planned a special gift which was never even announced. It was originally planned to be either the week before or the week of Christmas. However, because of the holidays, there was an unexpected delay  in processing the licenses. So, unfortunately by the time they were in-hand, it was too late to be either a Christmas or Hanukkah gift. Once we missed the holidays it seemed less urgent, and got side tracked… sorry. We were going to wait for another holiday, but decided a gift is better late than never!

Some time within the next week or so, we are going to be announcing a drawing for 3 free licenses of GoodSync! The drawing will work as follows. Each of the licenses will be given to the people who post comments in the next post about the drawing which will be coming soon. This will likely be the very next post, however if we see something that is just too good to pass up, we will post it first.

The way the drawing will work is as follows: The first person to comment will receive one license. The remaining two will be given to either the best comment (see below, chosen by us), or chosen by random. Which of these two methods we use will be loosely based on the quality and quantity of the comments posted.

When you make your post be SURE to include a VALID email address. This address will not be shown publicly, and you will not receive any spam from us; however, if you do not include a real email address, we will have no way to send you your registration information.

For anyone who doesn’t win, does not want to wait, or needs more than one license; you can always go to the GoodSync website and apply the coupon NEVRG during checkout and you will receive 20% off your whole order.

The most popular uses for GoodSync, in my experience, is the ability to sync your My Documents and/or RoboForm data to a external/flash drive automatically. This is absolutely critical if you make frequent use of the ‘generate’ function in RoboForm when creating new logins. If you do not have your RoboForm data backed up, a hard drive crash could be even more devastating! It is also quite useful to sync your data between RoboForm desktop and RoboForm2Go (usb/u3), so that you have the same information at home and on the road.

My two favorite features are the ability to run when you insert a usb drive, and the option to to ‘tag’ the sync directories. This makes routine backups nearly completely automated. The tagging is to prevent syncing to an incorrect drive that has stolen the original drive letter.

For those who want to prepare for the drawing could do a couple things.

  1. You should add our feed to your favorite rss reader.
  2. You should either check it, or our site, frequently to make sure you are the first one to comment on it.
  3. Download GoodSync from their site and give it a try. The trial version works quite well, and gives you a very good feel for the program. When you register it (or win the drawing) it will remove all the various file/size limitations which come with the free version.
  4. If you would like to do a simple ‘give me free stuff’, or ‘NeverPayeTail is so awesome’ comment, that is perfectly acceptable. You may still win that way. However those who posted a detailed comment will be given priority.
  5. Telling us how awesome our site is will certainly not hurt; but it will likely not be the deciding factor.

The request at the end of the post announcing the drawing will be to write a comment detailing why you like, or would like to have GoodSync. You could also post about what you plan on using it for. We would also love to hear your comparisons (both positive and negative) between GoodSync and other competing products.

If a post stands out as being especially detailed, useful, thought out, or any other consideration we may make up… That person will likely win one of the licenses before any one line comment. Again, you do not HAVE to post a detailed comment, and writing one does not GUARANTEE you to win the drawing. However, those who do will get extra brownie points, and we all know that everybody loves brownies :-)

Finally, we have to get to the sticky stuff. If you are in any way related to anyone who helps maintain this site, anyone at SiberSystems, or any affiliate thereof, you ARE NOT eligible to enter, or win this drawing. Please refrain from doing so.

PS Feel free to comment below, but this is NOT the post to comment on, to win the drawing! It should be in the next week.

20% off Extended on RoboForm, RoboForm2Go and GoodSync

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

A couple months ago we arranged with our friends at SiberSystems to get our readers 20% off on RoboForm, RoboForm2Go and GoodSync by using our exclusive coupon code NEVR1. When we first announced the coupon we knew the software was great… we use it ourselves. However we could never imagined how popular the discount would be. Due to the tremendous demand for these discounts, our buddies at SiberSystems have let us offer the discount again.

If you go to the RoboForm website and enter the code "NEVR1" on the checkout page they will give you 20% off *anything* in their store. This includes RoboForm Pro, RoboForm2Go, as well as GoodSync. So for anyone who missed out last month, jump on it now, and pass the news on to your friends. With our coupon code NEVR1 which takes off 20% from the normal price of $30 to a mere $23. This coupon has no maximum limit applied to it, so if you have a big family, or wanted to buy copies for your office, this is the perfect time!

If any of you who don’t know what RoboForm is… It is a fantastic tool that can safely and securely remember your most sensitive information including passwords, addresses, credit and bank information, as well as typed notes about anything you want. When you finally need this information you click a single button and it will quickly detect the fields on the form and fill them out. It will detect how to format the information to the websites liking.

It also can help protect against keyloggers. Keyloggers can monitor every key you type. Some evil-doer somewhere will look over these logs looking for interesting information, like bank, or strings of numbers that look like bank credit card or identification numbers. Around these, he may find some more strings that he may be able to recognise as a username or password. This can lead to disasterous effects, as you might imagine.

RoboForm solves this because, you are no longer typing any of this information. You simply go to a site, click a button and it effortlessly appears. You may then be wondering, if they are monitoring my keystrokes, won’t they detect the RoboForm password too? Well, the great people at SiberSystems have thought of everything; you can either type the password with your keyboard, which is convienient, or you can type it with an on-screen keyboard which, like the form filling does not get logged as a keystroke.

It makes us proud to be able to bring this excellent software to you, our readers, at such a fantastic price. If the current demand keeps up, we hope to keep saving you guys money for a long time to come. Whether you make a lot of online purchases, sign up for contests, freebies, or simply want a convienient place to find things… Once you use this program, you will wonder how you ever survived without it!

This offer is open to all of our readers, old and new. Be sure to tell all your friends and family about this discount, and the website that works hard to save you money. If you are new to the site, be sure to check back regularly or subscribe to our feed to hear about future specials. This offer may be discontinued at any time without warning. Act now, while you still can!
