Google Outlook Sync
Comparison of competing products by price; low to high.
In addition to the features, look carefully at the Resync time. After the first day of use, all other days you will synchronize at least once. So the automatic sync and resync time are what is most important.

CompanionLink for Google
I have been using CompanionaLink since it was first available and it has been more than worth the price. It automatically syncs data added from my phone or PC. Their support is timely and effective. Highly recommended.
Service/Support - Response to Request

CompanionLink for Google
I've been a Companion Link software user for close to 7 years now. I don't subscribe to many software companies, largely because my own experience has been that a response, any response, to a web-generated request for support/service is woeful if one comes at all. Not so with CLink. Each time I reach out to them I get a response within several hours or even less. Equally important the service/support people actually read what is submitted and they respond with good/helpful advice. I was in touch with Tiffany today and she exemplified the high quality CLink Support/Service I have always experienced with this company any time I contact them. Thank-you!
