Last week we sold our 20,000th copy of BusySync! We're absolutely thrilled with the tremendous success of BusySync to date and we hope to continue delivering top quality products and support to our growing customer base.
BusySync users come in several varieties:
- Small workgroups sharing calendars over a LAN. Typically, this is a Mac-based family managing hectic work and personal schedules, or a Mac-based office with 5 or 10 users. Although we're not targeting large workgroups, we do have some installations with 50 or more users.
- Individuals syncing iCal with Google Calendar. Typically, this user is syncing between their computer at home and their computer at work, or sharing calendars with a remote user, by using Google Calendar as a conduit.
- And we have customers that are doing both, sharing calendars over a LAN, while also syncing with Google Calendar.
We're done tinkering with calendar syncing for the time being, and are hard at work on the next big feature -- Address Book syncing. Stay tuned!
Well done, guys. Keep up the great work. Looking forward to Address Book syncing. Cheers, Galen

Congratulations—love the software.
I'm excited to hear about Address Book sync. It makes me wonder more and more how Apple can charge so much for its MobileMe offering, when so much of its functionality can be duplicated for free or with small once-off payments for great apps like BusySync!

Congratulations! My wife and I use BusySync to sync between our calendards and I use(d) it to sync hours with Google Calendar (these were my working hours for a specific client).
We love this product!

Great product - using the trial version right now, but expect to buy in 2 weeks when trial runs out and I've got my new iPhone 3G
There have been some talks about addressbook syncing being a paid upgrade - can you confirm or deny ?
I don't want to buy the program only to have upgrade again next month - then maybe I'll just wait.

We most likely will charge an upgrade fee for the Address Book syncing. Pricing has not yet been determined. We expect it to be ready later this year.

OK, thanks for the info

Yay! Address Book syncing! Please, spare me from having to be a “beta“ tester for Mobile Me! Happy to pay an upgrade fee.

Yes Address Book Syncing....
Syncing with Google Address Book / Cotacts is a must, although you can do it in a round about way with OS X 10.5.4 with iTunes...

Address book sync yes please.
Mobile Me is a hard pill to swallow, given the mess it currently is.
(it may be better now, but to me it's reputation is blown)
Never had issues with Googles 'cloud'
