CodeTwo Public Folders has finally made its way to Android! Last week marked the release of the new version of the program featuring the first build of dedicated Android app. Thanks to the new mobile applications you will finally get to access your public Outlook contacts, calendars and tasks from an Android phone or tablet. What's more, the iOS version of the program is also coming up soon! The new CodeTwo Public Folders mobile app will give you the maximum of freedom in accessing your shared Outlook items, wherever you are and whenever you need. It uses the same type of connection with  the Syncing Master as the desktop Client Apps on your PCs. It means your data is never uploaded to the Cloud and exposed to 3rd parties. The calendar entries, contacts and tasks are stored only on the linked devices and that's what makes CodeTwo Public Folders so special and safe. CodeTwo Public Folders Android app in fact consists of three separate applications for managing contacts, calendars and tasks. They allow  for creating, editing and removing your public Outlook items, exactly the same way as the Client Apps on desktop machines. After installing the mobile app from Google Play you will be asked to establish a connection with the Syncing Master. Before you do that your CodeTwo Public Folders desktop installation should be already configured (Learn more). You can also choose to test the application with the Demo Server first. In this scenario the configuration of your own Syncing Master is not required. Managing Outlook items with the mobile app on Android device is very simple. Given that the administrator hasn't limited the access rights in the Administration Panel of the Syncing Master (Learn more), users can choose every public folder from Outlook to be displayed and synchronized. After that, the Outlook items are displayed in the dedicated Android apps and synchronized with other devices in real time. Whenever someone changes anything on any other device in the network, it will be replicated on other PCs and mobile phones immediately. Using CodeTwo Public Folders Android apps is free of charge for all users that own the license key for the current version of the program. However, in order to work properly with the mobile applications, the desktop installation of the program needs to be updated.

It's been roughly 4 months since we released our previous program and we're ready to present a totally new stuff! Ladies and Gentelmen - please welcome CodeTwo Outlook Sync! It has been designed to live up to requirements of thousands of users worldwide who need a simple, logical and ridiculously easy-to-use sharing tool for Microsoft Outlook. The program will let you sync Outlook between two computers with a few clicks. And.. yes! It's also available in a free version.

CodeTwo Public Folders is a versatile collaboration tool for Microsoft Outlook users that enables sharing all Outlook items across local network and between multiple PCs. It allows companies of small and mid sector to save a lot of money on IT services, since no server deployment and maintenance is required in this case. For less than $500, an average office can get a professional collaboration system that streamlines teamwork in Microsoft Outlook and makes every employee work faster and more efficient. See the video below to get a grip of how it works: In this article we will cover only a small selection of possibilities this program gives you and we will explain how to improve project management and work efficiency while working on tasks in Microsoft Outlook. Step 1: Arrange the folders in Outlook Let's start with building the right Outlook folder tree structure. As you can see in the picture above CodeTwo Public Folders lets you create public folders in the exact same way as it is done with private items. Every folder appearing in the C2Public Folders section is by default visible to all users in the network. If the access rights are not changed by the administrator, users can read, modify and delete public folders whenever they want. What's more all changes are synchronized with other machines in real time. Step 2: Assign smaller tasks to team members In this example we have split the whole office into two teams: Team Green and Team Red. Every team has its tasks grouped in projects and assigned to team members. The advantage of this method is that every project can be divided into smaller stages (tasks). This organizes teamwork in a better way and results in good job performance and quality. Step 3: Keep a diary of your work Thanks to CodeTwo Public Folders team members and managers can monitor the progress of the given project, since all changes are replicated to other machines in real time. Team members only need to update the status of a given assignment and keep a log of everything what's completed within the task (as shown below). Note that all data is synchronized together with the task, including documents and other files attached by users. Step 4 (optional) Set access rights for public folders in Outlook This collaboration model can also be enriched with access rights set up allowing team leaders to decide who can view, edit or delete Outlook items synchronized with CodeTwo Public Folders. These settings are easily accessible from the machine equipped with the Syncing Master module - a sort of brain in every CodeTwo Public Folders network.

My brother told me recently that he wants to share documents with his workers but the word 'synchronization' gives him the shivers. For the majority of people 'synchronization' or 'sync' smell like corporate, Japanese, big time, Blackberrian language only wise teenagers or IT geeks can understand. Take it easy! It's simple, trust me. I will make your shivers go away, just continue reading. Synchronization is common in nature and everyday life - marching soldiers, dancers, synchronized watches, oarsmen. So basically the same things happen in different places at the same time. If you synchronize your computers and their files, you have the same amount of data on different machines, at the same time. If you change anything on one computer, it is also changed on another one. Why do you need this? To enhance your teamwork (common calendars, inboxes, lists of tasks, common contacts and databases) - all is done automatically and in real time. You don't have to tell your secretary and workers you are out of town on Friday - they already know it because your calendars and documents are in sync!
