I was approached a while back about testing out and reviewing a new product called GoodSync2Go (or RoboForm2Go) — an easy way to sync passwords via USB drive. I was interested, merely at the fact that I would be able to load all my passwords on the USB drive and bring it around with me and not have to worry about my log in information being saved on the PC or anything like that.

So a flash drive was sent to me and I began to test just how well GoodSync2Go worked. Well you can call me impressed, I didn’t think it would work as well as it does but it definitely does the job. Using it at work is the main thing I had in mind for it and the GoodSync2Go bar that runs when the drive is plugged in makes it easy to log into sites you need to have access to. I especially like the ability to click on a site from the toolbar it automatically opens the site and logs me in.

GoodSync2Go is for Windows only, although you can sign up for Roboform Online and it will work with Mac and Linux computers via an online interface. There are also iPhone and Android clients available from their respective marketplaces.

The only thing that I noticed in my testing was in Gmail accounts. GoodSync saved the URL for the password as my Google Accounts page, but it was an easy fix to edit the URL for the saved password and point it in the right direction. Other than that it was a joy to play with and use GoodSync2Go.

GoodSync has two account types, Free and Pro, the free version of GoodSync2Go can be downloaded from the GoodSync website. Pro accounts can be purchased for $30 and include unlimited files in a sync job and unlimited sync jobs, and also free phone support.
