Spanning Sync is very good – I’ve been on the beta for a few months now.
BUT
It has all gone a bit pear-shaped now they have announced the pricing. $25 per year or a one off payment of $65.
WAY too much and the feedback on their blog echoes this. Shouts this actually.
too expansive !
this tool works fine, it’s true, and I wish someone make the same but less expansive !
how can they price it by year ?? I can’t believe that, and 65$ for non sub licence is a lot too much for what it is !
so I hope Leopards include this (and after announces by apple and google, I bet it will be the case) !
Spanning sync team are trying to make money before this ! never subscribe, you will regret before you first year :)
