SyncBack

Version: 3.2.18.0

Does what it says it does.

Pros: Makes it easy to synchronize or backup specific folders or groups of folders. Allows the user to specify whether to overwrite based on size, date, etc., or whether to delete files that no longer exist on the source or vice-versa... basically tailor it exactly to your needs.

Cons: Not exactly a con, but some of the options provided, though useful, can be very dangerous if not used carefully. For example, the option to delete files that are no longer in the source/destination: renaming a directory could result in it being deleted, that sort of thing.

Free Mp3/Wma/Ogg Converter

Version: 3.6

Not so good if you have to convert a lot of music.

Pros: Decent encoding options, works well for the odd conversion.

Cons: Not suitable for converting large amounts of files unless they're all in the same folder (folders must be added one by one)

AceMoney

Version: 3.9

Better than anything else I've tried

Pros: This program is straight-forward and easy to use. I used it for the 30-day trial and then decided to buy Quicken instead, which was almost the same price and is supposedly a much better and more complete program, from the reviews I'd read. After less than 1 hour using Quicken and its bloated, ugly interface and lame sounds and effects, I deleted it in disgust and bought AceMoney. What a difference. It's missing some of the advanced features of Quicken, but it does what I need it to, and to me it's well worth the trade-off.

Cons: Though I prefer AceMoney to anything else I've tried, it still feels more like unsupported freeware than a $30 program. There are little glitches and bugs and a lot of simple features I would expect to find are absent. On the other hand, I haven't been able to find anything better (and believe me, I've looked) and I guess $30 isn't too bad. Especially compared to that sorry excuse for software that calls itself Quicken.
