GooSync free account back by popular demand

WOLVERHAMPTON, England, April 14, 2010 — Since discontinuing its free GooSync service back in October 2009, Toffa International has received overwhelming demand to bring it back. Finally conceding to the masses, Toffa is re-releasing the ever-popular GooSync free subscription. As of Wednesday, April 14, 2010, users will once again be able to sign up to the basic GooSync account free of charge – and that’s not all. Existing Lite subscribers will now have even more great features, including an extended calendar sync range and multiple device support.

“While the GooSync Lite and Premium subscriptions continue to be very popular, it’s true that today’s financial climate means many users are just not in a position to pay for a Google sync service,” says Chris Jukes, Toffa’s CEO. “We are very excited about the re-launch of the free GooSync subscription. We want to continue to ensure all users have a reliable Google sync service during these harder financial times.”

GooSync ties in with personal management systems that are a natural component of today’s mobile phones and PDAs, extending Google Calendar to mobile devices. GooSync is designed to deliver a seamless service, regardless of whether someone chooses the basic, free option or the Premium account’s more expanded features.

“With GooSync, Toffa International’s goal is to provide everyone with something that is free and simple to use, and we’ve also set up a Premium option that delivers access to many more features,” says Chris Jukes, CEO of Toffa and GooSync. “So while GooSync’s basic service enables you to sync the default Google Calendar, our Premium account lets you sync multiple calendars, contacts directly with Gmail, and tasks to the GooSync inbuilt tasks application. Autosync and multiple device support are just some of the numerous features supported through GooSync.”

Classic from MotionApps, the Palm OS emulator for the new Web OS, will now include the GooSync Palm OS client as standard, providing the best over-the-air synchronization solution for Google calendars, contacts and tasks.

With the successful release of the Palm Pre supporting the new Web OS, there was only one thing missing, all of the vital Palm OS applications people have grown to love and rely on. Classic is a Palm OS emulator that runs on the Web OS, allowing you to run all Palm OS applications, now including GooSync.

GooSync ties in with original Palm OS personal management applications that are a component of the classic emulator from MotionApps, extending Google calendar to the new Palm Pre. GooSync is designed to deliver a seamless service, regardless of whether someone chooses the basic, Lite option or the Premium account’s extended features.

“It’s great news for users of Classic, being able to Sync with Google straight out of the box is an invaluable business service,” says Chris Jukes, CEO of Toffa and GooSync. “So while GooSync’s Lite service enables you to sync the default Google Calendar, the Premium service lets you sync multiple calendars up to 365 days in advance, contacts directly with Gmail, and tasks to the GooSync inbuilt tasks application. Autosync and multiple device support are just some of the numerous features supported through GooSync.” Also included are GooSync’s new features from the latest release, version 2.1, such as Google contact group synchronization.

Setting up a GooSync account is easy through the official GooSync website: http://www.goosync.com/. GooSync works on any device that is SyncML compliant, including the most recent Nokia, Sony Ericsson and Motorola phones. It is also compatible with Windows Pocket PC, Windows SmartPhone, Palm OS, Treo, BlackBerry and Apple iPhone by installing a SyncML client.

“A secure, hassle-free experience is key to the success of GooSync, plus the fact that it’s applicable to everyone, from the casual user to power user,” Jukes says. “With the service based on the SyncML data protocol, most phones will have no problem running either the Lite or Premium service.”
