Overview

The firm Laplink Software has been providing connectivity products for over two decades, making it the second-oldest software company in the Seattle area after Microsoft.
The Laplink DOS program that transferred files between laptop and desktop computers was widely used, and “to laplink” was used as a verb to describe file transfers between computers.[citation needed]
In 1989, the company patented the first bi-directional parallel cable communications. This technology delivered unprecedented transmission speeds of 3 Mbit/s.
In 1994, Laplink released the first low-power radio modem with integrated auto sync software (a Bluetooth precursor). 1994 also saw the invention and patenting of Laplink’s “SpeedSync ”, a real-time, high-speed delta sync technology that enabled faster synchronization by updating only the changed bytes in a data set.
In the new millennium, Laplink began to concentrate on connectivity software such as remote control and remote support solutions, as well as refining its file transfer and synchronization technologies.
In 2003, Thomas Koll became CEOs of Laplink Software. Koll has strong ties with Microsoft, having managed the German division of Microsoft, and then moved on to manage Microsoft’s relationships with telecommunications companies. Under Koll’s direction, the company has introduced several new products and has expanded its retail presence.
Current Laplink products include:
* Laplink Gold-flagship deep remote support tool
* PCmover-simple, automatic migration solution (Kit works with Windows Vista)
* Laplink E]]verywhere-web-based remote access for mobile professionals
* PCsync- secure automated file transfer and synchronization software
* Laplink RemoteAssist-web-based, on-demand remote support
* PDAsync-superfast synchronization between PCs and mobile devices with support for Outlook, Lotus Notes, Lotus Organizer, and ACT!
