Over the last several weeks we have teamed up with our friends at Tranquil PC to give away some two year subscriptions to their HomeServerSync add-in for Windows Home Server. Now its time to reveal the final winners and a extra surprise.
The first two giveaways were a huge success and it has been no different for this final one. Now that this giveaway has ended, we have given away a total of 10 two year subscriptions to HomeServerSync, each worth a whopping £278 each, which means we gave away £2780 just for you, our UWHS readers.
If you are not sure what HomeServerSync is, you should check out our review – part one and part two.
HomeServerSync has ten top features, and here are the last five:
5. VPN
Many of the HomeServerSync features are based on our own secure VPN (Virtual Private Network) system. This service means that your PCs and Home Server can be ‘joined’ together in their own private and secure network. This always and anywhere service releases the Home Server functions beyond your home or small office.
6. Access your Home Server remotely
Ever needed to access your Home Server console, but where not locally connected? Now you can access the Home Server Console and all features from anywhere in the world
7. Backup your PCs via the internet
Although we do recommend that the first backup should be done locally, with HomeServerSync you can now backup your PCs where ever they are, ideal for remote family members or office workers.
8. Open / restore Home Server backups
Have you ever needed to get access to an older backed up file from you Home Server, but you weren’t on the local network ? With HomeServerSync you can get access to the PC backups, just as if you were locally connected.
9. Access your Home Server shared folders and Home Server Desktop
With HomeServerSync, you can now continue to access your Home Server shared folders even from outside your local area network. Now you can steam your music or share your pictures where ever you are. If you are more advanced and need to open your Home Server desktop you can do that too, without technical issues (ie port forwarding).
10. Web control and file access
With your HomeServerSync Offsite Backup account you can access all of your backed up files – and download / delete them. You can set alerts to be emailed to you – see how much space you have used and much more.
For this final giveaway, we are giving away another FIVE licences (one per person), and all you had to do was send us an email giving us a suggestion for the site, whether it is an article, a change to the look of the site, the logo, anything, or just send us a comment about what you want to see on the site – the choice again is yours. How easy was that?
Well, I know we said FIVE licences, but let’s make it SIX!!!!
And the lucky winners are:

Heath Elsensohn
David Hersko
