Laplink History — Watch the timeline video

1983 – Laplink Software was founded as Traveling Software in Bothell, Washington, when the IBM Personal Computer was just two years old. The company released an innovative application called Laplink that allowed users to transfer files between two computers using a serial cable. The program was an instant success, becoming one of the most popular utilities on the market.

1992 – Laplink for Windows was released. Before the internet became widely available, transferring files between computers was a tedious process that often involved floppy disks and sometimes the need to split files into smaller segments. Laplink changed all that by allowing users to transfer files over a serial or parallel cable. The program was easy to use and transferred files quickly and efficiently. It was so successful that it became synonymous with the company’s name. Even today, many people still refer to file transfer software as “Laplink”, even if they are using a different product.

1997 – Laplink Gold was released as a groundbreaking product that revolutionized file transfer and remote computer access and control via the internet, making it possible for users to access their home or work computer from anywhere in the world, as long as they had an internet connection. It was a game changer for businesses, and it cemented Laplink (as the company was now known) as a software industry leader.

2003 – Thomas Koll, former Corporate VP at Microsoft and former chairman and CEO of Infowave Software, became Laplink Chairman and CEO.

2004 – Since 2004, the company’s flagship product, PCmover, has been used by millions of people worldwide to transfer their files, data, and settings from one computer to another. Over the years, Laplink has expanded its product line to include other software solutions such as Laplink Sync, Laplink DiskImage, and Laplink SafeErase.

2014 – Microsoft partnered with Laplink to provide Windows users with free data transfer software for users moving off of Windows XP, which had reached its end-of-support date.

2022 – In partnership with Intel, Laplink released its new cloud-based Laplink Everywhere, a robust remote monitoring and management solution designed specifically for small to mid-sized businesses looking to manage devices for employees working from anywhere.
