How to sync Samsung Galaxy S III with Microsoft Office Outlook

Posted on by Rushang

We want to show you how easy it is to sync Samsung Galaxy SIII with Microsoft Outlook. There appears to be a lot of confusion by S3 owners about how to do this. CompanionLink can automate the sync process with a few simple configuration steps.

CompanionLink is right for you if you are looking for:

  1. Plug-and-play sync experience. Connect your Galaxy S3 to the computer and the sync will begin automatically.
  2. Reliable sync. No fussing around with hard resets, switching to Mass Storage Mode, or lost data during the sync.
  3. Data security. We offer both USB sync and encrypted Cloud sync. Furthermore, our Outlook-like app for Android encrypts all the data you sync so no one can break into it even if your phone is lost.
  4. Complete Outlook data. We sync all your data – contacts, calendar, tasks, notes, journal, categories, and contact photos.

Samsung devices ship with free software to sync Galaxy S 3 with Outlook. Many users report that it is a very complicated process that often destroys their data. Your mileage may vary. If you don’t want to deal with this, CompanionLink is for you and others who value their data and time. We even offer free US-based phone support to stand behind our software.

Steps for Outlook to Galaxy S3 sync:

  1. Install CompanionLink for Outlook to your computer. It is free to download and try for 14 days.
  2. Download the DejaOffice CRM app on your S3 for free from the Google Play store. The app gives you contacts, calendar, tasks, notes, journal and categories just like Microsoft Outlook.
  3. Synchronize using CompanionLink. Choose from DejaConnect USB sync or DejaCloud sync. Both are secure.

Yes, it’s really that simple to sync Microsoft Outlook to Galaxy S3. Give it a try and please share your feedback below.

    Sorry if this is a repost

  • CJT

    Very disappointed that this hasn’t worked for me! It sounds great and the synch *seemed* to run but now I can’t see/retrieve the data.

  • Andrew

    Use Kies; it’s a free download from Samsung and it does it all no problem! stop messing with the apps, tney don’t work!

    • Bert

      Well, sorry to disappoint you but KIes doesn’t work with WIndows 8 ;-((

  • SingSalaLaLa

    So, I have spent sooooo many hours trying to find a sync app: Outlook 2003 contacts and calendar TO my Samsung Galaxy S3 (USC). Kies 2.0, Kies Air, Mobiledit, Mobisynapse, DataPilot, let me see, who else…? NONE work. Either it can’t detect my phone – or it does nothing. So, here I see another, CompanionLink – but what I notice is that one needs to run a separate APP on the phone: DejaOffice. So Outlook contacts will sync with DejaContacts. What? I want my Outlook Contacts and my Outlook Calendar to sync with my PHONE’s Contacts (Address Book) and Calendar. So my question here is: does CompanionLink do that????

    my android has Dejamemos and I like the feature…are they synced on my PC and, if so, where can I find them?

  • http://www.companionlink.com Rushang S.

    I think you mean DejaMemos, which is where notes reside. That app used to be called DejaNotes in some very old versions of DejaOffice. It is now called DejaMemos.

    • a3z

      Yes, that is what I am asking about. Have it on my phone but would like to find on my PC. Thanks.

    Syncing my Outllook Personal Folder contacts with my Samsung Galaxy Note 2 puts all contacts into the Google Account, under the “My Contacts Google System Group”. I would like to have them under the “Integrated groups” of the local contact application, with the same categories as they appear on Outlook. How can I do that ?

    How can I sync Outlook calendar with the Samsung S Calendar application on Galaxy Note 2 (instead of the DejaOffice Calendar) ?

  • DovEphraim

    I contacted Samsung, and have successfully set up sync with my Outlook calendar by following their recommendations. I set up the e-mail account configured with Outlook as a separate Inbox on my S-III and the Outlook calendar syncs to the S-III calendar automatically.

    • Istvan

      Dear Ephraim, can you please let me (and many others) know how to synchronise?

    Does the Companionlink software work with Outlook or with Dejaoffice?

    • http://www.companionlink.com Rushang S.

      CompanionLink works with both. Think of it as this equation: Outlook CompanionLink DejaOffice. CompanionLink synchronizes Outlook (on your PC) with DejaOffice (on your Android). If you need more info, please email me at social@companionlink.com

    Can I syncronize Galaxy S III with MS Outlook 2003 S3?

    • http://www.companionlink.com Rushang S.

      Absolutely! We support Outlook 2000 and higher. http://www.companionlink.com/android/outlook/

      • nick

        is possible to open attachment file ex. word or excel?

        • http://www.companionlink.com Rushang S.

          CompanionLink doesn’t handle opening of MS Office attachments. However, there are other 3rd party tools for that. Search the Google Play store for “MS Word”.

        Since you seem to represent a firm offering such a product and giving such advice, may I make an important suggestion ? When I last considered switching to an Android device I wasted weeks investigating products that claimed to sync/integrate with “Outlook” when what they really meant was that they could exchange data with an Exchange server. MANY people use Outlook with no Exchange server or in “IMO” (internet mail only) mode. For another IMO (in my opinion), you should discuss this distinction specifically when discussing syncing or knowledgeable people may conclude you don’t know the difference and should not be trusted for such information. The upside is that people who have dealt with this will be strongly attracted to a confirmed offering specific to their needs.

        • http://www.companionlink.com Rushang S.

          Great point Don. We mention the distinction between standalone Outlook and Exchange-driven Outlook where applicable. For example, it’s on our Android/Outlook page: http://www.companionlink.com/android/outlook/

          We actually support both type of Outlook setups. If someone has an Exchange Server, we can sync to Exchange Public Folders if they so choose. However, CompanionLink does not require Exchange.
