Besides, It lets you sync address book, Outlook, Thunderbird and Gmail between your phone and MyPhoneExplorer.

What the MyPhoneExplorer alternative excels

Although MyPhoneExplorer assists in managing your Sony Ericsson and Android phone, I'd like to show you an alternative, which can do more things than MyPhoneExplorer. That is the Wondershare MobileGo for Android (Win), a one-shop Android manager. With its help, you can:

• Easily download, install, uninstall, export, share Android apps and even move apps to SD card;
• Send a single text message to one or more persons from the computer, or save all or selected threads as an XML/TXT file;
• Sync Outlook, Windows Address Book, Windows Live Mail with your Android phone;
• Read or manage all files on the Android phone memory card and SD card;
• Download, transfer and convert music and videos to your Android phone and tablet, and export to the computer;
• Convert any video file to audio one;
• Drag and drop lots of photos to and from your Android phone and tablet;
• One click to backup all text messages, apps, contacts, calendar, call logs, music, photos, videos and playlist info, and restore when in need.

If you're a Mac user, you can try the MyPhoneExplorer alternative for Ma – the Wondershare MobileGo for Android Pro (Mac). With it, you can do most things as the Windows does. However, it still has some limits. It doesn't let you convert music and video to Android compatible formats, or sync contacts from Outlook, Windows Address Book and Windows Live Mail with Android phone. There is no resource center for you to download apps, music and videos as the Windows version does.
