To me it seems like they haven't been able to make Windows Firewall play nice with their sync software, because they chose to install it as some kind of network device. I have followed all their directions and even reset my firewall rules, and I still can't make the thing sync without disabling the firewall.

IMO connecting some mobile device shouldn't be this hard, so to me this is a 'fail'. Their statement 'oh by the way, if you use a firewall this might not work' reads kind of like 'we tried to make this work, but this stuff is difficult so good luck'.
