A Better Finder Rename for Mac

User Reviews

• Does the Job

  tiredtigerrunJune 20, 2015

  Pros

  i needed to get rid of leading track numbers and a handful of other things. This helped me organize my entire library! Pretty simple to use. Did the job.

  Cons

  Takes a while as you can only do 10 files at a time!! and it tells you EVERY TIME that you should be upgrading, i know this pls stahp.... Changes the homepage on your browser (shocker...) installs JustCloud which is extremely annoying and useless but on the install page it gives you a CHOICE, i didn't know i had one as it made it seem necessary for the app. Price is too high...

  Summary

  Would I recommend this program? Yes, absolutely and although there are a lot of cons, it is to be expected with a free application as it is how they are funded, unfortunately by malware. It still did the job and in less time than it would take me to do it one by one.. 10/10 would use again.

• So much malware.

  Juji81December 7, 2013

  Pros

  I couldn't say, since I was distracted by the malware meltdown of 2013.

  Cons

  Um, MALWARE. Suddenly, I have Yahoo! as my default search engine on Firefox and Chrome, all kinds of Ebay and Amazon extensions on both browsers. Oh, and a couple of applications that I can't delete. And this on my Mac!

  Summary

  I've used CNET for years to download programs. It's supposed to be safe. I even went through (albeit unintentionally) the CNET installer. What. The. Heck.

• A Better Finder Rename Mac A Must have Utility

  junebug001November 11, 2012

  Pros

  Same author for Mac & PC versions. Both have been around for years. Both have been constantly update. Quick, Flawless, Can handle any of your renaming needs. When you need it... There is nothing better than either one of these "Better" products.

  Cons

  The only one I can think of is me.... Better Finder Rename is used to correct my file naming mistakes or to improve on existing ones.

  Summary

  I'm not sure how long I have used this utility but it must be 12 to 15 years and they have never let me down.

• Best renaming program & batch file handler available!

  coit540April 25, 2012

  Pros

  I've used A Better Finder Rename for years. It is almost perfect in all the things it can do and saves you alot of time during renaming, serial renaming, etc. The only thing I wish it did that a previous version did is allow you to rename individual files one at a time.

  Cons

  Can't, in my hands, rename individual files one at a time. Author is supposed to be working a way to do this.

• Great but could be improved

  coit540July 19, 2011

  Pros

  Does so many great things it's hard to list the benefits.

  Cons

  Has lost the ability to modify individual names during a batch rename. This is a sorely missed feature. Please bring it back!

  Summary

  The hours and effort this will save you is easily worth the cost. I highly recommend it.

• Works great for the simple tasks I've tried

  jsabin--2008April 28, 2011

  Pros

  Saves time, don't have to do tedious renaming of files.

  Cons

  Only 10 files can be renamed at a time in the free version. But you can run it again and again. So for free, it's a deal.

  Summary

  Good little time saver.
