"Greatest find since sliced bread!"
Version: Ava Find 1.5
Pros
I own it! It lives up to it's advertising! Finds any and everything I need it to find. I bought the full version. I was a Webmaster on an Embroidery Design site and had so many files and I couldn't find anything until someone told me about Ave Find!
Cons
If you are always trying to find files this is for you!
Summary
Best software that will truly help you find anything on your computer and externals. I have two attached to my computer and Ave Finds will locate something in "backup"!

"Liked well enough to make it my default search utility."
Version: Ava Find 1.5
Pros
Installation: No problems at all
Ease of Use: It doesn't get any more intuitive than this.
No overcomplicated & unnecessary features to bog down the system performance.
Search results come up very quickly because of continuous drive indexing.Cons
More control of search results with an improved filtering system is in order.
Summary
I love it, and I've tried a bunch; and I do mean a BUNCH of search programs. The rest either: didn't work, kept freezing & crashing, were too bloated, or had an interface that simply didn't agree with me for some reason.
I have only a few suggestions...
1) It would be great to be able to copy-to-folder, or move-to-folder from the search results.
The "Save Result Listing As" is very handy--Possibly future releases may include the ability to save as a delimited, Excel, and even Access files? -
"Wasted time trying this program."
Version: Ava Find 1.5
Pros
Looks okay.
Cons
Once you find the files you cannot copy them.
Very limited options.
Not intuitive.Summary
1- Could not search a directory. Had to search a whole drive.
2- Sorted by "Rank?" What the F is that? Not file size, or date or alphabetically.
3- Could NOT do anything with the files after I found them. (Specifically, I could not copy them to another location.)
4- It told me I had to buy the pro version 20 minutes after I installed it.
Don't waste your time on this program.
Bad program. Very limited ability. -
"Overall I like this program but it could be more stable"
Version: Ava Find 1.5
Pros
IT LIKE THE FILE SIZE SORT & CURRENT FILE ACTIVITY.
Cons
It is good but recently has been crashing so I had to remove & reinstall and seems OK.[5-24-2011]. I gave it a 3 because it hasn't been updated for a very long time. This stability issue has just occurred so my comment now includes that point as well
Summary
Works for what I needed at the time I 1st installed it, but the crashing and the lack of an update has let it fall by the wayside for me. I do use it but not as often. I guess its easy to comment, as I am not a programmer as to it's what and when, but I still Thank the author of this freeware.
