Version: BitZipper 5
"Great complete software"
Pros: I've been an user of WinRAR for years, althought I always used the demo version until one day I got tired of the 40 days expiration window screen.
While surfing on SerialDealers I found this software, I had 2 or 3 credits left so I decided to buy it, I didn't try the trial, I just went away and bought the full.
I liked it since the first time I used it, it had almost everything I wanted, and even some new features that at first I thought I wouldn't use but now I do, such as the backup feature.
I also saw that it had a very simple wizard, althought I'm an experienced Windows user for years, I just went away with the classic interface which really reminds of WinZip, althought I haven't used WinZip in seven years, at that time, WinAce or WinRAR was a better choice for me.
I can tell I like everything about this program, I haven't had any DLL corrupting problem like I read in the previous coment, I have this program since April or May and it has worked perfectly since then.
-Uncompresses all archive formats, even many that I didn't know they existed
-Has a backup tool which doesn't seem very interesting at first, until you're more into the program and you find it very useful, this isn't seen in any other archive utility. This is like an extra, which after all gets to be very interesting.
-Very WinZip style, if you're used to WinZip, this one will be so easy to use.
-Batch tool, another tool I thought I wouldn't use and now I do.
I don't know what else I can tell about this software, just that I'm very happy with it.
Cons: Unlucky, it has some cons that I found, I hope they can be fixed in the future, it would make this tool much more interesting.
-It's not able to compress into RAR or ACE format, being a WinRAR user for years makes me want a "compress to RAR" option.
-It's not able to uncompress Install Shield self extracting files like WinRAR does.
Otherwise I'm very happy with it.
