CNET Editors' review
Defragmenting your hard drive is a necessary part of owning a computer. It's why Windows now turns on its onboard defragmenter by default. However, the options in that program are limited. Defraggler outdoes it in every way imaginable. With quicker performance, more features and detailed statistics, this defragmenter is the only one you need.
One of the standout features Defraggler offers is that it can defrag files individually. If one or two of your programs are struggling, you can specifically target them in the process during a quick defrag. This increases their power as well as your computer's overall speed. When you're examining your drive, Defraggler gives you a clear, color-coded map. That, in addition to detailed info about your hard drive's overall health, is delightful for power users while being useful for the average folks. Though the program can sometimes hang at zero percent for minutes on end, it actually moves faster than most defragmenting programs when it's working on your drive. With quick, boot, and low-priority defrag modes, it will never get in your way. You can use your computer however you want as it runs.
With an unmatched feature set and quick defragging, it's hard to recommend any other defragmenting program. Even though there's a professional version of Defraggler that costs $30, this program isn't missing anything that could be worth that download. Plus, unlike just about every other program, it never asks you to download the full version. It's safe to say you'll never need to go back to the default option in Windows again.

"Quick Defrag and now Free Space optimization!"
Version: Defraggler 2.14.706
Pros
The Quick Defrag is very quick: Defraggler analyzes your hard drive quickly, compared to other defrag utilities. So it doesn't waste time and gets right to work in defragmentation of the fragmented file list it creates.
Cons
The full defrag takes a long time. I don't recommend using that. The disk map could be made more detailed, since it only shows the swap file and MFT Zone; it does not display the metadata files and other unmovable files such as System Restore points in Vista and Windows 7.
Summary
Adding a free-space defragmentation to the Scheduler has made defraggler even more useful - this is a built in feature of paid programs like Perfect-Disk, which is now implemented in a free utility. Very useful for keeping external USB drives optimized; since these drives are oft used for storing large image files and the like. Thus optimization of remaining free space is much more important than the small amount of fragmentation of large files that ensues; and is a faster goal to achieve.
