A mixed blessing at best
jurgfellaMay 29, 2013
Pros
The core functionality works well, with the output being fairly straight-forward HTML that is easily tweakable.
Cons
Although the core functionality works well, this product has a very buggy interface that, although the company has been contacted on a number of occasions, they have not remedied. Problems include that their coloring scheme does not work; that some of the report options do not work; that after generating a report, the report does not initially open, but you have to go and find it; that after generating a report you cannot generate another report without closing the product and re-opening it; that it's slower than other comparison utilities; and that it's much too expensive.
Summary
On balance, this product is a decidedly mixed blessing, with a core functionality (text comparison) that works well, but with a buggy interface (see above). The product is also much too expensive for what it does.
Says the Program is Free and its not
Lordsbaby2007January 21, 2011
Pros
nice layout
Cons
In wrong directory to be Free, it is an evaluation version so therefore it needs to be in FREE TO TRY, not FREE
Summary
NOT FREE AT ALL Wrong Catergory Updated on Jan 21, 2011I went to uninstall and cannot find it in the add and remove. This is not a free program you have to pay for it. The program needs to be placed in the FREE to TRY.
Amazingly shi++y!!!

Pros
It made me laugh; so I guess that could be loosely interpretted as a good thing.
Cons
The description is misleading in that it implies that this is actually functioning software and that it can be used for something other than illustrating how not to program.
Summary
Words cannot convey the awfulness of this malignant string of bits claiming to be software. First install thought I had already used all 30 trail runs. Second attempt at the install allowed me to run the program which promptly crashed. The third attempt to use the program resulted in a hang-up that has to be terminated via the task manager. For extra humor, lots of weird error messages are thrown in such as this hilarious gem: ?This action cannot be completed because the other application is busy. Choose ?Switch To? to activate the busy application and correct the problem.? Unsurprisingly, the ?software? is somewhat slower than rock formation. Using this tragic example of bad code is like boxing a glacier.
Some kind of bug after the download

Pros
Couldn't tell you at this point
Cons
I downloaded it and went to open it..and a message popped up that basically said "you have already used this software too many times. Try buying it". Too many times would be Zero

Developer’s Description

By SoftInterface

Compare files and folders on your PC easily and accurately.

You demand fast and accurate document comparisons, and now you can have it. 'Diff Doc' is a powerful yet easy to use folder/file compare and remediation utility. Use it to compare files of all types including MS Word/Excel/PowerPoint, PDF, RTF, Text, XML, HTML, Wordperfect and more. Our document comparison utility works the way all software should work -- accurately, quickly, simply, and affordably. Regardless of the editor you are using (MS Word, Excel, Wordpad, Notepad), simply load the original and modified files, press the Refresh button (or F5), and the document comparison will display promptly. Additionally, you can compare folders to see exactly what files have changed before doing a detailed file comparison. 'Diff Doc' can display the file differences in two possible views, 'All In One', or 'Side By Side'. Both views have their advantages, and switching between them is as easy as a mouse click (or F6). Lastly, many reports are available, including HTML, detailing the diff-erences. It is the best document comparison tool you've never tried.... till today! 'Diff Doc' Features Compare documents of MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Wordperfect, PDF, Rich Text (RTF), Text, or HTML and retain formatting Choose any portion of any document (file) and compare it against any portion of the same or different document (file). Compare files of any type against any file type (i.e. An MS Word compared against a. Wordperfect document). Change the colors and formatting used to highlight the document changes. Integrated into the Windows Explorer Shell (Windows Explorer, Desktop, Find in Files, etc.) for quick comparisons. Navigate easily through the file differences with the Next (F7), Previous (Shift+F7) navigation buttons. Or use the drop down list box to jump to a specific difference. Paragraph differences are highly detailed. Compares text from any application by cutting and pasting into 'Diff Doc'. Compare Letter by Letter or Word to Word.
