    "No Time Wasted!"

    April 23, 2011  |   By Mr Reynolds--2008

    Version: DiskTracker 2.4.4b2

    Pros

    1.) Catalogs selected disks whether connected directly or on a network.
    2.) Once a disk is cataloged, it can be searched quite rapidly--and the search can include a number of disks at once.
    3.) Search results are much easier to obtain than in Finder.

    Cons

    Could be free, shareware, or $10 cheaper; probably could catalog faster than it does.

    Summary

    I do not pretend to have used this application for very long, and I am certain I have not considered all its features--I may never learn them all. Essentially for me it is a Snow Leopard replacement for CD Finder app, and it does handily all I want it to do. I have had it catalog only four hard drives so far, but they are fairly large ones full of data, so it may be unfair of me to make note of the seemingly long time it takes to catalog. Certainly it seems to take no time at all to find data, and it is much more intelligent and intuitive than Apple's Finder app IMHO, returning finds from all disks in a single single window, with all paths clearly indicated. Very good user interface. I like it.

    "fast useful flexible, is functional not mac juicy"

    January 2, 2011  |   By eidorb

    Version: DiskTracker 2.4.3b4

    Pros

    Handles big drives, fast, useful and flexible. Duplicate finder is also fast and customisable took 3 minutes to sort 3x10E6 files.
    Well worth the $$

    Cons

    user interface appearance is basic, looks dated.
    controls sparse for some things eg cancel dup find is missing

    Summary

    I like it. It works.

    "Easy to use"

    November 12, 2010  |   By stanhall

    Version: DiskTracker 2.4.3b4

    Pros

    If you have a bunch of Cds or DVDs this program will catalog them as fast as you can insert into reader. Has a fast search function and can tell which Cd the item is on if you serial number the discs

    Cons

    some times it seems to overload and quits. Save often

    "Great little program!"

    September 21, 2009  |   By russknan

    Version: DiskTracker 2.4.1b1

    Summary

    This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
    I have used DiskTracker for years now. It is simple, easy to use and, until recently, was pretty much bullet proof. Snow Leopard threw in some unexpected kinks, but the developer was very responsive to inquiry, got right on it, and we're now back in business. I don't agree with the previous reviewer that the interface needs to become more glitzy. When something works so well for the purpose intended and doesn't require an extensive manual to figure it out, why mess with it? Highly recommended.

    "This is broken"

    February 27, 2008  |   By Simon Chapman

    Version: DiskTracker 2.4b8

    Summary

    This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
    Flaky for me under Os 10.5.2 on an Intel iMac... Some disk records disappear from list view and only show up if I reinsert the disk and update the record. Stated volume and directory sizes are also unreliable, eg a 5GB folder shows up as 1GB. Meanwhile, I have none of these problems in version 2.3 on a G4 PowerBook running Os 10.4.11. This is hardly progress.

    "Very fast and easy even with huge amount of data"

    September 4, 2007  |   By michaelharmon

    Version: DiskTracker 2.3.3

    Summary

    This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
    I own a recording studio using Pro Tools HD for music recording and production. I have about 5 years worth of session file backup discs of clients music taking up over 550 (4.2GB) DVD-R discs. I had a fear of the program getting sluggish with more and more being added each month, but it hasn't. Even on my old 1GHz powerbook the file opens up quick and searches are surprisingly fast.

    I would highly recommend this app to anyone who needs to catalog the contents of any media for offline searching. This was the best $30 I ever spent.

    "Overpriced by 23.00"

    April 2, 2006  |   By buffaloskyy

    Version: DiskTracker 2.3.3

    Summary

    This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
    This program is OK but over priced. I find it easier to use Touvaly and the price is right "FREE". You can make a catalog searchable by SpotLight and copy it's contents to a Catalog CD. Much easier.

    "Can't scan network volumes under Tiger"

    October 4, 2005  |   By dzurn1

    Version: DiskTracker 2.3.2

    Summary

    This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
    Version 2.3.2 does NOT fix the problem of getting error -36, Can't scan volume under Tiger (10.4.2). I don't know if this is something with Apple's implementation, or how DiskTracker scans previously-scannable volumes, but there's now some kind of conflict with certain of my Windows server volumes. I have to get a user who is using Mac OS X 10.3.9 to catalog the problem volumes.

    That plus the fact it can't search or display Unicode filenames makes it tough to continue to use the app. I used it predominantly to index the network share volumes, and if it can't do that then it's not much use in the world of Spotlight and/or Quicksilver.

    Only two stars for Quality/Stability for now.

    "Not pretty, but blazing fast"

    July 29, 2005  |   By George Pytlik

    Version: DiskTracker 2.3.2

    Summary

    This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
    Sure, DiskTracker isn't the prettiest OS X application around but I find it intuitive enough. Most important of all is the speed. In my tests it came out more than 10 times faster than the next closest contender in doing a search for a file on my catalog of over 500 DVDs and CDs containing tens of thousands of files. That's worth something in my books, and well worth the licensing fee.

    "Not OS X savy and no unicode support!"

    May 15, 2005  |   By Ishikawa--2008

    Version: DiskTracker 2.3.1

    Summary

    This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
    This app is *so* classic like in many of its attributes and it does not support unicode at all - no use even if you've got one file name that has unicode characters inside it - won't search, won't even display its name properly.
