Reviewed by: CNET Staff
Whether you want to compare Word documents or PERL code, ExamDiff Pro loads any two files of your choice and shows you how they differ from each other.
Similar to its free cousin, but offering up many more options and customization, ExamDiff Pro displays the two files side by side, highlighting differences and allowing you to make changes on the fly. The app's handy interface offers several navigation schemes--buttons that take you to the previous or next change, a drop-down list of differences by line, or mouse functionality going directly to any line in either document.
What's more, if you open a subfolder or file in one directory, the program automatically compares it with the same item in the second. Files can be scrolled in tandem or separately, and there are numerous options for comparing items: looking at differences by line, word, or character; ignoring spaces; or only viewing similarities. Colors can be customized, and changes can be saved to one or both opened files. Output can be in Unix DIFF or HTML.
ExamDiff Pro should appeal to all levels of developers, from those just learning HTML to seasoned pros.

Version: ExamDiff Pro 3.3
Summary: I don't mind paying for shareware that is useful and that I use. I do mind have a version change once a year that I have to pay $35 for a new license! This product is very good but I will not pay for a version change from 3.1 to 3.2.

Version: ExamDiff Pro 3.3
"ExamDiff makes my development work faster."
Pros: I regularily use ExamDiff to help me manage software changes while I am refactoring code in a huge, Unix based, code base. I am a consultant and have found it extremely useful in multiple situations. Its configurability is very powerful. I especially like that I can compare directories, drill down in them and from the directory level, look at the changes in individual files.

Version: ExamDiff Pro 3.3
Pros: Using for comparing data warehousing dimension tables, very helpful! I like the HTML output, as I can send it to a user to show them what I'm talking about.
Cons: If your data is wide, it's hard to print out the results, but you can pick and choose, based on the slide bar.
