CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
From install to operation, this freeware is one of the easiest file compression tools you'll find. JustZIPit doesn't bother with an interface. Installation takes only a single-click as the application merely adds two items to your Context menu. Help is a single page and should easily explain the application to all users.
Operating JustZIPit takes a single-click to zip or unzip a file or folder. Right-click any file or folder and choose JustZipit Create and the file or folder is compressed quickly to a ZIP file. Saving time, the zip file is named the same as the folder or file and given the zip extension. The application includes a second function to perform the ZIP operation, and then add the file to a new e-mail using your default e-mail client. Oddly, unzipping a file means clicking it and selecting JustZIPit Create. The application will unzip files created with other ZIP tools.
Compressing and uncompressing is very quick with this tool. It needs no additional DLL or .NET to run. While the lack of an interface may bother some users, power users looking for simplicity and speed will want JustZIPIt.

Version: JustZIPit 135
Pros: I wanted a simple file compression mainly to send music to friends and after looking around I plumped for justzipit. On the surface it seemed the simplest to use yet I never managed to send a thing so was not much use at all. It has a great 'justzipit and e-mail' function, so I clicked that. You could see it compress and then nothing. No e-mail window opened, nothing saved anywhere. I checked there help and forum sections but nothing. I sent them an e-mail and never got a reply.
Cons: In principle it should work like a charm but does not. I might have been unlucky but it never worked for me.
Check out others before trying this. It does not have an uninstall button amd cannot remove it completely from my computer. Shame the idea was there but not a working programme.

Version: JustZIPit 135
Pros: It's quick beyond belief, and it does the basics extremely well. I have made it my default and activate Winzip on those rare occasions for which I need it. Those are becoming increasingly rare.

Version: JustZIPit 135
Pros: Fast, free, takes up virtually no space. Doesn't hog resources.
Creates folder with same name as original zipped file which makes it easy to find the output.Cons: Can't direct output to a specific folder. HOWEVER its easy enough to move the zip file to where you want the results first. Must unzip entire folder rather than pick and choose as in Winzip. Could be an issue if you have a lot of files in a folder.
Summary: I've been using this for a long time and see virtually no reason to use more complicated products. I recommend this to virutally all my clients. This is a winner.
