Excellent product

Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />I used Stuffit Deluxe in its various incarnations before, paying for updates regularly. I got fed up in the end with the bloatware. This program is very good, quick and straight forward to use. It can handle all files I have thrown at it, I can turn off archives I don't want the program to open. I am quite pleased with it and bought the license very quickly after trying it. RGK
Saved me loads of the time and blends right into MacOS

Pros
Since the latest update this has made it to the #1 spot for archiving on my Mac.<p>The new icon looks great in my dock, a lightweight and efficient interface, and the encryption support is a valuable time saver.<p>Keep it up!
Cons
My only point on the wish list would be support for modifying archives. Anybody else missing this feature?

I'd rather run face-first into a brick wall than download this app again...

Pros
On the bright side, it only took 4 hours and 30 minutes to compress, granted it was quite a few gigs of info and 7z format. One more good thing about iArchiver is that I had to find a new, working application and I found BetterZip. Thanks!
Cons
The "extraction" created an empty folder and quit. It couldn't handle the own file it compressed and I had to download BetterZip to extract the 7z file. Maybe you need to buy it to have reasonable compression times and just have it successfully deal with it's own files, but it took a lot less time, effort, frustration and money to find a different application.

This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />i have switched from using windows 2 years ago and i am used to simple archiving applications such as WinRAR that just simply 'does the job'. on the mac platform however, it seems impossible for software developers to come up with a decent piece of software that does just that. maybe mac programmers are too creative, i don't know. i've been looking for the ultimate app eversince and still haven't found the perfect soulmate, maybe it's the lack of native commandline apps that limits the makers, maybe its a license/rights issue. anyway, closest to perfect so far seems to be iArchiver, and i've tried a bunch; stuffit: crap, stay away from my mac! / unarchiver: love it but has certain annoyances / betterzip: interface pisses me off / unrarx: too specialised and therefor incomplete for the most common tasks. the things at which iArchiver excells are simple to point out: 1. It can compress and decompress! 2. it supports a shitload of filetypes for decompression! (zip/sit/rar/ace/7z/ and more...) 3. it even looks nice, like a mac app, actually.
