The comparison is far better than any other software as the hex files needs more attention in the data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Best part is you can compare two folders it will not only help you with text comparison but also help you figure out the missing files and you can keep opening the folders and it will keep comparing that UX is very helpful. You can easily add missing files and text by clicking on the arrows they provide for each difference. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of file and folder comparison that enriches. This level of feature, other softwares try hard to do such. It even helps the devs to merge the compared files that helps in resolving manual error Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I hate the UI, it is too old school. it doesnt brief at one place what are all the differences. Scrolling to th other end is a pain in this app Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Overall: Beyond compare has been presented to me be a friend many years ago and ever since it has been my reliable companion in all of my projects. I've used Beyond Compare in many different situations but mostly in Software Development projects. All this was before the Continuous Development became the standard. So many times I had to compare program sources between multiple developers and the test environment and later between test and production environment. Without BC this would have been a nightmare. But BC is more than that, I've used it to compare documentation folders between my notebook and centralized customer network directory to make sure the latest versions were always on the right spot. And finally I've used BC to compare remote servers with the site comparison. Once you've done the file comparision there are many viewers available to compare .CSV files, text files, binary files, images, you name it, BC's got it!

Overall: We use BC to sync data between multiple machines -- in fact, there are approximately 30 different automated batch jobs that sync critical data from one location to another in our environment, in addition to manually-fired jobs to sync data to USB-connected HDD's. I also use BC to sync data from my desktop to my laptop so that I have everything with me when I travel.

I am so happy to have purchased this (version 3) after using the trial quite a while ago. It is fantastic, for comparing so many different things. I use it for backing up, finding duplicates, keeping files that are the latest and dumping the older, seeing the various changes you have made in a document, slight changes of images using tolerance... the list goes on. I honestly am surprised at how many functions this helps my workflow while on the computer - I needed it for doing basic comparisons...

I am using this software on both Windows and Linux for over 10 years now and I can't do without it. I think that every serious programmer should have at least this software in their toolset. The price of 30 USD (standard) or 60 USD (professional) per license is a very good investment. No returning license costs either. And above all, it's very reliable software. Disclaimer: I am a happy user of Beyond Compare and not affiliated to any one working at Scooter Software or their owners.

I seriously have no idea how I could possibly work without this tool. Never would have thought the need to compare files and directories would come up so often. I use it for things unrelated to programming several times every week (plus many times every day for programming work).

I loved Beyond Compare for years. However, nowadays I get frequent freezes and crashes. Especially when comparing/syncing folders across a home network.

A must-have utility for any serious software developer/programmer. I use Beyond Compare on a near-daily basis. Very reliable and solid.

One of the very best, most powerful file/folder synchronization applications around.
