Reducing the size of files also allows users to save data on mobile devices. The major benefit of using compression software is more free space on a computing device and easier transfer of files either via a USB stick or online platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and file-sharing services. The main usage of file compression software is to reduce the size of a given folder or file that may be taking too much space. The best file compression software comes at a low cost (preferably free), is able to compress files to a large degree and allows users to compress multiple files at one time. It is a great upgrade from 7-zip for those who want a change.File compression software programs work by compressing the existing files on a computer/device to save space and make sharing content easier both online and offline. But, I think PeaZip is not meant to be a Pro Archiver, but one for beginners and intermediate users. The other advance users who are looking for the tools not offered by PeaZip may have to buy a Pro Zip software. Overall PeaZip is enough for the common user who just wants to compress and extract archives, and may have more than enough tools for them. I also notice that PeaZip is a bit slow when opening up an archive, about 1-2 seconds slower than 7-zip, but this is just being picky. The only downside of PeaZip are that some other tools are missing such as email, uploading and repair archive. The toolbar looks nice with buttons for the common functions.
The layout is easy to understand and can be changed.
It also has a variety of tools splitjoin, secure password, scheduler, ChecksumHash check, CRC check, convert archive, secure delete and more. It claims to support opening 150+ extensions and can compress to all the common type archives, mainly 7-zip, ZIP, ARC, TAR, ISO, but of course not RAR. PeaZip is probably the only open-source alternative to 7-zip that is worth using. Since 7-zip has not been updated recently(last stable:2010), I wanted to change to a new zip/compress tool.
