It helped me do my job but it has problems
Pros: Some days ago a friend asked me if I could download a web site for her. The problem was that in order to access this site (it was an online seminar) you should provide username and password in an online form. I tried several offline browsers, most of them couldn?t overcome that obstacle while few of them claimed that they could but on testing proved that they could not. I was happy to find out that WebZip will solve my problem, as it is capable to operate as a normal online browser, so I simply entered the web address and afterwards username-password and ? that?s it! I entered in the web area I wanted. After that things where quite easy; I selected to download the whole web site! Not forget to mention also, that even if WebZip is sharewhare its fully functional for 30 days as it says, without being annoying with various messages or less capabilities e.t.c.
Cons: Now bad things:
First its really slow, maybe that?s why many users think that it crashes, it is so slow that you don?t expect that it is still working and at the same time there is no obvious indication that it is still working!
Second, it downloads tones of ***** and double entries.
Last and most important it doesn?t download the whole stuff! Talking for me, I had to check which parts of the web site didn?t download and download them again!
If WebZip solve these problems it would be certainly a worth to buy offline browser.
