iArchiver

Saved me loads of the time and blends right into MacOS

by: MikeCeo on 24-Apr-2008 02:03:39 PM

Pros: Since the latest update this has made it to the #1 spot for archiving on my Mac.
The new icon looks great in my dock, a lightweight and efficient interface, and the encryption support is a valuable time saver.
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...

by: aenemicions303 on 20-Apr-2008 01:54:22 AM

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.
