Simplyzip Review
Simplyzip is a file compression application for Windows that supports a variety of archive formats. It also provides advanced encrypting capabilities.
Featuring a user-friendly interface, Simplyzip provides an easy to use Free Software alternative to WinRar and similar proprietary applications. Its Windows context menu integration, Drag&Drop support for both extraction and archiving/compression, and full Windows Explorer integration make it an ideal file manager for personal and professional users alike.
A powerful archiving application, supporting all major archive formats (including ZIP, CZIP, ACE, CAB, RAR, TAR, GZIP, LZH, BZ2, SQX, RS, UUE, XXE, RPM, DEB, 7-ZIP, SQX,UCL, ARJ, ZLIB, ALIB and Base64), as well as CD, DVD, VCD, BD and NRG disc-images.
The program is completely FREE for personal and commercial use, and can be used on a single machine or by multiple users at the same time. It does not require a product key or serial number, has no expiration date or trial limitation and does not store any traces on your PC.
The program has an extensive range of specialized features including dedicated utilities to fix corrupt ZIP and ACE archives, create backup copies, span zip files, set passwords and many more. Its encrypting abilities are quite decent as well, using industry strength encryption technologies. The only drawback is the fact that the interface can be a bit confusing for beginners. It's not as feature-rich as some of the other free applications we've seen lately, but it's still a decent tool that should be sufficient to satisfy most users.
