I own several other archive managers and my reasoning for using iArchiver over the others are as follows:
1. Simplicity - double click simple
2. Function - you can migrate/convert archive types with drag and drop ease
3. It Just Works - like a Mac app should, transparent and seamless
4. Full Featured - I still have to take it through its paces with segmented rar files, but it supports most of the formats you’ll come across
5. Price - I bought it on a promo deal (MacUpdate or MacZot, I can’t remember); even at its full price its very reasonable for what it does.
About the only thing I could ask for in a future release would be CD/DVD burning support and the ability to compress and segment files for the purposes of CD/DVD burning (like Toast will do for files/folders).

sjogroon the mac platform however, it seems impossible for software developers to come up with a decent piece of software that does just that. maybe mac programmers are too creative, i don't know. i've been looking for the ultimate app eversince and still haven't found the perfect soulmate, maybe it's the lack of native commandline apps that limits the makers, maybe its a license/rights issue.
anyway, closest to perfect so far seems to be iArchiver, and i've tried a bunch; stuffit: crap, stay away from my mac! / unarchiver: love it but has certain annoyances / betterzip: interface pisses me off / unrarx: too specialised and therefor incomplete for the most common tasks.
the things at which iArchiver excells are simple to point out:
1. It can compress and decompress!
2. it supports a shitload of filetypes for decompression! (zip/sit/rar/ace/7z/ and more...)
3. it even looks nice, like a mac app, actually.
