DeltaWalker '08 Reviewsolid product great feature set - Version: 1.8.1, 8/11/2008 09:08PM PST

I've been using Beyond Compare on the PC side for several years but now have a need to do file/folder comparison in Mac OSX. A simple folder comparison program has been essential when using multiple computers and data backup destinations. DeltaWalker has a clean user interface allowing simple comparisons and file updating between folders on different disks. I use mostly manual file comparisons so that I am aware of file changes, but I'm also finding that the synchronization tools are very useful. I've also been very satisfied with tech support in solving setup problems and recommend it to users who do cross platform computing.

I am testing the 30-day trial version (downloaded here) and was put off by the windows-like feel at the beginning. After a few minutes though, you really appreciate the simple way the program works. (And though it may be windows inspired it's at least not ugly, if that matters)

If you have large chunks of data and need to compare folders and even MOVE or sync folders, I have found this to do the job reliably and quickly (scanning 1200 files / 100 GB in a few seconds). Folders / Files that are identical are greyed out in the scan result list, different files / folders are bold. A double click reveals their differences (ie in text files).

I shall report back and update this review if I run into serious problems, but at the moment, I look forward to weeding through a few hundred GB of data before archiving it with this software.

DeltaWalker is an all around excellent application. Being able to synchronize folders and compare/edit files using the same application saves me time and makes my life easier. The user interface is well thought, clean, and straightforward making a functionality rich application easy to use.
It further impresses with attention to detail: cool graphics and use of color, even animation. The file comparison is second to none with its merging capabilities, quickdiffs and 3-way comparison. The folder comparison is very good, with powerful filters and search capabilities.
