PeaZip features a powerful archive browser with search and history features for intuitive navigation in archive's content, and allows to apply fine-grained multiple exclusion and inclusion filter rules to the archive. PeaZip allows to create, edit and restore archive's layout for speeding up archiving or backup operation's definition.

The program can also handle multiple archives at once; export job definition as command line; create detailed job log; encrypt, split and join files and compress executables with strip/UPX, benchmark the system and wipe files (secure file deletion).

Interesting new software: it has a striking uncommon kind of interface for an archiver, simple to use but very flexible also for advanced archiving/backup tasks.
The native archive format has interesting features too (mainly security and integrity focused), however many other format whidely used are supported like zip, tar, 7z... making it a nice choice for a really alternative archiving software.
