Existing users, 
Previous commenters have much the same opinion as I:
- UI a bit dated.
I used 2.2.0 forever before updating to this version. I found the old version quite reliable, and this one too... so far!
Regularly zip a 68MB (which deflates to 4.8MB) file to send to a WIN user of a cross platform program (MYOB). You can guess that this is very important data that, while password protected hasn't been compressed previously. So far Zipit has been flawless.
Oh yeah. The author is one of few still supporting OS 9. Kudos!
I'm downgrading my rating only on the basis of UI. Otherwise the pluses far outweigh the minuses:
+ Reliability
+ Compatibility
+ Ease of Use
+ Classic/legacy system support.

I found an issue with 2.2 which I reported. When making a .sea Windows file (self extracting archive) with ZipIt of a single file, in OS X 10.4.4 the program quits without making the file and gives no error. ZipIt works fine making a .zip file of the same exact file.Here is their response to my message to support email query:
