Battle Haozip vs Bandizip vs 7-Zip

[LAGUN]

Which one is better? why?

 

[Icy]

7-zip blows them out of the water. It's lighter, easier to use and it's compression ratio is also high.

 

[software182]

but none of them support the rar5 archive, right ?

 

[Oxygen]

7-Zip is by far the best, I've not even tried any of the rest you listed.

 

[Myna]

Haven't tried the others, but I think 7-Zip would be better. I've used it for quite a long time and its rocks. Its light, fast and compression ratio is awesome.

PS- I moved on from 7-Zip to WinRAR and WinZip as most of the official documents that I get are compressed with either the latest version of WinZip or WinRAR. But I still LOVE 7-Zip <3

Both 7-Zip competitors look sexy, but 7-Zip is tested, stable and good enough.

I am not sure if any of them are better as each one of them is doing exactly the same, but then in a different way.
Personally i would take winrar and secondly winzip and if both are not available then 7-zip is great.

Bandizip can open and extract RAR5 archive formats for free.
B1 Free Archiver has added RAR5 support to their Android version and soon will add it to their Windows version.

HaoZip (Chinese version) fully supports RAR5 archive formats, hopefully will be added to the English version.

7-Zip hasn't been updated since (2010-11-18), the project is pretty much dead now.
Most of the development is now done by PeaZip project which uses 7-Zip open-source code.

I personally like HaoZip better because it supports many features not offered in others for free.

Enjoy!!

Question, please! Which one work great with Windows 8.1 X64 Bits Operating System?

Personally, I am using Power Archiver but I prefer 7 zip because it is really light and has very great compression ratio.

 

[woomera]

i have put all of them inc couple of others like peazip but performance wise 7Zip basically trash them out.

I use Bandizip on my Windows 8.1x64 laptop and it works perfectly even has a x64 version.
I haven't tried any others on Windows 8.1.

Enjoy!!

It's only featured in the Chinese version.

I like Peazip, albeit there are some issues such as freezes when adding files to an archive. It has a native 64-bit program, which is good. 7-zip has the same issue as peazip as it pertains to adding multiple files to an archive. And it has been updated but its an alpha version, which was release December 2013.

Littlebits,

Thank you for your insight and information.

 

[DaZa9]

I used the three mentioned, but personally I prefer Haozip because (as @Littlebits said.) and also I like their Image viewer.

 

[Ink]

After reading this, I'm tempted to try an alternate to 7-Zip.

 

[RmG152]

I use bandizip, but Haozip looks well.
