Beyond Compare is a software for Windows that helps users compare different folders with each other based on numerous criteria.
Comparison
The utility provides comprehensive inspections when it comes to finding additions, deletions and modifications in directories. In other words, users can drag and drop data of various formats to view their similarities and differences. It is possible to check videos, audios, images, archives, documents and whole storage spaces.
Moreover, there is merge functionality which allows you to combine changes from two versions of the file into one. This way, you can detect and resolve conflicts, especially when it comes to text-based docs and programming code. Another highlight of the program is folder synchronization meaning you are able to mirror directories and update data between desired locations.
Narrow down
