“PicoZip is a program for working with and creating compressed files that has a clean, intuitive interface. I found the program very easy-to-use and that makes it perfect for both new and experienced users. It has a number of interesting features that put it a step above many other compression programs, at least to me. For example, it makes it extremely easy to do backups. At the same time it can also integrate with your email, work in batch mode, and convert from a wide variety of compression formats. I’ve looked at a lot of similar programs and found this one to be more appealing than most. … So, if you’re looking for a program for working with compressed files, take a good look at PicoZip — very well done!”

“PicoZip offers a convenient Explorer-style window, showing you all the archive files in the highlighted directory and displaying the contents in a separate pane; much easier than browsing all files, picking out the one you need from non-archive file types and then opening it in an entirely separate window. Favorite organization is head and shoulders above the competition as well, which comes in handy for those of us who compress lots of files.”

“PicoZip provides superior compressed file format control and manageability that will definitely appeal to those heavily involved in working with these types of files. … While the more advanced capabilities of PicoZip may not be that relevant to those new to working with file compression utilities, I think those who depend on these utilities for a major part of their work will definitely want to give serious consideration to this powerful, user-friendly program that is packed with power and priced very competitively.”

“You owe it to yourself, if you aren’t using PicoZip already, to give it a spin. I stress the point that I seriously doubt you’ll be disappointed. Some compression apps just aren’t worth buying because most have alternatives that are free. Well, PicoZip has stability and features that you will just not be able to find in a freely produced utility. A big kudos to Softchitect for producing an excellent grade product!”

“PicoZip integrates right into the windows shell and allows you to open almost any type of archive you can think of. Password protection, archive repair and Uuencode tools are only a mouse click away. The software also makes your archive contents more viewable with the use of filters and an easy-sorting system. … This program features one of the nicest integrations of the windows explorer I have seen in a compression program.”

“Novices will love how easy this program is to use. The wizard will guide you through each process. If you run into any trouble you can always open up the help file. Hey man, even the advanced features are simple to understand and use. This is one program made to make your life much, much easier. It’s got integrated e-mail support and batch operations that’ll help make repetitive tasks quick and painless. Heck, you can even set it up to handle routine backups automatically!”

“This file compression tool is more user friendly than Winzip, WinRar and WinAce put together. … I will never use another file compression utility. PicoZip has outdone some of the best utilities out there. Why would you download and install all those different programs, when PicoZip will do it all, and then some. PicoZip really is the best way to manage Zip files.”

“PicoZip is a great program, it has a clean interface, and incorporates a lot of options not seen in other archive programs. The ability to access more than one archive format is key since people do not want to download more than one program to open a different archive format. …
This program is filled with a lot of great features and for those who do backup their files on a regular basis, would be thrilled by what PicoZip has to offer”

I’ve been working as a programmer for over 2 decades now… And at some point, while writing code for work, I started signing it with PICOZIP (stands for Pico Zapata Intellectual Property, I thought it was funny).
