Whether you want to compare Word documents or PERL code, ExamDiff Pro loads any two files of your choice and shows you how they differ from each other.

Similar to its free cousin, but offering up many more options and customization, ExamDiff Pro displays the two files side by side, highlighting differences and allowing you to make changes on the fly. The app's handy interface offers several navigation schemes--buttons that take you to the previous or next change, a drop-down list of differences by line, or mouse functionality going directly to any line in either document.

What's more, if you open a subfolder or file in one directory, the program automatically compares it with the same item in the second. Files can be scrolled in tandem or separately, and there are numerous options for comparing items: looking at differences by line, word, or character; ignoring spaces; or only viewing similarities. Colors can be customized, and changes can be saved to one or both opened files. Output can be in Unix DIFF or HTML.

ExamDiff Pro should appeal to all levels of developers, from those just learning HTML to seasoned pros.

Best file and directory comparison program for Windows.
kwrzesienOctober 4, 2010
Pros
Recursive directory comparison. You can configure ExamDiff to scan every file of every sub-directory so that directories (and all contents) that are exactly the same show up differently than directories with any changes.
Cons
If you turn on full directory recursion you might want to enable most of the "quick-check" features for performance, unless you have a SSD! :)
Summary
A must have tool for all power Windows users.
An excellent buy, worth the money

Pros
Clear interface Great matching algorithms - very few major mismatches except when unavoidable Allows on-the-fly file editing
Cons
File editing sometimes introduces strange whitespace problems in my Python files (due to tab/space distinction) Occasionally very slow to open and select files/folders to compare (when browsing for files)
Summary
I've been using this at work, and it's been invaluable. It's saved me hours, and it'll be my goto whenever I have diffing needs, at work or at home.
The best tool for file comparison i've tried!
Nortonian29August 25, 2009
Pros
ExamDiff Pro is an excellent file comparison tool. After evaluating a number of other programs, and using ExamDiff for several years now, i've found it has the features, interface, and reliability that make it one of the tools i use on a daily basis!
Cons
There is NOTHING i don't like about this product!
Summary
ExamDiff Pro is one of those rare programs that simply works. It flawlessly compares any kind of files i throw at it, and the developers have designed an interface that is intuitive. The program is as reliable as the day is long. And one more thing - the support for this product is second to none. Whenever i've had any questions, the response has been instantaneous. ExamDiff is an excellent tool that does what it purports to do, with elegance and competence!
Fuzzy matching works really well

Summary

Very versatile comparison tool
carsten_paulJune 7, 2009
Pros
ExamDiff Pro is able to compare every file I've given it, from Word documents to HTML files, and display the results in a very easy-to-understand format.
Cons
I can't think of any!
Summary
Good 4 wrd txt sware src code, maintaining backups >USB
keithswareApril 21, 2009
Pros
Like being able to copy or plain edit text between two files being compared. Like also the ability to nest directory comparison through chain of sub directories, this saves a lot of time.
Cons
Nothing i dont like although the plug ins for office document comparisons could be improved. Developers spend time doing documentation, source code development & making backups of old projects. Last 2 points are fully covered, first needs some work.
Summary
I've been using this app for several months now, has never failed. Appears to be error free, is a pleasure to use and was worth every penny spent on it.
the best comparison tool for its prise
ewg_shaApril 15, 2009
Pros
comparison algorithm is good, mark difference up to characters, have plug-in to sort files before comparing, etc.
Cons

Summary
Great comparison tool
JackB73March 8, 2009
Pros
I've tried lots of different comparison programs, and ExamDiff Pro is the fastest and easiest to use in its price range. It has just about every features that I ever needed in a comparison tool.
Cons
I can't think of any.
Summary
Makes Version Control a Piece of Cake!!!
jseithOctober 1, 2008
Pros
No learning curve to get it up and running. It does everything it is supposed to do quickly. It's great, I use it at school for my research. I got hooked on it when everyone at at my internship was using it
Cons
It would be nice to be able to compare .doc files and other very common files and be able to filter out header and formatting info possibly.
Summary
Extremely useful, lightweight, and easy to use.
Most intuitive and quick difference viewer
antoniolunaSeptember 1, 2008
Pros
Very clear, compatibility with mouse wheel, flexible in the configuration, allows extremely large files to compare...
Cons
I can only think of better difference viewers just for specialized things, such as XML. For general use, code and text, ExamDiff is perfect.
Summary
I always recommend it to my colleagues.
