Beyond Compare 3 is the ideal tool for
comparing files and folders on your Windows system. Visualize changes in
your code and carefully reconcile them.
- Compare Files, Folders
Beyond Compare allows you to
quickly and easily compare your files and folders. By using simple,
powerful commands you can focus on the differences you're interested in
and ignore those you're not. You can then merge the changes,
synchronize your files, and generate reports for your records.
- Specialized Viewers
Beyond Compare includes built-in
comparison viewers for a variety of data types. Compare .csv data or
HTML tables in a Data Compare session, or images in a Picture Compare
session.
- 3-way Merge
- Beyond Compare's new merge view allows you to combine changes from two versions of a file into a single output. Its intelligent approach allows you to quickly accept most changes while carefully examining conflicts.
