The following review written by one of the Software Informer contributors applies to version 3.1
DiskBoss is much more than just a disk space analysis program, as it also allows locating file duplicates, viewing all kinds of file classifications, performing file synchronization and data migration tasks, monitoring disks and drives for changes, and many more.
Anyone can refer to it as to a complete disk manager without being wrong.

Compared to other tools of this kind, DiskBoss has a major advantage in the fact that its disk space analysis function offers very comprehensive and accurate results. Chart representations are also available, as well as access to basic file management functions (open, copy, move, delete). It represents a reliable solution to locate the largest files and folders from your drives and understand where your precious disk space is going.

The duplicate file finding feature is also one of the most important advantages of this program, as it provides accurate results and comes with a large variety of post-scanning options. It makes getting rid of duplicate files a fast and easy task.

I appreciate a lot the large number of features and tools that this application provides. Besides the aforementioned disk space analyzer and the duplicate file finder, it also includes file classification functions, a disk SMART viewer that lets you view the health status of your disks, file synchronization capabilities, rule-based file searching and organizing functions, etc.

Furthermore, I like a lot the fact that DiskBoss manages to offer a neat and intuitive interface despite the large number of features and functions that it includes. A nice touch is also the fact that the look and the layout of the interface can be changed with just one press of a button.

Pros

  • Includes a reliable duplicate file finder.
  • Allows performing comprehensive and accurate disk space analysis tasks.
  • Customizable interface layout.
  • Disk SMART data viewer.

Cons

  • The "Help" system is available only online.
