Disk Xray

All-in-one analyzer, duplicate finder, uninstaller, and shredder.

+ Disk Xray: Points forts

  • Bundles analyzer, duplicates, uninstaller, and shredder in one app
  • Free tier covers basic scanning
  • Guided cleanup suits users who want decisions made for them

- Disk Xray: Points faibles

  • Subscription pricing for full features where rivals charge once
  • Analyzer view is list-led rather than a rich visual map
  • All-in-one scope means each tool is shallower than a specialist

GrandPerspective

The tiny open-source treemap that shows your biggest files instantly.

+ GrandPerspective: Points forts

  • Free and open source with a tiny footprint
  • Treemap rectangles make the single biggest space hog obvious
  • Fast rescans and a loyal power-user community

- GrandPerspective: Points faibles

  • Treemap UI is utilitarian — no sunburst, no guided cleanup
  • No collector tray or duplicate finder; deletion is file-by-file
  • Development pace is slow compared with commercial rivals
