Disk Inventory X

The classic treemap visualizer, revived for Apple Silicon Macs.

＋ Disk Inventory X: Сильні сторони

  • Free and open source with decades of trust
  • Treemap plus file-type breakdowns in one window
  • Community revival builds run natively on Apple Silicon

－ Disk Inventory X: Слабкості

  • Interface shows its age despite the revival builds
  • No collector tray, previews, or modern sandbox handling
  • Fork landscape (X vs Xs vs Y) can confuse new users

SpaceLens

A bubble-map storage explorer inside the CleanMyMac suite.

＋ SpaceLens: Сильні сторони

  • Beautiful bubble-map view distinct from sunbursts and treemaps
  • One click from analysis to automated cleanup inside the suite
  • Backed by MacPaw's large support and update operation

－ SpaceLens: Слабкості

  • Requires the full CleanMyMac suite — no standalone purchase
  • Subscription push where single-purpose rivals charge once
  • Suite scope means deeper scans can feel like an upsell path
