WinZip is useful as it’s ubiquitous, files can be unzipped by anyone, which makes it a good tool to manage and email large files. Of course, it’s also useful to be able to zip them to store them in the Cloud, especially if you have the free versions and have much less storage space. It also allows you to carry multiple files on SD cards or USB drive or even your tablet.nThis version of WinZip connects directly to Dropbox, Google Drive etc so you can use it to organize all your cloud files at once. A password can be set for encrypted files for security.

It also converts files to PDF, a useful feature for me, I have been using the free PrimoPDF so far. It can also create a read only PDF that is useful for things like resumes. I have only tried it with Microsoft office files so far.

Overall, useful but also a little glitchy, if I did not have large files to compress I would keep using the free version.
