IZArc is my go-to for handling odd formats like ISO or old RAR files that other free archivers stumble on, and its conversion feature is genuinely useful. However, I've had a few instances where it crashed on very large archives, and the interface, while functional, feels a bit dated compared to some modern alternatives. For the price (free), it's incredibly powerful, but it requires a bit of patience.

IZArc has been my go-to archiving tool for years. It handles every format I've ever thrown at it, from standard ZIP files to disc images like ISO, without any fuss. The interface is straightforward, and features like encryption and splitting large archives are incredibly useful. For a free and open-source tool, it's impressively powerful and reliable.

I've used IZArc for years, but the latest version has been nothing but trouble. The interface feels clunky now, and it frequently crashes when extracting large RAR archives. For a tool I rely on daily for work, this level of unreliability is a dealbreaker. I'm actively looking for a replacement.

As someone who deals with a mishmash of old RAR files, new ZIPs, and disc images, IZArc has been a lifesaver. It's incredibly intuitive to use—right-clicking to extract or create an archive feels seamless. The fact that it handles so many formats, including ISO and 7z, without costing a dime is outstanding value.

I needed a reliable tool to handle everything from simple ZIP files to extracting tricky RAR archives and mounting ISO images. IZArc does all that without any fuss. The interface is straightforward, and it's never crashed on me, even with large files. For a free tool, it's incredibly capable and has completely replaced the built-in Windows compression for me.

IZArc's huge format support is a lifesaver and the price is right. However, the user interface looks and feels like it's from a decade ago, which sometimes makes simple tasks less intuitive. It's my reliable fallback for weird archive types, but I don't reach for it first for everyday zipping.

I've been using IZArc for years to handle all my archive needs, from simple ZIP files to extracting tricky ISO or RAR downloads. It's incredibly easy to use, handles just about every format I've thrown at it, and the ability to convert between archive types is a lifesaver. For a free, no-nagware tool, it's packed with features that rival paid software.

IZArc handles every format I throw at it, from old RAR files to disc images, which is fantastic. However, the interface hasn't aged well and feels clunky compared to modern alternatives. It's incredibly powerful for a free tool, but the user experience holds it back from being excellent.
