Beyond Compare MAC & Linux 已不支援繁中版
Beyond Compare 是一套優秀的專業級檔案內容及資料匣（目錄）的文件比對工具，並內建了檔案瀏覽器，方便您針對檔案、檔案匣、壓縮包、FTP網站之間的差異比對及資料同步。可以很方便的對比出兩個檔夾或者檔的不同之處。並把相差的每一個位元組用顏色加以表示，查看方便。並且支援多種規則對比。
Beyond Compare allows you to quickly and easily compare your files and folders. By using simple, powerful commands you can focus on the differences you're interested in and ignore those you're not. You can then merge the changes, synchronize your files, and generate reports for your records.
You can compare entire drives and folders at high speed, checking just sizes and modified times. Or, thoroughly verify every file with byte-by-byte comparisons. FTP sites and zip files are integrated seamlessly, so you can update your website with the touch of a button.
Once you've found specific files you're interested in, Beyond Compare can intelligently pick the best way to compare and display them. Text files can be viewed and edited with syntax highlighting and comparison rules tweaked specifically for documents, source code, and HTML. The text contents of Microsoft Word .doc and Adobe .pdf files can also be compared but not edited. Data files, executables, binary data, and images all have dedicated viewers as well, so you always have a clear view of the changes.
