Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It supports so many programming languages and you can even import others. You can customize so many things, from the UI to the comparison rules of a particular language. You can integrate it with basically all the source control tools available. You can even compare folder structures or raw data files, not just source code.

Cons

  • Text editing features are not quite up to par as the comparison features. It does not have text select by column. There is no search window, which would be better, it's just a tool bar.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Free & Open source. Lightweight app. Easy to understand visualization - 3 pane comparisons and more. Highly customizable editor. Supports multiple languages and file formats. Plugin support for enhanced functionality. Available on windows and on linux via Wine.

Cons

  • Doesn't have the feature to generate diff reports. No native app for Linux.
