Power Soft Freebies Notes & Copernic Desktop Search

Hello,

I've stumbled across these two.
Any comments? Anyone used these?

coppernick is just another desktop search.

To be fair, unless something has changed, Copernic generally pulls in good reviews. I did have it installed a long time ago just to test it out. Personally I found the indexing to be a quite drawn out process, which apparently is something others have experienced as well. Other user reviews suggest this isn't a Universal experience and may even be something associated with the earlier versions.

As a home user, I could never really get my cpu cycles worth out of having a 3rd party indexing/search system onboard. Eventually I uninstalled it, simply because for me, it didn't earn it's keep on my system.

 

I tryed basically all the desktop search programs and most of them used alot of cpu.i found the yahoo one the best thou.
and the one that the yahoo one is based on called X1

was using copernic some 6 years ago

before I learned how to search

 

Good indexing software:
Locate32
Cathy

 

Been using Cathy for years

what's Locate32 offer that Cathy doesnt?

 

They are very similar. I prefer Cathy for removable drives and Locate32 for local drives.

 

I used to mod a software forum and used to say CATHY!!!
it the best around its, freeware and its been around forever
so.....
there hasnt been much point to other development

one thing never changes
my capacity to be wrong
