"A Fantastic File/Storage Management Tool"

5/5

What do you like best about DaisyDisk?

Beautiful user interface and it just makes sense. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DaisyDisk?

It's quite hard for me to pin down what I dislike about daisy disk. It's very no-nonsense. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering DaisyDisk:

Just take the plunge and buy it. I actually think it's free, or at least was for a while. It's well worth the price! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DaisyDisk solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's great for quickly finding storage on one of my drives that I can delete and free up space. It makes hunting for deletable (that's a made up word, but all words are made up) files incredibly easy, and dare I say enjoyable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Functional"

3.5/5

What do you like best about DaisyDisk?

This app did exactly what I needed it to when I needed it to. It gave me a clear picture of where my drives were at which allowed me to find the files that were causing issues due to their size. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DaisyDisk?

I don't really have any complaints. It ran a little slow the first time I used it but that was likely the computer and not the software since I was having issues with file sizes. A cloud service had synced files but unfortunately one had very large video files in it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DaisyDisk solving and how is that benefiting you?

Through the team cloud-based file sharing, this computer had pulled down some very large files when it was connected to the could. Unfortunately, this meant that we needed to find the files that were the culprit. This allowed us to identify the biggest file first so that we could start speeding up again.

"Very easy to use. You decide what to delete"

5/5

What do you like best about DaisyDisk?

Daisy Disk uses an infographic to quickly depict where your storage is used. You are able to identify and delete those files you deem unnecessary from within Daisy Disk. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DaisyDisk?

It might be useful if hidden files are automatically revealed and disclosed as hidden files so care would be taken in deleting those files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Essential Tool for Mac Users"

4.5/5

There is only one view.. it would be nice to integrate alternative view to see for example file types.. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simple Disk Space Management"

5/5

What do you like best about DaisyDisk?

DaisyDisk provides a clean, easy to understand UI as a gateway to understanding where your disk space is being used. The coloration of the differing file types, the pie-chart breakdown that is also arranged in a hierarchy of folders is at once complex, but simply understood. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DaisyDisk?

I would like to see some improvement in the ability to actually delete purgeable files. While I have no problem deleting most files/folders from within the UI, for some reason I'm never able to delete what the system marks as purgeable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering DaisyDisk:

Make it a point to read through the online manual of the app. Also, recognize that DaisyDisk isn't a "disk cleaning utility", as much as it is a disk usage visualization utility. It shows you how your space is being utilized to make a user better informed in regards to how they might optimize their storage. While you absolutely can use it to remove files, it's first priority and what it does so well is education about disk usage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DaisyDisk solving and how is that benefiting you?

As the person responsible for backups, disk management, and helping other members of our office understand their systems, the visualization of where disk space "goes" has been tremendously helpful. By showing other employees how the use of external media for storage of large files improves the performance of their system, we've managed to improve a lot of our productivity for disk intensive read/write tasks.

"Epic File Management "

5/5

What do you like best about DaisyDisk?

I love how fast I can identify large files that are taking up disk space. We run a ton of video and graphic projects through our marketing department. Caches, render file folders, and application files can grow out of control fast. DaisyDisk is perfect for quickly identifying problem and hidden bulk for cleanup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DaisyDisk?

Honestly there is not a lot of downside to DaisyDisk. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Daisy Disk great for clean up"

5/5

What do you like best about DaisyDisk?

I really appreciate how the program is designed to break down your different file types, where they're found and the name so you can see what you're cleaning up. The interface looks good and easy to understand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DaisyDisk?

Because of how detailed it is it can get overwhelming if you're impatient, but other than that great tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
