Beyond Compare
Compare, merge, and synchronize files and folders with ease

Beyond Compare is a file and folder comparison tool developed by Scooter Software that runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux. It allows users to compare text, binary, image, and data files, merge changes from multiple versions, and synchronize local data with FTP sites or cloud storage. It integrates with version control systems and supports scripting for automated tasks.
Users open files or folders in Beyond Compare, which intelligently highlights differences and lets them accept, reject, or merge changes through a visual interface or automated scripts.
