    Or WinZip. I work for a company that literally has the licenses for every computer they own. Why? 7-zip is free.

      I could think of stronger password protection options. Maybe some kind of UI. Maybe a way to certify creators of the zip so they can filter out malicious zips in emails. I dont know what WinZip offers but company compliance is a goldmine.

        Yup. The ability or willingness of a software maker to remove or agree to an indemnification clause is sometimes of paramount importance for some organizations.

        It’s sank more than a few promising projects at my org.
