Cisdem Duplicate Finder vs Duplicate Files Fixer

Cisdem Duplicate Finder detects duplicate files and visually similar photos on macOS and Windows. It compares file contents rather than filenames, covering images, documents, songs, videos, archives, and duplicate folders. For photos, it can identify burst shots, edited or resized versions, and pictures taken from different angles or in different lighting. The maker says this photo analysis runs entirely on the device without uploading files to a cloud or server. Results can be previewed in three modes, then sorted, searched, and filtered. Users can remove duplicates permanently, move them to Recycle Bin or Trash, or place them in a selected folder. Supported locations and services include external drives and SD cards, iTunes and Apple Music, Mac Photos, OneDrive, Dropbox, Google Drive, and iCloud. The trial can scan, preview, locate, and hide duplicates, but cannot delete all selected duplicates with one click. One-time individual licenses cost $39.99 as a one-time purchase for one Mac or one PC; one-year subscriptions cost $19.99 a year. Business licenses cost $54.99 as a one-time purchase for one computer.

Duplicate Files Fixer scans computers, external drives, and cloud storage for duplicate photos, videos, music, documents, and other files. It can compare file contents as well as names, size, creation and modification dates, and similar names, so identical files can be detected even when their names differ. Users can preview grouped results and choose what to delete; Auto Mark selects extra copies while leaving one in each group unmarked. Folder exclusions are available. On Windows, it can scan Google Drive and Dropbox after sign-in and folder selection. The free version scans unlimited files and removes up to 15 duplicates in one go; additional deletions must be made one at a time. The paid version removes all marked duplicates in one click. It is listed for Android, macOS, and Windows. The paid plan is €35.95 a year, billed annually at a discounted price; the page also lists €64.95 as the product price. PC deletions go to the Recycle Bin by default, but USB and network-drive deletions do not.
