1) Firstly I think its easier to use but what do I know I havent used others besides winzip.
2) Lots or compression options like how I want to compress a particular file or split a file to different sizes. It helps because my company has a limit on email attachments so I need to split large files to smaller size.
3) Support self extracting archives with command line so I can create a self extracting .exe file that can install things quickly to a particular directory. Or execute bat files....
4) Might not be advantage for other people but most of my colleagues dont use winrar so they can't curi-curi tengok my files in case I forgot to password protect the .rar file.
5) Winrar also support the zip format so I dont need to install winzip when I want to open or create zip files for open distribution. I can also use a self extracting archive.
I think thats all for now....
Downside you need to license a copy to use Winrar its not free...
