(Based on 0.75) This software is just great! Ok, maybe (yet!) it's not the NUMBER of features that sets it apart from WE, but it's simplicity. The use of tabbed windows and bookmarks make it so, so much easier to use than WE. You will be able to do your every day work - copying, moving, managing and files - so much faster and easier, and the Bookmarks makes it quick and easy to get to your favourite folders and files. Add to this that it is extremely simple to learn and has a beautiful and very intuitive interface. I have tried other file managers out there, but unless you want some advanced functions, this is clearly the best. And what is not there might come soon; the forum is excellent, and you are able to see the progress - requests are handled very fast, and new features are soon to come, including a QuickView function. The only reason why I don't give an overall 5 stars is because its still so new. 3 stars are far too low! Absolutely one of my favourite programs!

I personally think this app should have had a rating of excellent from snapfiles, but whatever.
It is not only a replacement for windows explorer, BUT, it has an integrated notepad type of thing, tabbed windows, and my favorite part of it is that I can set bookmarks. I build web sites, so I have a bookmark called "webs", which, when clicked, shows me all my web folders. Kinda like creating a shortcut to the webs folder on your desktop, but without the clutter. all in all, this is a cool app and deserving of the DL.

After testing almost all freeware and several shareware file managers, I ended up with CubicExplorer, and I like it. True, it doesn't have a lot of "extras", but it has some features which make life a lot easier. Especially the layout, buttons for copy, paste, delete, right on top of the file-tree, work very fast and well. The fact that it has "thumbnail view" actually puts it in a category shared with only a few other freeware file managers.

Cubic Explorer is a good alternative to Windows Explorer. Actually, it's superior to Explorer in a number of ways. First, you can actually navigate your disks via tabs. Second, you can create permanent bookmarks to your favorite folders on your drives, something that really speeds up file navigation big-time. On top of all of that, Cubic Explorer contain all of Explorer's most important functions and feature -- all in a very good-looking interface. The only problem that I had with Cubic Explorer involves navigating on a LAN. Cubic Explorer would occasionally come to a grinding halt and freeze when trying to navigate LAN directories. Still, if you don't need to navigate a LAN, Cubic Explorer is a faster, more efficient, and less resource-hungry way to navigate your local disks than is Explorer. It's well worth a try!
