New to this version is the ability to work with Open Office XML files (OOMXL) and Zip Archives. Now you can compare each of these types of files with the same ease as you can with text or directory of files.
DiffDog 2008 is a product that can be used by anyone who manages files and their changes, though this is foremost within the software design and development world. DiffDog 2008 is available from Altova for $149. It is also part of the combination MissionKits that are also available. Still unsure, you can download a 30-day trial version as well.
There is not much of a learning curve to using DiffDog, but if you need some help there is online help as well as a PDF User and Reference manual that is over 140 pages in length. If you spend a lot of time trying to figure out which files have changed, or what is the difference between individual files, then I think that DiffDog 2008 is for you.
