Tera Copy Pro 2 Beta 2.2

December 18, 2007

Hey, geeks out there! This is really geekalicious. Read on!!

Tera copy has released its next iteration but it is in beta, But still it works pretty fast. The developer has added some cool features to voice out here.

1. Now, systems can be shutdown once the copying has been done. It shows a default time of 5 minutes. It would have been nice if it could be customized according to the time, say, 30 seconds or 1 minute. .

2. Now the files can be prioritized which has to be copied first after adding to the Tera copy list as well. You can get the reports as well.

3. Three modes of tera copy is continued even in this iteration.
a. Compact Mode
b. Full Mode
c. Caption Mode

It would have been much more nice if they have added another mode; well, you figured it, System tray (hide it).

4. Now, we can save reports of the things we copied. It is especially becomes handy for all the systems administrators.
Since it is in beta, I think all the features are available but once if it comes out of beta
then it may not have all the features in the free edition.

But it is still worth to purchase this little geekalicious software.

5. These are put up on the Tera Copy’s website :

  • Select files with the same extension/same folder
  • Remove selected files from the copy queue
  • Get free updates and priority support

6. James Harrow has done the job well. I would like to share some of the features to be added to this nifty software.
a. One feature has been removed from the previous version viz to increase or decrease buffer.
b. Add the feature to generate HTML reports as well which would be an added advantage for all the Systems Administrators who are going to use it.
c. Very little help is available about Directory Opus. Please give more help so other newbies to get acquainted with this cool things it does.
d. Add the MD5 hashing algorithm and also display the MD5 characters.
e. Earlier it used to copy and test the things simultaneously. I think that feature has been removed. Please do add it.
