“I LOVE File Buddy. I've had a license for quite a while (probably early version 6)… Your application is a reference in the area. Really a must have tool!!!!!”

— Corentin Cras-Méneur

“The moment I saw the great work you've done on the FB 8 beta, I sent in my credit card payment for the upgrade. Thanks so much for putting in the time to make FB cleaner and so much more useable. I especially appreciate the Viewer feature and the renaming changes, both of which I'd been wishing for over the past few years.”

— Rob Pollack

— Peter G. Neaman
