dupeGuru - Fast and efficient duplicate finder
Duplicate files are hard to locate, which is why you should always use a specialized application. In this case, dupeGuru is a good choice if you wish to find and remove duplicates quickly and without too much effort. It is capable of identifying files that are perfect clones of others or files that are just similar, according to your needs. The application is available for numerous Mac OS X versions and for Windows and Linux systems and it is absolutely free.
dupeGuru can look for duplicates on the entire disk or in specific folders and it can also compare the contents from two or more sources. All you have to do is add these folders to a list, on the application's compact user interface and hit a Scan button. The results are listed as pairs of duplicates to make them easier to spot. Besides the name of the files, you will also find the name of their parent folders, their size and a matching percentage.
The results list can be filtered using keywords, but you can also select an option to display nothing but duplicates, so you can make sure that you won't target any of the original files by mistake. Once your selection is complete, you may choose from a variety of actions, like moving the marked items to the trash, moving or copying them to another location and others.
As previously suggested, dupeGuru is not limited to finding identical files. It can also identify files that are only similar to others, by comparing their contents, rather than their names or parent folders. You can increase or decrease the filter hardness in the general settings menu, where you can find other useful customization controls. Setting the application to ignore files that are smaller than a certain value, or using regular expressions when filtering are just a few examples.
Pros:
You can locate and remove duplicate files without too much effort. Besides locating identical files, the application can also identify items that are similar to others. It comes with various customization controls, which are easy to find and use.
Cons:
There are no obvious issues to mention.
With dupeGuru's straightforward and efficient functionality, locating and removing duplicate files doesn't involve anything more than a few clicks.

dupeGuru Editor's Review
dupeGuru is a file application that can search and display duplicate files on your hard drive.dupeGuru is the general application for these kind of jobs, issued by this producer. I also tested dupeGuru Music Edition, and dupeGuru Picture Edition which are very good applications for their particular cases. The particular applications are better for the dedicated jobs, but if you need a universal application, then dupeGuru is for you.
From the performance point of view, dupeGuru is somewhere between the previously tested applications. It works very fast with medium sized directories, in the same way as dupeGuru Music Edition works, but it gets stuck if you add huge directories, in the same way as dupeGuru Picture Edition does.

The interface provides you quick access to the list of scan directories, some various functions, and a nice button which can start the whole scanning process. The 'Preferences' pane is also simple, and in provides just a few features which can customize the number of scan results.
With the report list you can do various actions such as moving, deleting or copying the duplicate files, or you can do tasks like opening the files with a selected application.
If you're looking for advanced features, then the application has them. For example the 'Actions' menu allows you to do a lot more than you can do from the interface and the contextual menus.
Pluses: it gives you the possibility to search and remove the duplicate files; it provides advanced statistics; it provides advanced file information; it has an easy to use interface while it provides some advanced functionality in the program's menus.
Drawbacks / flaws: it gets stuck when trying to process large sized directories.
