Our commitment
Independent research methodology
Our researchers use a mix of verified reviews, independent research, and objective methodologies to bring you selection and ranking information you can trust. While we may earn a referral fee when you visit a provider through our links or speak to an advisor, this has no influence on our research or methodology.
Verified user reviews
GetApp maintains a proprietary database of millions of in-depth, verified user reviews across thousands of products in hundreds of software categories. Our data scientists apply advanced modeling techniques to identify key insights about products based on those reviews. We may also share aggregated ratings and select excerpts from those reviews throughout our site.
Our human moderators verify that reviewers are real people and that reviews are authentic. They use leading tech to analyze text quality and to detect plagiarism and generative AI.
How GetApp ensures transparency
GetApp lists all providers across its website—not just those that pay us—so that users can make informed purchase decisions. GetApp is free for users. Software providers pay us for sponsored profiles to receive web traffic and sales opportunities. Sponsored profiles include a link-out icon that takes users to the provider’s website.

CompareDesk overview
What is CompareDesk?
CompareDesk is a desktop application for Windows and macOS that compares two or more versions of a document and shows every change. It runs on the user's own computer; document content is not uploaded to a server.
Supported formats include Word documents, PDF files, scanned PDFs and spreadsheets in XLSX, XLSM, XLS, ODS and CSV. For the legacy formats DOC and RTF, Microsoft Word or, alternatively, LibreOffice is required. Scanned documents without a text layer are opened up by means of text recognition that runs entirely on the user's computer.
Every comparison produces a report with a SHA-256 checksum and a signed comparison record, so that the result can be verified at a later date. Batch comparison processes several file pairs in a single run.
System requirements are Windows 10 version 1809 or later or Windows 11 (64-bit), and macOS 12 or later on Macs with Apple Silicon.
CompareDesk is developed and published by AIXI Digital GmbH, Vienna, Austria.
