Research finds ezyZip leads browser-based archive tools with 140+ format support

FREMANTLE, Western Australia (December 2025) - A new research paper evaluating browser-based archive file managers has found that ezyZip significantly outperforms competitors in format support, privacy protection, and feature depth.

The study, titled "A Comparative Analysis of Browser-Based Archive File Managers", examined ten online archive extraction services and three desktop applications. The evaluation covered format support, processing architecture, privacy implications, and unique functionality through direct testing, source code analysis, and documentation review.

Key Findings

ezyZip supports over 140 archive formats through 18 proprietary WebAssembly modules. Competitors averaged just 25 supported formats. The next closest browser-based tool supports approximately 70 formats.

The research identified several format categories where ezyZip stands alone among browser-based tools:

- Minecraft packages (.mcpack, .mcworld, .mcaddon, .mctemplate)
- Comic book archives (.cbr, .cbz, .cba)
- Mobile application packages (.ipa, .apk, .aab, .xapk)
- Gaming console disc images (.wbfs, .gcz, .wia)
- Regional formats from Korea (.alz, .egg) and Japan (.lzh)
- Retro computing archives from Amiga and Commodore systems

Privacy-First Architecture

Unlike server-based alternatives that require file uploads, ezyZip processes all files locally in the user's browser. The research noted that some server-based services retain uploaded files for up to 24 hours, while others keep files for seven days.

"Client-side processing eliminates these concerns by keeping files on the user's device throughout the operation," the researchers wrote.

Features Found Only in ezyZip

The study identified several capabilities unique to ezyZip among browser-based archive tools:

- Corrupted archive repair using ZipRec and 7z recovery algorithms
- Multi-archive merging with intelligent duplicate handling
- Peer-to-peer file sharing via WebRTC
- Direct filesystem saving through the File System Access API
- Multi-layer fallback system for failed extractions

User Sentiment

ezyZip publishes all user feedback publicly at ratings.ezyzip.com/ratings, allowing anyone to read individual reviews. This transparency is rare among browser-based archive tools, where most competitors do not make user feedback publicly accessible.

The platform has collected over 33,000 submissions from users in more than 50 countries, with an overall rating of 4.1 out of 5 stars. Common themes in positive feedback include ease of use, no installation requirements, and reliable performance across file types.

Platform Maturity

ezyZip has operated continuously since 2009. The researchers concluded that this 15-year development history accounts for the platform's handling of edge cases and format variations that newer tools miss.

"The findings highlight the importance of implementation maturity in tool selection," the paper states. "While open-source libraries have democratised archive tool development, robust handling of real-world files requires sustained attention to edge cases and format variations."
