Highly flexible and efficient defrag tool
You probably wonder why you need an extra defrag tool, if the operating system already includes one. The answer is that UltimateDefrag is much better than the standard Windows tool, so why resign yourself with a basic app what you can have a better one for free?
UltimateDefrag is a surprisingly fast defragmentation tool with a very intuitive interface and really interesting features. The program displays the structure of your hard drive as a circle that you can zoom in and out, and uses a customizable color code to represent the different status of your files: fragmented, compressed, free space, etc.
The best thing about UltimateDefrag is that it doesn't only defrag the whole drive: it also lets you defrag only certain files by using the program's embedded filters to select them according to their level of fragmentation, date, volatility or even name.
Like I said, the whole process is quite fast (though it obviously depends on your drive's size) and can be paused at any time. The program also includes a scheduling tool with which you can program defrags and leave your computer working while you're away.
UltimateDefrag is a fast defrag tool that lets you defragment the whole drive or user-specified files in a very easy way.

Mediocre.
Dreadfully slow. This thing has run for 24 hrs and is no where near finished. It is advertised as fast. I don't think so.

Not as good...
Perfect Disk is way ahead of this graphical eye-candied application. Just cause it 'looks' pretty and intensive, it is not.Try http://www.raxco.com/ More

Replaces all others.
This has got to be the best defrag utility ever created. It is filled with features and many new ways to defrag your drive. The program is built around the concept that "file placement" is more important than defraging files. It provides options to place the files you use frequently farthest to the outside of the drive and place unused files(such as zip files) to farthest inside of the drive. THis is a good option because the outside of the drive is faster than the inside. With the files you use frequently on the ouside, you most likely will notice a considerable improvement in computer startup and file loading. You can even place certain files and folders in order on the outside. Like to place the windows folder the closest to the outside of the disk to improve boot times then to have your games and documents placed rights after it to improves their times. Also don't forget the programs folder! It also includes a higly detailed(and long manual) describing how drive fragmentation happens and all the ideas to fix it. Definetly replaces all other defraggers and it may even be worth paying for their new 2008 verison of Ultimate Defrag. Definetly worth trying.
Pros:
-File placement
-schedules
-tons of defrag options(file recency, alphebetical order, consolidate)
-includes auto defrag(acceptable for most home users)
-includes simple defragmentation option for those not interested in file placement Cons:
-none so far More
