CNET EDITORS' REVIEW

Reviewed by: CNET staff on September 08, 2009

Limagito Lite occupies an odd position in the world of automated move/copy/delete utilities. Its many features and customization opportunities, including the ability to execute external commands, make it ideal for power users with complex file management needs. But this Lite version is limited in many ways--it supports only a single rule, for example, and does not support encryption or external scripts--making it an unlikely option for such users.

Still, as a complex advertisement for its single ($59.95) and corporate licenses (starting at $300), Limagito Lite does tantalize with visions of automating complex file-naming and management tasks across multiple locations. You start by creating a moving rule. For that rule, you may customize several settings, including source and destination, encryption and verification, and dozens of options pertaining to file handling. An additional tabbed interface offers scheduling, logging, and connectivity options, among others. The granularity of options is nearly overwhelming, but a clean UI with plenty of tool tips reduces the panic factor. The software comes with a 45-page Help file; sadly, this is located in a PDF file that you must find using the Windows Start menu. Moreover, the PDF's screenshots, while comprehensive, come from the sitewide version, and the images and features do not always match what is available in Limagito Lite.

Limago Lite offers an impressive array of features for moving, copying, and deleting files. Although a beginner user could find some use in Limago Lite, the breadth and depth of features make it better for advanced users.

PUBLISHER'S DESCRIPTION

From MoveIt2:

Limagito FileMover is used to move your files from anywhere to anywhere. This file mover automation tool can copy, move or delete files that are added to a specific folder. You can set file and directory filters based on the file name, date and size. Also rename, encrypt or decrypt files and rename directories (using regular expressions) when moving them to the new destination. Create directories based on the file name or date and check if the file already exists. The file-mover can move files from/to local folders as well as FTP, SFTP, FTPS directories and to SMTP. This software offers quite a few features that make the program very flexible and useful for a variety of file management tasks as well as file backups. Limagito runs in the system tray and automatically monitors the selected folders for any additions that match your file moving rules. You can set up as many working threads as wanted (Full Version), each with individual settings. Other features include detailed logging, support for subdirectory scanning, command-line options... The Single, Site and Corporate License edition can be used as application or service and is sold with a free update and upgrade License. Important: you need help setting up Limagito? Just ask.
