Araxis Merge

USD list price

Two-way side-by-side comparison of text files and folders with a split-view diff.

Entry price

US$129 one-time

Standard Edition perpetual licence covering both Windows and macOS, first year of support and upgrades included

None required — perpetual licence. After year one, support/upgrade entitlement is optionally renewable at US$29/year (Standard) or US$49/year (Professional)

Free tier

  • None — 30-day free trial only ('Try Free for 30 Days'), then a licence must be purchased.

Professional Edition is US$269.

What Araxis Merge does that free tools don't

  • Comparing text extracted from PDFs and office documents, plus binary and image comparison.
  • Folder synchronization on the local filesystem.
  • Three-way file and folder comparison and merging against a common ancestor with Git integration (Professional).

If you need these, Araxis Merge is worth paying for. Check the current plan on the vendor's pricing page (opens in a new tab) before you buy.

    Comparing two pieces of text side by side

    Biggest trade-off: Two-way text only. No three-way merge against a common ancestor, which is the reason developers buy the Pro editions.
