    NanaZip is a lot faster UI-wise than Peazip. Otherwise they have a similar concept (refresh of 7Zip's UX).

    Also NanaZip's checksum works from the context menu. For some reason I got an error (no application found) when trying to generate checksums from PeaZip's context menu. Looking for the Peazip exe manually didn't work either.

    So NanaZip is a bit better for me.
