People still use WinRAR? Does it offer anything more than 7-zip?

For people compressing things a lot, winrar is much more productive than 7z. I can easily set up default profile in winrar (best compression quality + delete files after archiving) but can’t do this with 7z

tar with pigz for compressiom is a lifesaver for large archives.

Yes, many people in an office environment. Just habit like the Total Commander :|

Back in the time, it offered much better compression ratio than popular (Win)Zip. And it has SFX feature.
