Softpedia Editor's Review for Unit Converter

Unit Converter is a simple, easy to use unit converter
Written by Bogdan Popa on November 18th, 2011
Converting units, regardless if we’re talking about time, length, speed, volume or pressure, takes just a few seconds since Google lets you do it on the fly. But what if you want to use a power converter straight on your desktop, so you don’t have to go over to Google.com every time you need it?
Well, that’s why you’d need Unit Converter, an application with a pretty self-explanatory name that comes to help you address this problem.
Unit Converter is absolutely surprising from the point of view of supported units, coming with a wide array of options such as time, circular measure, metric prefixes, number names, power, length, mass, speed, volume, energy, temperature, pressure and area.
And the greatest thing about it is not only the fact that it supports so many units, but the fact that everything is nicely displayed in a clean and user friendly interface.
The whole conversion process basically needs just a few clicks and less than 10 seconds because you’re prompted to choose the input and the output units and type in the value you wish to convert.
The conversion is performed in real time, so you won’t have to press a dedicated button for it, which again saves time.
The settings menu is almost useless, but it’s still handy for those who have problems working with so many units because it comes with a special tool to organize them by magnitude or alphabetically.
As a conclusion, Unit Converter is one of the simplest and most efficient tools we’ve ever seen and the freeware license makes it so much more appealing.
