The IDA Free is a disassembler that has no alternative. It is the only suitable disassembler for professional work. It has become a standard long time ago, and if they talk about disassembler, they mean IDA Free first of all. IDA Free has a huge number of features and modules that greatly simplify the process of disassembling. This includes recognition of standard library functions, recognition of function arguments and their types, representation of the whole code in a convenient tree-like form and much more.

The main user groups of IDA Free are antivirus companies, major software developers, information security specialists.

IDA Freeware benefits users by providing comprehensive disassembling features, making it the go-to tool for professionals in software development and information security.

- window with the list of program functions;

- a list of program segments;

- the tree structure of the code;

- list of imported functions;

- a built-in debugger;

- Built-in IDC programming language;

- the ability to make comments and change the names of variables and functions for easy readability.

- intellectual processing. Today, there are a lot of encrypted or knowingly confusing code fragments in the text of programs. Exact separation of code and program data is a whole science or even art. One incorrectly recognized function argument may cause serious errors in investigation of the whole code. Today, the IDA Pro has the most powerful program code analysis mechanism, which greatly simplifies disassembling;

- FLIRT's unique technology: modern viruses and worms are most often written in high-level languages, making it difficult to disassemble. With FLIRT technology and advanced stack tracking capabilities, the IDA Pro provides the original source code as accurately as possible;

- expansion and improvement. Of course, developers are doing their best to improve the IDA Pro, but only debuggers and decompilers are working with the IDA Pro in a "combat" environment and always know better what they need. With the IDA Pro SDK, you can extend the functionality and customize your disassembler to your needs;

Sometimes I need to look at binary code. I use IDA Freeweare for Windows to do that. It shows me maps of the binary code that's used in processes. It's a series of zeros and ones. It creates files that are human readable format out of the code. The geek in me is overjoyed. That is amazing and super cool.

Using this software we may create software maps. Though it is hard to make sense of assembly language. It is an analysis tool. It has an available free version and trial also free. I used this IDA pro as it is both disassembler and debugger. Overall performance is good.

I have used IDA Freeware software in my work and found it to be a useful tool. It is easy to use and provides useful information on the source code. It can be used to analyse program behaviour and detect errors in code. The interface is intuitive and there are many features available. It is also fast and efficient, allowing for quick and precise analysis. The Freeware version does have some limitations compared to the full version, however for basic analysis it is more than sufficient.
