On - HoudahSpot + Finder is All the File Management You Actually Need
HoudahSpot was never designed to replace Finder. It was designed to do the one thing Finder search can’t do well: let you find files using precise, composable criteria.[…] When trying to wrangle a large number of files, Finder keeps you searching and guessing. HoudahSpot, on the other hand, helps you interactively refine your searches until you zero in on the files you need.[…] The reason this pairing works so well is that HoudahSpot and Finder do different things. Finder handles navigation, copy/move, renaming, previews. HoudahSpot handles finding.
Since purchasing HoudahSpot 5 years ago, I've done all my file searching with it. I don't even bother using Finder anymore. I have templates set up for my most frequently searched locations, which makes it searching really easy. One thing I really appreciate is that HoudahSpot searches both titles and content.
HoudahSpot is Mac only and available at https://www.houdah.com/houdahSpot/ with a free trial.
