How does this compare to the existing Explorer alternatives? IE: OneCommander, Directory Opus and to a lesser extent TotalCommander and Multi Commander.

What would be the major features it offers that others do not?

Speed, modern UI, rearangable panels & tabs, globaly accesable and remmapable all actions via cmd palette, GoTo window, batch rename...

And many more things to come. Since this was built from scratch, a lot of time and enginering effort was put into building a solid base. I'm in a phase where adding new stuff is fairly frictionless, so it's gonna get a lot better in the coming months.

That being said, it's only 3 years old, very young compared to other long time players. So, it's not comparable feature for feature, yet.
