Can anyone recommend the best file compressor for Mac?

Hello, before making a purchase of compression software, I thought I'd first seek advice from the forum on which option would be the best. Common file types are MS Office, PDF, and JPEG. Stuffit has received positive reviews and outperforms WinZip in lossless compression.

Without any third-party application, macOS allows you to compress files on Mac using the right-click menu. It automatically names the file with the extension .zip and saves the compressed file to the original location. If you want more advanced functions, you may need a third-party compressor for Mac.
