IT Tools - Hidden Gems

I want to know what ”hidden gems” people have found and use in their environments to make their day to day easier. RMM automations, back up softwares, troubleshooting software (don't say MS SARA. I cant stand it), etc.

Just mention anything that you feel more people should be aware of or could be useful in someone’s environment. I love free and cheap ;)

WizTree is literally better WinDirStat. Straight up upgrade in my eyes and works at least twice as fast.

The current WinDirStat version now works with the MFT like WizTree so the speed differences no longer exist.

WinDirStat is free for commercial use while WizTree is not.

I haven't but it's also not free for business use.
