Easy File Renamer review
A rule-driven renamer for media libraries, folders, and connected cloud files.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Easy File Renamer is desktop software for batch-renaming files and folders on Windows and macOS, with a browser companion for cloud-file renaming. It is aimed at people managing photo, video, music, and folder collections who need repeatable naming rules rather than one-off edits. The product can preview proposed names before applying changes, stack multiple rules, use regular expressions in replace and remove rules, and save rule stacks as reusable macros. Its media workflows use dates, camera details, dimensions, sequences, and music tags such as artist, title, album, year, genre, and track.
Pricing is license-based rather than subscription-free. Single Solution costs $29.99 per license per year, $39.99 per license for 2 years, or $79.99 one-time for a lifetime license. Family Pack costs $39.99 per 3 licenses per year, $49.99 per 3 licenses for 2 years, or $89.99 one-time for 3 lifetime licenses. Small Business costs $79.99 per 10 licenses per year or $99.99 per 10 licenses for 2 years. A limited trial allows change previews, while registration is required to apply them. The plan structure suits individuals, households, and small teams, but there is no free plan.
Its strongest fit is a cloud-connected media workflow: the browser companion supports Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, and Amazon S3, while the desktop apps cover Windows and macOS. That combination gives users a path from local folders to cloud storage without changing the core rule-based approach. Choose Easy File Renamer if metadata-aware renaming, reusable macros, folder support, and regular expressions matter. Choose an alternative if you need a free product, broader platform coverage beyond the listed environments, or a cloud-only workflow without a desktop component.
