PerfectDisk Professional is one of the best disk defragmenting tools available. A similar product I like is the "Diskeeper Professional Premier ". I can say that both are equally good. They are the best at disk defragmenting.

Often, files can get fragmented. This means that a single, big file requires a lot of space in a disk and the space it occupies is not contiguous. So, while accessing the file, it might take a lot of time and the disk activity is also increased. That means a loss of time and a shorter life of the hard disk. Often the file fragmentation can get that bad that the computer becomes very slow. The basic PC registry and file cleanup won’t do much good.

The problem with Windows Disk Defragmenter is that it still uses the old style of defragmenting and not much improvement has been made in it. It also takes a lot of time.

PerfectDisk Professional includes advanced defragmenting techniques for various file systems. It can speed up the disk automatically, even when we are using it. It can efficiently manage CPU and other resources to carry out the task of defragmenting in a manner that doesn’t affect our activities.

We can click the "Analyze" button to analyze the disk, which presents us with a report along with the file structure or visual data about which parts of the disk are having more fragmentation, and which parts are being frequently modified, etc. It is more complex and gives more information than the chart given by Diskeeper software. The "Defragment" button will defragment the disk completely (or according to the setting already specified).
There are a lot of settings to customize. We can even set the software to wake the computer from standby mode to automatically run the task. Also when screensaver is running, the software can be set to use more system resource, since we won’t be using the computer at that time for some hard works, etc.
There are also features like Duplicate File Finder, space Explorer, etc.
Regarding the features, usability, and price of software, this is the best disk defragmenting software available.
