24 hour refund policy
The Root Explorer devs have a 24 hour refund policy despite Google's 2 hour policy. All one needs to do is e-mail the devs within that 24 hour period to ask for a refund.

Root file access and editing
As the name would suggest root file access and editing is something Root File Explorer excels at. It was one of the first to have this function and is still one of the best.

Greenifying without ROOT has to be done manually each time
When using Greenify without ROOT access to hibernate apps, it has to be done manually each time. There is a widget and shortcut that users can set to their home screen to make this action a bit easier though.

Has extra experimental features over the free version
The Greenify (Donation Package) has a few extra experimental features that the free version does not offer. They require ROOT and the Xposed module to be installed. Using these features can help with the compatibility of the rest of the Greenify app, which is a big plus.

Does not mess with APKs
Xposed can radically modify the behavior and look of the system and apps without having to modify any APKs. This means that Xposed modules can work with different versions of the same ROM or even different ROMs altogether.
