Not just more pockets but a sleeker file and stays closed better. The closer-gizmo is something you put thru a hole in the front of the cover and turn rather than a plastic buckle that is hard to open and hard to close when the file is pretty full. The only thing that could be better is that the cover does not stay flipped back when the file is open; it insists on coming forward and you have to hold it back when accessing the file's compartments--or you can just wedge the cover under a nearby open desk drawer!
Nice but hard to work with as cover is to strong a plastic and you can not bend to keep open without cracking or causing cuts to your hands. Would not buy again
