BetterSnapTool — Manage your window positions and size from your keyboard
BetterSnapTool allows you to easily manage your window positions and sizes by either dragging them to one of the screen’s corners or to the top, left or right side of the screen. This enables you to easily maximize your windows, position them side by side or even resize them to quarters of the screen.

I absolutely love Better Snap Tool - it's great value for money. Makes organising my gazillion windows much easier. @donnie - I found Cinch a bit too basic for what I needed as I tend to have things of all shapes and sizes on the go, but I agree that it's great if you're looking for something simple.
+1 used BetterTouchTool for ages until I realized I could just use this one spin-off app. It's so good and so mind-boggling how either this doesn't exist on OS X or isn't more of a solved problem on OS X.
This is one of the few things I missed about Windows! (I set mine up for ctrl-L to do half left, ctrl-R to do half right, and ctrl-up to do maximize).
Great for putting DayOne on one side and whatever I'm referencing on the other.
@ellenchisa - Great hunt! I've been using this app for a couple years and couldn't use my Mac without it. I don't know how people survive without some type of app like this :)
The only thing I'd love (which I don't think it can do) is thirds...so hotkey for a 1/3 on one side and a 2/3 on the other side.
I've been using Better Snap Tool for about a year now too. LOVE it. Great for presentations and every time I do it, people ask how I did that. =)
I've been using this tool for years now. I love it and highly recommend it. A 13" Macbook Pro doesn't leave much screen real estate so it helps to be able to easily move around windows.
I've been using Cinch for years. Super simple (mimics Windows style snapping)

This thing is seriously handy. Having enjoyed similar functionality natively on Windows, stumbling across BetterSnapTool made by day.
Great tool to effectively re-size your windows. Should be something standard on IOS, but this tool fixes it well.
Pros:Highly customizable shortcuts, easy to use, extensive
Cons:None really
