Virtual Machine Compression

For some purposes i had to copy the VMs and ship it across for which I wanted to compress the VM files. I have done comparison between 3 different tools for same VMs. I noticed the best Compression Ratio was for 7zip

Original Size 24 GB
7Zip 2.19 GB
WinRar 2.39 GB
PKZIP 2.90 GB
