CNET Editors' review
This utility offers a one-stop-shop for cleaning and maintaining your computer for better overall system performance. The interface is very simple, featuring only a few buttons, which makes it easy to get down to cleaning immediately (in fact, it automatically runs on start-up) and doesn't confuse you with multiple steps.
The Maintain Windows section focuses on four areas of maintenance: spyware removal, Registry cleaning, a privacy sweep, and deletion of junk files. The Diagnose System button provides system optimization tools, detects spyware, defragments your disk, and scans for hijacked Windows settings. In our tests the scan and clean for each of these areas took less than 10 minutes to complete. In many of these scans, it is difficult to tell what exactly is being accomplished by some of the tools, but we were able to test against other trusted apps, which confirmed Advanced SystemCare's efficacy in those areas.
Under the utilities section you are given several tools, which are similar to plug-ins, for other areas of optimization and diagnostic tests. Overall, Advanced SystemCare Free is a good way to maintain your system's speed and clear out junk files, but you'll need to remember to run it regularly because scheduling of scans is only available in the paid Pro version.

"Outstanding! I have installed it on 100's of computers"
Version: Advanced SystemCare Free 3.2.0

It does what it is designed to do. It is simple to use, it is quick & thorough. It not only removers dead files from the entire system and it prevents 1,000's of malicious cookies from being installed.
Cons
I have no dislikes about the product!

"Fast and Effective! I love this program!"
Version: Advanced SystemCare Free 3.2.0
Pros
The fact that it is a fast program that does the job. I have tried it against the program I have been using and it does the job quicker and just as effective as my old program. Honestly, I am amazed and pleased.
Cons
I wish I could do a "full" or "deep" scan with it. It seems to me that it comes close to accomplishing this act. I understand that it might take a bit longer, but I still think it would be faster than my old program.
Summary
If I do not want to sit in front of my computer for an "hour" or more, or leave my computer up "scanning" while I go to sleep or rest, then this is the best program. As I said, it is very fast, I love this. I have Fibromyalgia, and there are times when I must get off the computer ASAP. This program does the job for me and I do not have to worry about leaving my computer up and running. My sister was visiting me for a few days and she too is a computer addict. I should her this program and did a comparison with my old program and she was absolutely amazed also. Thank you so very much for giving me access to this wonderful program. Also living on a fixed income, I cannot afford expensive programs. This program having the free download is wonderful. And I will say it again. I never expected to get this speed, these results from a free download. Thank you again.

ease of use with helps
Cons
nothing I don't like.

"So far, so good, better that others I''ve used."
Version: Advanced SystemCare Free 3.2.0
Pros
I like its comprehensive nature. Speed, ease and clarity also impress. May upgrade, if another program I purchased, but will not load, keeps giving me trouble.
Cons
I'm anxious about some of the other comments and user's reports of troubles.
Summary
Again, I've been having troubles with my computer using most all of its memory, performing slowly and creating "the blue screen of death." Mea culpa on most problems, and I can learn.

"I don't trust this program"
Version: Advanced SystemCare Free 3.2.0
Pros
The disk defragmenter seems to be safe
Cons
It just seems dangerous to me. It caused me more troubles after going through a thorough 'cleanup'
Summary
After running all the cleanup programs, the only thing that was predictable about my computer (Vista) was that it crashed programs left and right. I had to completely erase my hard drive and reinstall from a backup program. I'm just glad I did a total backup just days before i installed Advanced SystemCare Free 3.2.0. I thought i was going to be doing my computer a favor and speed it up. Just the opposite happened. I'm no computer guru and wanted something simple. I should have been suspicious when the program told me it found close to 4000 errors. i told it to just fix them all. It was after this cleaning that my troubles began. Maybe someone else will have better luck. Just be sure you are totally backed up to external media before you begin.

"I starts out free and screws with you until you upgrade"
Version: Advanced SystemCare Free 3.2.0
Pros
I started out thinking this program was great. To good to be free. It seemed to be finding and repairing a lot of things on my computer.
Cons
Its not really free....
Summary
After the program had been on my computer for awhile my computer started gradually getting slower and slower to the point I could hardly even use it anymore. I ran IOBIT and it came back with a message saying it had found 50+ system errors and some registry errors and IF I UPGRADED FROM THE FREE VERSION IT COULD SPEED UP MY COMPUTER BY 200% ...;.What a coincidence.... that's about how much slower it got after installed the program. Once I deleted the program my computer went pretty close back to normal
