  "I LOVED AWC, THIS I DON´T"

  by Jim Kovacs on March 22, 2009

  Pros: I loved AWC.
  Now ASCF is VERY intrusive. No Like !
  I don´t need that, I use CCleaner for years, and SpywareBlaster and Firefox, + AVAST! free.
  Hey, NOTHING can get past that combination and it is all FREE
  ALSO, MY MACHINES RUN FASTER NOW !

  Cons: AWC was wonderful, tasty...
  ASC is intrusive, not clear, and not for me.
  PLUS it slows down my systems (proven).
  Not the same..... you guys changed geeks !

  Summary: I installed and uninstalled this TWICE on one main machine and two laptops.
  Sorry, don´t like it or need it, CCleaner + Firefox + AVAST work just great.
  Sorry, I really liked AWC. I run XP, this looks like Vista.

  "Comprehensive, but easy"

  by Grateful2 on December 21, 2008

  Pros: Has many tools that deal with the maintaing the registry, maintaing Windows, and even scans for Spyware with automatic updates. This all-in-one product is quite comprehensive.

  Cons: I haven't run into any yet. The program gives me an automatic System Restore Point evey time I open the program. I imagine that it would reverse any errors it makes.

  Summary: This is a must-have program for evey windows user. And the price is right! I couldn't imagine what the shareware PRO version was like until I went to the IObit.com website where they have a comparison chart of the 2 programs. That way you can easily... read more

  "Versatile & fast, but be cautious"

  by hfrankfurt on December 21, 2008

  Pros: 1. nice-looking interface
  2. many, many, MANY user tools, ranging from RAM optimizer to security tools and lots of others
  3. relatively fast scanning & very quick repair

  Cons: A little too powerful... be careful when using the System Optimizer under the "Diagnose System" tab, as it can set back a lot of settings you probably won't want changed. Also prepare for a slower startup.

  Summary: In general, SystemCare is a really polished programme. And I spent almost an hour trying out all of the tools it came with -- really nice stuff.There's a few setbacks that need re-mentioning though. First, the tool that checks for updates to your pro... read more

  "A quick way to clean up Windows"

  by Figaro14 on December 21, 2008

  Pros: Very, very easy to use. Not much you have to think about when running each of the programs. Its as close to 100% automatic as a program can get

  Cons: It will produce a nag screen trying to get you to buy an upgraded version.

  Summary: It appears to do what it says it does and you can set it to always do a back up before running it. I'm a bit confused as to those who say its slowing their system down. You can opt not to have the program run except when you want to do a cleaning. read more
