"Everything good except for annoying bugs!!"
Version: Advanced SystemCare Pro 5.0
Pros
+Many Features
+Fast De-fragmentation
+Customizable UI
+Turbo Boost REALLY WORKS.Cons
-Active Boost worsens your system speed
-Got many bugs, that are to be fixed
-System Maintenance is not promising
-Built in Security Feature is really annoyingSummary
Install this if u really think u are out of options in getting a System Maintenance softwares. There are many a good features in this software, but i would recommend u try other softwares before u do. This doesn't crash your system(unless,if u have speedy system). But it really slows down your PC a lot by the name of active boost. Extract a WinRar Archive,and Run a Norton Scan it takes atleast 15 minutes to extract the archive.
One Liner- If u want looks with less substance go for this, else stay away. -
"COMPUTER CRASHED!"
Version: Advanced SystemCare Pro 5.0
Pros
The free one worked well
Cons
As soon as I purchased it, my computer froze and things wouldn't load. I have a black screen and can't re-install my computer. Have to take it to be fixed. ): freezing constantly, blocking EVERYTHING, including what was directly from Microsoft! Then my programs started to not open at all and I also got the black screen of death.

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY

"Does what it claims"
Version: Advanced SystemCare Pro 5.0
Pros
Like my one line summary said-Does what it claims.
Cons
I wish it had bandwidth TCP optimizer for Win 7 .Even though it says its not needed because Win 7 already does this for you,that isn't technically true.There are tweaks that can be done to enhance TCP connections.
Summary
I read several of the personal reviews on this product and I'm not sure why so many people had drastic issues with this program especially after upgrading from the free version.I did the same and have had no issues.Ive also been using Iobit products for many years without a hitch .Like any program you shouldn't just leave the program set in default mode.Some tweaking to personalize it is a necessary task.Things like turning on or off auto updating or watching carefully what you deleting or for that matter making sure your not permanently deleting something vital like install logs which can affect whether you can uninstall a program later on or not.I would highly advise this program as well as a few others this company makes.Some would say it just does the same thing that Windows already offers.Yes this is true but it has everything bundled like many programs out there that offer the same.I like the deep clean one click solution after Ive already tailored the settings for my needs.You can also do the whole go on autopilot mode which is also nice.For those of us out there who enjoy spending less time fiddling with Windows in order to enjoy our computers hassle free this is an excellent program.Just because I gave this product a glowing review doesn't mean I work for this company .However if Iobit wouldn't mind kicking me down a buck or two for endorsing them I would OK with that too.Bottom line is they have provided many people I know a easy free solution for issues with Windows in a very effective package .The pro version is a wise choice for those who really want to get deep in there and clean house.As for those who have all these issues I would say please read the product guidelines and check out the forums before using it and or stop installing pirated software that the program may have found which could be why they're systems are having so many issues.Be careful what you install and or what you delete.The program only does what its told.

"Do NOT install it if U do it will control ur computer"
Version: Advanced SystemCare Pro 5.0
Pros
The program starts itself when you reboot your computer. There is no where you can STOP this, and it is not listed at startups in msconfig. This is very bad. The company is controlling your computer, as if you are an employee and not a customer. I advise anyone to stay away from this program. There are many programs better than this intrusive program
Cons
Nothing, I wish there is -10 score to rate this intrusive program
Summary
Do not waste your time on a program that controls your computer whether you like it or not
I challenge advanced Systemcare company telling us how to stop this program from running after rebooting the computer

"Best cleaner"
Version: Advanced SystemCare Pro 5.0
Pros
Good interface, detailed cleaning and optimization
Cons
Their free version does everything you need. More than that gets to be dangerously clean.

"Very Disappointed"
Version: Advanced SystemCare Pro 5.0
Pros
All you need in one click, easy instructions, quick.
Cons
With it's regular instructions to keep computer clean and running smooth I followed what it said and ran regular scans. But soon after I paid, the computer started freezing constantly, blocking EVERYTHING, including what was directly from Microsoft! Then my programs started to not open at all and I also got the black screen of death.
Then I got a message when I got out of the horror screen that said that my Advanced System Care 5 was corrupted and I needed to reinstall. I had to totally delete the IObit mallware fighter as it was killing everything I was trying to do. I am very sad since I paid and also that it is slowly killing my computer. I will change my rating if something changes. However, I do not want my computer to die prematurely so I am wary of even re-downloading. -
"SOFTWARE CRASHING SYSTEM FILES, OS WON'T BOOT..."
Version: Advanced SystemCare Pro 5.0
Pros
It is convenient to have pretty much all of the tools you need to maintain your computer in one place. But there are many issues happening on the background that you're not aware about.
Cons
I've used Advanced SystemCare PRO for a while now and I thought it is perfect tool. After consistently running recommended Quick and Deep Care along with Game Booster I've got to the point that my system stopped booting and all I've got was BLACK DEATH SCREEN WITH CURSOR. If you think logically software recommends to run Deep and Quick Care pretty much every other day, which is not healthy for your computer. After running it I've noticed slowness on both of my computers, and then one of my computers just stopped booting. After uninstalling Advanced SystemCare PRO in the Safe Mode, my system successfully booted. Based on forums this problem was around since v.2 up until v.5 and company didn't take liberty to fix it.
Summary
Like I said, it seems like a good tool to have, but DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY AND USE TOOLS THAT DESIGNED TO WORK FOR YOUR OPERATING SYSTEM AND THAT ARE DEVELOPED BY MICROSOFT if you run Windows platform. Third companies like IObit utilizes same technology for exception they don't do extensive testing like Microsoft. Unless you want to get annoying BLACK SCREEN OF DEATH WITH CURSOR, I recommend using tools supplied with your Operating System and stay away from third party tools that constantly re-arranging your system files and damaging your computer.
