Version: AusLogics BoostSpeed 3.7.3
Pros: It doesn't mess up ur pc registry, for me which is equal with tuneup utilities. But functions still slightly different and respectively. I personally keep Auslogics BoostSpeed, Tuneup and Winaso. These 3 works great for me. After used Auslogics BoostSpeed it has an obvious speedup my pc, this is the main point why i will pay for it. Thank you!
Cons: so far none.

"Barley makes 4 stars for me."
Pros: It barley makes a 4 star rating for me. But as an owner of Boost Speed 3, which I loved on XP & hated on Vista, I found that $10.00 to upgrade was reasonable.
Boost Speed 3 was blocked by Vista on startup, v4 isn't. With the free AUS Defrag, which was also a love hate relationship, I find that with this updated program which includes it, it's actually better with no nag about junk files. The registry cleaner is less aggressive & safer in my book. The registry defrag did not mess up my Creative Music Player where the one in Tuneup Utilities 2008 did. There is an option in System Information that will create a full report which is much more accurate then the one the free Belarc Adviser displays. Even though there are solid, free programs that will accomplish almost everything this does, I upgraded for the $10.00 and feel it was worth that price. If I was a new customer, I wouldn't pay $30.00 for it because there are a couple, better like programs available. Personally, I prefer Win Utilities to this but having both certainly cant hurt.
Cons: The price as a new customer is more then it's worth with good freeware that can accomplish these tasks. It's not as easy to navigate as v3 was but thats probably because I was used to it. The program optimizations have to be selected manually where in v3 they were 2 clicks each.

Version: AusLogics BoostSpeed 4.1.3
Pros: Ausloagics BootSpeed just does what it says.
Every function works and they are quite useful.
It defrags, it cleans junks, it repairs registry, it has a built-in program uninstaller, it has it's own file shredder, it could back up files, it speeds up your web-browsing too. I am just a satisfied user of this product. And as to "Software Tester", I don't think he even tried the software yet. Auslogics BootSpeed is a fine software for your slow computers to speed up.

Version: AusLogics BoostSpeed 4.1.3
Pros: Quite effective with some flaws. The features set of this product was as good as those of TuneUp 2008 and Ashampoo WinOptimizer5. But this I like the settings of this tweaker since it has the Windows Service Management link which is hard to find for newbies. Basically this can make the System load more faster. I like the fact this product can defrag my drives a lot faster. It has a System Protection feature which other similar program doesn't have. And I really like the disabling of password logon onto the hard drive. Its tweak manager is very useful and Most of its features is quite effective. I'm reviewing this for all comp-techy out there and see it for yourself.
Cons: Its Memory optimizer isn't user friendly.
Its System Optimizer (Optimization) Is not that multi featured compare to TuneUp 2008 which has an Advisor.
THE DISK WIPER IS TERRIBLY SLOW! I don't like it. We're in a fast paced environment and we need faster program! My computer specs can surpassed the Pentium D 3.6 Ghz. When using other Disk wiper it's kinda fast

"Boost Speed Does Just That ~ Boost!"
Pros: I must agree with ww2vet ~ as I usually do ~ Boost Speed is not an App. for the newcomers. However, I found that all the the optimiazation tools to be some of the best on the market; amazing what it does to systems that lack in RAM.
Once again, I find myself wondering if the negative reviews are created by those who enter into their registry without a clue as to the true purpose of a registry cleaner. With that in mind, I suggest to those who feel the need for speed to download this App.
If you don't understand the function of a registry cleaner ~ do not use the registry tools of this App.
Boost Speed made an extremly lacking and old machine run bettter than it did the day it was taken out of the box seven years ago.
I do not agree with any of the negative reviews, espically those that claim Boost Speed slowed their systems down. I have seen no obvious conflicts with any of the other applications on my machine ~ trust me ~ Hundreds of programs it could conflict with, and I have not seen any!
Cons: It needs a more simplified registry cleaning suite, so that those who aren't familiar with registry cleaners can give this wonderful application the five stars it rightfully deserves!
