CNET Editors' review
Glarysoft's Glary Utilities is one of the most consistently popular and most frequently recommended system utilities, and why not? It bundles some of the most useful Windows-related tools in one free download. It scans and cleans your PC, cleaning temporary files, removing junk files, fixing broken shortcuts, and resolving a wide range of issues, both major and minor, that most Windows users will have no trouble recognizing. You can configure its One-Click Maintenance option to run just those processes you want with a single click, making regular maintenance just too easy for excuses. You can run any of its many tools individually, too.
Glary Utilities has a basic but colorful (and skinnable) dialog-sized interface with tabs for Status, 1-Click Maintenance, and Modules. Under Modules, Glary groups a wide variety of tools under a series of headings, some of which access the same tools from different categories: Clean & Repair, Optimize & Improve, Privacy & Security; Files & Folders; and System Tools. We clicked Scan on the 1-Click Maintenance tab, which initiated a system-wide scan for junk files, spyware, and lots of other stuff that we needed to fix or throw out: sort of like cleaning the basement, actually. Glary Utilities displayed its summary findings, and we could click to view details or just press Repair Problems to fix the lot, which we did. The tool swiftly purged our system of the obsolete, unneeded, and junk data that can clog your machine over time, compromising performance and even security.
The 1-Click Maintenance is reason enough to keep Glary Utilities and run it regularly, but more excellent reasons can be found in its Modules, which let you run Glary's utilities individually as well as access many more tools, including a file shredder, startup manager, memory optimizer, registry defragmenter, and file recover and undelete tool. It also lets you run a variety of Windows utilities from Glary's interface, including the Process Manager and System Information. Running tools like the Duplicate File Finder now and again and the 1-Click Maintenance regularly will help keep your PC running fast, smooth, and safe. We recommend Glary Utilities to all Windows users.

"Pretty good"
Version: Glary Utilities 2.40.0.1326
Pros
Easy to use. If you take the very little time it takes to familiarize yourself with this is safe and effective. The people who say that it trashes their system either don't understand what this kind of software can do or don't care what they do to their systems. P.T. Barnum's maxim applies here.
Installed with no problems on my Win7x64 machine and run's like a charm.Cons
As with almost all Freeware this asks you to download a toolbar. Unclick this box people........ at least LOOK at what you're installing be fore you just blindly hit next. Simple as that.
Summary
Loads of things you can do. If you have any doubts or are unfamiliar with a module.... leave it alone. That's just common sense to me. Google what you don't understand BEFORE you do something new or unfamiliar. System restore is there for a reason too.
Anyway, decent enough program, miles ahead of Advanced System Care imho. I have removed all iobits programs from my machine a long time ago for various reasons both political and functional. -
"Horrible! Do not Download"
Version: Glary Utilities 2.40.0.1326
Pros
Nothing pro, use advanced system care, way better
Cons
Forces you to install the stupid ASK Toolbar
Summary
Download Advance SystemCare instead of this crap... I dont even know how it's in the top 10.. .

"Super easy for computer dummies"
Version: Glary Utilities 2.40.0.1326
Pros
The menu guides you through every function of this program. If that is too difficult then just click on the "1 click maintenance" feature and it will run by itself and ask if you approve before taking action against items it deems needs correcting.
Cons
After 5 years of Glary, I have never had trouble, problems, difficulty. Once the old puter farted and the wife caught the smell, but that was not Glary's fault. The cat did it!!

"woks great"
Version: Glary Utilities 2.40.0.1326

no problems at all
Cons
I do not have any cons with this program
