"No better than other simpler installations"
Version: ProduKey 1.53
Pros
Found Office multi-user product keys and Vista product key.
Free.Cons
Did not find single user key of a multi-user Office license, as is the case with ALL other product key finders that I was able to test.
Requires installation, while most other programs only have an EXE file that runs without installation.Summary
Cannot find single user key of a multi-user MS Office 2010 license.

"Information is limited, but program is very quick"
Version: ProduKey 1.53
Pros
- Does exactly what it says for a limited number of Microsoft products
- Runs virtually instantlyCons
- Could do more if it included keys from other Microsoft and non-Microsoft products
- Some Microsoft products were misidentified.Summary
Programs like Belarc Advisor provide license and key information for all your software. Produkey seems to be limited to providing only the most basic information about Microsoft products. However, if all you want is a list of Microsoft keys, this program works virtually instantly. Belarc Advisor takes several minutes to analyze a broader cross section of your computer's hardware and software before displaying its report. For the most part, the information from Belarc Advisor matched the information from Produkey. But, there were inconsistencies, and these tended to point to flaws in Produkey. For example, Produkey reported that I had TWO copies of Microsoft Word 2002 installed. Belarc identified one product as being Microsoft Word, while the other was a component of Microsoft Visual Studio. Also, Produkey only identified five Microsoft products (with one of those being a duplicate), whereas Belarc Advisor identified twenty-seven Microsoft products on my machine.
