"Very impressed.Did what it said."
Version: SlimDrivers Free 2.2.29035.11202
Pros
All out of date drivers removed and installed.Better than a product that was purchased.So far so good.
Cons
I am looking for a down side but I haven't found one yet.
Summary
I have purchased a so called automatic Driver installer all I get is error messages.Slim Deivers did it 100% by greating a restore point in case anything goes wrong then backed up the old drivers then installed the new ones.

"Clean User Interface and Effecient"
Version: SlimDrivers Free 2.2.29035.11202
Pros
Clean user interface
Fast driver search
User selects which driver to updateCons
Occasionally finds older driver than what's already installed
Does not provide a lot of info on driver specifics.Summary
If you're looking for a free and effective driver update scanner, this app is a good choice. Although there are a few glitches, they are few and I have found it to be as good as Driver Magic and other "pay for" programs.

"I haven't finished using the product, so far so good."
Version: SlimDrivers Free 2.2.29035.11202
Pros
Is that I finally found a product that is actually free and really helping out. I've downloaded so many products that say free driver updater. Ya right they just scan and then you got to pay to get the updates you know!
Cons
Don't have any complaints so far I'll rate ya again when I'm done O.K. Thanks.
Summary
Keep up the good products thank you I'll rate again later give ya a bonus pat on the back.

"Takes the guesswork out of computer maintance"
Version: SlimDrivers Free 2.2.29035.11202
Pros
As I said, there is little doubt what's out of date. This program found things that hadn't been updated for 2 years!!
The interface is very easy to use and is quite understandableCons
I have not found any yet.

"Careless with driver updates"
Version: SlimDrivers Free 2.2.29035.11202
Pros
Apparently can find 'most' driver updates.
Cons
As there seems to be a problem with SlimDrivers determining which updates should be applied (Windows 8), a number of problems can occur (for the first time) after running automatic updates.
Summary
SlimDrivers is not free. Use another more reliable program/application for driver update and control.
-
"Worthwhile program."
Version: SlimDrivers Free 2.2.29035.11202
Pros
Small, thorough and easy to use.
Cons
One has to rescan after every update installation. However, it still doesn't take long and with frequent use there would not be that many updates to deal with during any single session.
Summary
There may be alternatives to locate outdated drivers but I'm not aware of them and I don't any other way to find my computer's driver status for items that are missed by Windows Update. Highly recommended.
