Version: Smart Defrag 5.01
Pros: I have really have liked Iobit's programs for a long time now and SmartDefrag Beta 5.01is at the top of the list. Easy to install, simple to navigate GUI, and love the real time auto defrag. Glad to see the optimize feature added back to this version. It helps speed up all my systems.
Works flawlessly on XP. You really need a good disk defragmentation tool to keep your Hard Drive running at peak performance. Having SmartDefrag with real time auto defrag is an added bonus that makes this program a must have!!!
Cons: Still quite buggy installed on Vista Ultimate. Refuses to load on start-up even though I have "load at start-up" checked in the options. I have my systems locked down very tight (security wise) so If anyone has or not had this problem,please include that in your reviews.
Had to rate the app 4 stars out of five because of this.

Version: Smart Defrag 5.01
Pros: NONE
Cons: Usually I'm a fan of IObit programs, but this SmartDefrag Beta 5.01 has really disappointed me. It is extremely slow, eats up masses amounts of resources, unstable and very difficult to read. I'd much rather have the previous version, but can no longer find it. I'll have to uninstall this disastrous defragmentor and find a much better one.

Version: Smart Defrag 5.01
Pros: It defrags your harddrive in the background, so that you don't need to think about it anymore.
Also has a feature called "Auto Defrag" which only defrags your harddrive when you are idle or not working on your computer.
Cons: None.

Version: Smart Defrag 5.01
"Fastest but not the most powerful"
Pros: This is the best defrag utility to use inbetween powerful defag tools like Norton Speed disk, Auslogic, or TuneUp defrag. when it's in your system tray, it constantly defrags a little by little keeping your drive from behing to defraged when you do finally go all out. It can quickly defrag files, or defrag and rearrange files. This is a great free defrag utility.
Cons: the auto defrag makes higher disk usage which will slow your pc some, also the defrag engine is slightly weak in that it doesn't rearange files nearly as well as say speed disk or tuneup defrag. Also, in Vista, in order to get it to start with the PC, User Account Control must be disabled.
