System Mechanic Ultimate Defense

Colors were nice...Free trial is quite long which is nice.

I really felt like I had no control of the oftware. It would have been nice to have something for disks and network/wifi.

Contains all basic security SW tools, and computer maintenance tools, which are very intuitive and easy to use. If I said that the SW keeps my computer in top shape all the time it wouldn't be true, but it maintains the health of my computer in a pretty good shape for a long time. After a while, I notice some issues, which I cannot solve by myself using System Mechanics. At this point, I am calling Iolo Premium Support, and after, on average 30 - 40 min session with US Tech Support, my computer starts working as a newborn. I can recommend this service to anybody. Money well spent.
Although technicians usually are not from the United States almost all of them are speaking very good English. I have no problem to undrstand them. I love it.

I wrote that I had no complaints, but you thought it was too short, so OK - I wish the software was capable to maintain the perfect health of my computer without the involvement of a technician, but even without such an advanced feature I think that what I have is a great service.

Easy to use and seems to do a good job, but watch out for extra fees!

They offered a special and I extended my System Mechanic for a year. They immediately offered me another special, then another. So I took 4 special offers to extend my software for 4 years. However, each time I extended, they secretly signed me up for a $19.95 monthly fee. So I'm billed 4 X $19.95 / month for something I didn't want! I called and got the monthly fees stopped (I think), but I still have several months of payments that they took on my credit card, not reimbursed.

Works well in back ground. Doesn't take too much resources.

Had problems in installing, but solved by support team.

What I like about this software is the many useful tools available to clean up a drive of viruses, optimizing the hard drive, boosting speed, repair registry, password safety, and cleaning up system clutter to name a few. You can easily access the tools both automated and individual. iolo Labs keeps the definitions updated and relevant to the end users needs. I know I like it and have been a subscriber since 2009.

The password management tool ByePass has always been a mystery for me. I have tried to use it but I don't have the experience to use it. If that makes sense. It baffles me. Therefore I don't even try to use it even though I'm sure it is good because it is part of System Mechanic. They always put out quality software.
