IObit is not good
First, all these 5 star reviews read like they are being written by IObit employees. There are obvious cues if you know how to look for it. If that is happening, that should tell you something.
Advanced System Care started out as pretty nice software package. They have slowly divided the individual software programs into separate packages so you now have to buy 4-5 different bundles. So costs have gone way up over the years.
However, it RELENTLESSLY, has pop-ups come up on your screen trying to get you to buy more of their products. I am talking about multiple times a day. And there is no way to turn it off except to completely uninstall this software. I sent multiple messages to IObit which they just ignore.
This last part is pure speculation on my part. The underlining feeling for the company I have is that they are kinda slimy. I could never get in contact with anyone. And just everything I read from other posts. But that is really just my feeling and should be taking with some measure of caution.

I downloaded Advanced System Care and…
I downloaded Advanced System Care and then signed up for the Pro version which I have had for just over a year. I actually have no idea whether it speeded up the PC or anything else BUT what I do know is it slowed down the usage of my PC because of the continual pop-ups trying to sell me other products (feels very dodgy). It's also very unclear among all the various options what the software is actually doing. I have now removed the software and will avoid in future.

I had used Iobit some time ago the ACS made problems with
microsoft. So I uninstalled it. This time purchased a bundle but didn't want to install the ACS. But when you buy something, they install many other free version programs
without consultation you at all. So I had installed 4 of them then my laptop said "LOCKING" and my laptop had shut down. After 2 days just treid to boot and to my joy, it booted. The next morning I booted the laptop and all of a sudden the decktop showed " locking" and it has shut off. So the first thing I am going to do is uninstall all of the and never talk of I O BIT

I'm really satisfied, I've used their software from many years now, literally all their security and update software!
They just do their job, without interrupting my daily work on-line!
Thank You for that!

Verifone billing is a scam now
The product is an excellent product. However, since they moved to Verifone billing system, it feels like a scam company. Half the time the pages wont load, its impossible to find out how to unsubscribe. They took a good process and made it dirty and scam like. I have used IObit for well over 6-7 years, but this is the last. I will need to find another company.

Long Time Subscriber
I have 3 software from IOBIT (ASC, DB, IU) and I've been using them for years. The support team always assists in resolving problems in time. The use of 2Checkout is very helpful in tracking down your subscription. IObit should consider offering Special discounts for long-time subscribers ( 5 or 10 yrs) or opt for a Perpetual License with a discounted price.

POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE
I have several iObit products - but I find it VERY, VERY difficult to contact Customer Services to enquire about my password, as I can't get access to my Account.
I believe this is done on purpose to make it difficult to get in touch. They don't want to hear about complaints! Where is the procedure for making a complaint??

If you like ads get this software
Avoid this malicious software that spams ads for their other software even when you paid for the product.
Better get Ashampoo WinOptimizer 27 which costs 16 euro for a lifetime license and has way more functions and does not advertise any other products that they have.

I've been using their products for over 15 years
I've been using 6 of their products for years (since 2009,) and have found them to be easy to use and effective. I'm surprised at the negative posts, here, because I've made several contacts in the last 2 years, and have received prompt replies -- that actually answered my question/concern -- each time. :-)

Too invasive
Have used Advanced System Care for some time. Seem to work ok. However, during installation one has to be very observant to avoid installing other programs like iTop screen recorder, and others. After installation I am regularly reminded to download iTop VPN since my IP address is exposed and my PC is vulnerable, despite having another highly rated VPN installed. I am now tired of it.

"permanent license"
I bought a permanent license for Driver Booster Pro 11, but it automatically updated to Driver Booster Pro 12, and my previous license no longer works. They DONT allow you to revert to version 11 or re-download it.
Like, Its LITERALLY a scam, and I'm SURE it's illegal to do so, if I own the perma license, I have the RIGHT to use it forever without it being taken away!

WAS a loyal customer..NO MORE
I have been a loyal customer for many years and today I decided to cancel auto renew with driver booster pro and see that they have made it VERY Difficult to see where the "Stop Auto Renewal" button is so after a very frustrating attempt to find this (WITH NO SUCCSESS) I decided I will cancel ALL of my products with them!
This is a very deceptive practice aimed at confusing people into staying with the company. so I am now asking them to CANCEL ALL PRODUCTS and ALL AUTO RENEWALS! Shame on them
