Stay Clear of Iobit
March 8, 2015

To whom it may concern

There was a time that I thought iObit was the best software ever created! Not only did I love it and used it in all of my computers, both personal as well as Business, but what more I highly recommended it to everyone.

It really pains me to say that I now regard Iobit as the company and software to stay clear of, at all costs!

Number 1 Instead of being in the open up with full non-deceitful transparency, you chose to nickel-dime your customers with one, after another update/upgrade of single-segment add-ons, that after a while it had my head spinning as to what was what, and what was included
Number 2 You have loaded your software with one after another Pop-Up about updates/upgrades of non-essential bloat ware, with no way of turning them off and on top of it, you have taken over system registries such as the native defrag, and once iobit is uninstalled theres virtually no way to recover it.
Number 3 Even your uninstall function is deceptive since it leaves behind your annoying pop-ups, corrupted registries,

Too bad that you are so short-sighted, that you do not recognize you have now annoyed, antagonized, and angered good loyal customers such as myself.

Please take my name off your e-mail list The least you can do is respect my wishes and my privacy.

I dunno if you are into maintaining your own pc/laptop, Microsoft, Linux or
Mac but I found the freely free with the option for pro@ $14.95 per one
Copy on one machine for a year with tech support and community forums a
Bargain and the maker and title saved my laptop from dying two days ago when
Microsoft and Toshiba could not do anything at all.

www.iobit.com and advanced systemcare 8 and associated other partial ware
But free software for personal use and worthy of a bookmark or favorite in
Times of fixing anything computer software related that is Microsoft related
And is the top download everywhere round the world but mainly in the usa and
Europe.

I'm sorry, I write a lot LOL

Waste of money
July 27, 2014

Waste of money.

Instead of speeding up it slow you down.

Very time consuming and high pressure to upgrade.

I researched this site and found other negative (and frightening) comments about Iobit.com and their software ("Advanced SystemCare") harboring a "TrialPay.com" scam. There are too many comments to dismiss as frivolous.
My own experience is enough to keep me far away from this site: One of their pages displays a glowing post about Advanced SystemCare, quoting from Cnet.com. When I checked, the quotation was from THEIR OWN software description provided to Cnet!

IOBit engages in fraudulent behavior and has stolen Malwarebytes Intellectual Property - therefore I recommend keeping away from all it's downloads. Malwarebytes released a statement about this which can be found here: https://forums.malwarebytes.org//index.php?showtopic=2968.
