[Windows] Keep your computer running clean with the all-in-one ...

When you do as much work on the PC as I do, you worry about keeping it clean and running right. That is why I love to find new cleaning utilities. Of course, all-in-one cleaning utilities are about a dime a dozen these days, so I didn't have much hope for Wise Care 365. After running it, though, I was pretty impressed with the results I got.

WHAT IS IT AND WHAT DOES IT DO

Main Functionality

Wise Care 365 is an all-in-one cleaning utility that you can use to keep your PC healthy. It helps you by running the following services: PC Checkup, System Tune-up, Privacy Protector and Wise Utilities. All of these features can be used to help keep your computer in great working order. The program is now also compatible with Windows 8.

Pros

• Both a Pro and Free version available
• Comes with a Disk Cleaner and a Registry Cleaner
• Program does all the work for you. This allows you to keep your computer running great with just a few clicks.
• Extremely fast scanning speed when compared to similar utilities
• Comes with the following utilities: Privacy Eraser, Registry Defrag, Disk Defrag, Startup Manager, Advanced Cleaner, System Slimmer, File Shredder, Password Generator, Registry Cleaner, Game Booster, Program Uninstaller, Memory Optimizer, Auto Shutdown, Data Recovery, Folder Hider, JetSearch, and Disk Eraser.

Cons

• The official site sends you to CNET to download (however, you are not forced to use the CNET downloader)
• Free version does not have privacy cleaning module or the ability to automatically update in the background

Discussion

I'll start off by saying that Wise Care 365 is a great program as far as all-in-one utilities are concerned. It preforms operations fast, and you have a lot of helpful tools to use. Of course, I may just feel this way because the program helped me free up over 2GB of space. That is a pretty good amount considering the fact that I ran a different cleaning program just before running this one. Thus, the program got off to a great start.

Now, there are two versions of this program available. There is the Free one and the Pro one. For most users, the Free version will be just fine. However, there are a few extra features that the Pro program comes with. Before we get into the extras that come with the Pro version, let's talk about the features available in both versions.

Regardless of which version you download, you will have access to the following features: Registry Defrag, Disk Defrag, Startup Manager, Advanced Cleaner, System Slimmer, File Shredder, Password Generator, Registry Cleaner, Game Booster, Program Uninstaller (yes, it tries to cleanup "leftover" traces of programs), Memory Optimizer, Auto Shutdown, Data Recovery, Folder Hider, JetSearch, and Disk Eraser. All of these are fully functional, even in the Free version. If you upgrade to Pro, you get to enjoy these added benefits: Auto Updates in the Background, Fixes Privacy Issues found during System Check Up (Free version will list privacy issues but does not fix them), and you can also use the Privacy Eraser.

The Free version also comes with a few different skins you can use. The Pro version offers more, but this is not really a feature worth upgrading for. If you are going to shell out the money for the Pro version, it is more than likely going to be for the ability to fix your privacy issues. I guess, however, the extra skins are a nice bonus.

CONCLUSION AND DOWNLOAD LINK

Overall, I highly recommend giving this program a try. Regardless if you use the Free version or you buy the Pro, this program will offer you some kind of benefit. At the very least, you can download the Free version to see if you like it. The official site takes to your CNET to download the program, but you do not have to deal with the crappy CNET Downloader. Once you click download, you will just get the Wise Care 365 installer.

If you don't want to upgrade to the Pro version but still want to be able to clean privacy traces, there are plenty of freeware tools similar to Wise Care 365. The first one that comes to mind is CCleaner, an excellent free program that is the industry standard when it comes to cleaning privacy traces. Others include Toolwiz Care, Glary Utilities, WinUtilities Free, Advanced SystemCare, Puran Utilities, and much more.
