In fact, I have used many programs, both free and paid. This is by far the best "free" cleaner along with CCleane

Because of what I wrote above, I prefer the freeware version which identifies the programs that have updates, and to manually check the updates in order to decide whether to make the update or to define "skip" or "ignore".
I've tried a few other similar programs and this one is the best among them.

Very effective at finding software on you PC that needs to be updated. Be sure to get the .zip version without the spyware.Less effective at pointing you to the right download location. But you can easily Google it.

My favorite! Sad, because KC Softwares don´t explain the concept of this app an how it works. All others I tried, control only some popular programs but no all. This updater is the only one for thorough people! The interface could be a very little nicer, but this is a my very sophisticated desire... Try it and get the sumo_lite.exe with no installer-ads!!

Brilliant program & best software checker there is by a long way (tried them all). Those who give it less than four stars simply have never tried it. Bought the full version with auto updater. If you find a false update (rare) they sort it quickly. Great program!

Pros: Very rare false negatives (cases where there is a newer version, and SUMO doesn't identify it).
Not many cases of false positives (cases where a beta version, for example is identified as a production update).
Flexible option to ignore updates completely, ignore specific updates to specific versions, or skip for a chose period.
Cons: It is not sensitive to license issues. If you have a license to version n of some software it may offer you an update to a version you don't have license for.
Bottom Line: Because of what I wrote above, I prefer the freeware version which identifies the programs that have updates, and to manually check the updates in order to decide whether to make the update or to define "skip" or "ignore".

Pros: In my opinion, the best updater ever! Because the database on the server is "feeded" by the users themselves. If someone (the first of all users) updated an app on his machine manually or so, all other users know there is an update. And it works great! It is not the provider like all the other updaters, who feeds the database and - honestly - never knows ALL your Apps on your machine; because it is impossible. And an updater, who reports only some popular apps and not all my about 100 defined programs is quite worthless!
More functions: You can mark apps, when there is one, which is reported updated e.g. every day (some programmers are very hardworking(-:) and you only want a next report e.g. after a week or a month. Or you can ignore an app forever.
Cons: Of course sometimes (in a very few cases!) the program reports a false new version, because someone installed a beta version. In this case you con go to the manufacturers link in the app an check this item. The same way if you get a real update.
You can report the false beta per link and mail and it is corrected in the database. You get an according report per mail about the correction.
Bottom Line: My favorite! Sad, because KC Softwares don´t explain the concept of this app an how it works. All others I tried, control only some popular programs but no all. This updater is the only one for thorough people! The interface could be a very little nicer, but this is a my very sophisticated desire... Try it and get the sumo_lite.exe with no installer-ads!!

Pros: Great program, use the zip download does not contain any spyware etc. Best Software checker there is, if someone does not like it then they haven't used it.Bought the full version it's that good.
Cons: Nothing, use the .zip download.

Pros: none
Cons: Found bogus program versions that were not on the programs website, not even in thier beta section.
Bottom Line: don't bother
Music4Ever reviewed v5.3.5.367 on Sep 10, 2017
Pros: I've used this for years & it's the lightest & the smallest software update checker around. On the download page simply download the zip file & unzip it where you wish & make a shortcut to the .exe. No malware or spyware of ANY kind. Best I’ve used & tried them all. If you can’t work the above out sell your PC.
Cons: None, other than requires manual updating for the free portable version, takes less than a minute, updates around about twice month.
Bottom Line: Best update checker I've used - Give it a try & ignore the numpties below.
