Comparison

Al Fasoldt’s comparison between FixIt Utilities 8 Professional and
TuneUp Utilities 2008

"My favorite clean-and-shine program for Windows used to be Fix-It Utilities 8 Professional […].The best alternative I've tried so far is TuneUp Utilities 2008."

"TuneUp is not only faster than Fix-It; it's easier to understand and less likely to lead you astray. Disk fixing and defragging work well, and TuneUp uses an easy-to-understand method to help you disable those uninvited auto-startup programs that slip into Windows so readily. […] What I especially like about Tune Up is its friendliness. You never feel like you have to study Computer Rocketology to use any of its functions."
