Software Informer is a powerful application that keeps your software updated. Although it hasn't been around for much time, Software Informer is already gaining a huge base of users thanks to its ease of use and features. The application carries out a rather simple task, but I haven't seen many applications exploiting this niche. If you are any bit like me (or like most other heavy users out there) you will have a bunch of applications installed on your computer. Most of the time, you won't even open them, but it is nice to know that when the time comes, you will have a working application. However, with the ever-increasing speed in which the world changes nowadays, it is safe to assume that most applications will be outdated. Upon installation, Software Informer will scan your entire computer and detect your application's versions. Then, it will compare those applications with the online database at http://software.informer.com and tell you which programs are up-to-date and which are not. On the server, there are almost 40,000 applications. That means that you can be sure that the application you want to update will be there. But that is not all; software informer's staff make it they sole goal to provide great reviews of the applications on the server. So, while you update all your applications, you may get your eyes on another delightful peace of software and give it a try. The only thing that I think could better this application even more is an automatic update feature for all your applications. That might be overkill, but it would make for a nice feature.

Advantages:

  • Displays new updates for all your applications.
  • Small download.
  • Doesn't take system resources at all.
  • No spyware or adware.
  • Great reviews of applications on the server.
  • Ever-growing list of applications on the server.

Disadvantages:

  • It would be great if the application automated new updates for all your applications.

sad to say, some supposed updates for some programs are not true.

SI is a great software. I would appreciate if the programs which I
do not want to be updated could be hidden in the SI overview. This
would enhance the readability

Guest #381160 says Last month #


crack software Informer 1.0.236.0 and get the serial / lisence key

Guest #497784 says 28 days ago #



I guess I thought this was a free program and didn't need
serial/license keys...

Sougata Khan says Last month #


Very good software .
I would like to bring to notice the fact that the SI client doesn't
login securely and can be a security risk if a hacker sniffs on the
network. Moreover once a hacker has access to the link he can log in
and change the password which doesn't require entering the old
password!!!

Hope the matter is resolved soon.

I have a suggestion what about an option to look for similar
categories, for example adding an option beside the write comment
option and it's name [Similar Pregames], and i have Live Messenger
you connect me to similar programs through this option
I hope you like the idea.
