I recently find out that besides Tuneup utilities 2013, i found a program called "Fix-it Utilities Professional. So i was wondering does anyone of you have or had an experience with this program and is it good, better or worse than Tuneup utilities 2013?

My personal experience and opinion of this program is to stay away from it, as it can mess your system up with a quickness, especially if you do not know what you are doing with it.

I have to agree with illumination, but also when it says it can help and speed up your PC I say the opposite. It slows it down to a crawl.

Fix-it Utilities Professional is a dangerous product, stay away from it.
The product is complete junk. Tuneup Utilities is a much better product.

IObit Advanced SystemCare Free is my choice for these kind of products.
No need to buy any there are tons of freeware which are just as good or better.

Enjoy!!:D

I'd definitely be careful with Fix-it.

In comparison, while not as aggressive in cleaning settings, TuneUp compensates with impressive reliability. I haven't experienced a single issue with it in over 4 years now on multiple PCs. It also easily wins in the novelty stakes - its features are usually introduced in other similar software, a case of copying being the sincerest form of flattery. The problem is that TUU giveaways are few and far between if you don't feel like paying for it.

ASC, as Littlebits pointed out, is a compelling alternative, given that you can easily get a license for the PRO version from the frequent IObit giveaways. The Free edition is good enough, too.

And as Umbra said, CCleaner is usually all you need.

Edit: spelling

Fix-it-utilities Pro is definitely a product to stay away from.They really prey on the average user claiming magical things with a program that is junk and yes it will do magical things,as magically mess up your computer.I have used Tune Up and Iobit ASC .I havent used anything but CCleaner and a little knowledge for a very long time.I did check out ASC when they had a giveaway and If I was to use a Utility besides CCleaner I think ASC is a very good utility.They also have a good uninstaller which I actually like a bit better than Revo
