I have found this to be a very thorough uninstaller in both free and Pro versions. I do use it here i have nothing against IObit.

I would be inclined to buy the Pro version although the free one does a good job.
The two options of the Pro version which in my opinion can justify the purchase are:

- [New] Larger Real-time Database to Uninstall More Stubborn Programs

- Auto Clean the Leftovers of Programs Uninstalled by Other Uninstallers

The first one I believe is a reference to the leftovers database of known applications and this eliminates most residual files using a managed algorithm.
The second one completes the work of other uninstallers for a better and effective cleaning.

people usually do not uninstall stuffs everyday or every week so buying a pro version for an uninstaller is not really worth it, at least for me

I would buy the pro version because of the bigger database... even without this i would still buy
this top-notch program.
Sadly their are no lifetime licenses

Sure, but indeed I think that the target of people who can purchase the Pro version are the ones that usually test many apps, and this tool helps them in this direction.

Free version every-time. An uninstaller for me is not important enough to spend money on. I'm happy using free products or commercial products given away in special promotions. i.e. Giveaways.

I take a snapshot with RollBack Rx before and after I install a program, if it doesn't work I just restore to the previous point and it's completely wiped off. So I don't get the point of 'Uninstallers' to begin with but I did try this and if you're oddly in the mood to uninstall stuff from your machine it'll work just fine.

I do the same with AX64 V2

Well Iobit Uninstaller is something that people should not ignored but rather to test and see for it.

Many reviews are align in positive and Iobit's expertise is came from cleaning of leftovers.

 

[Exterminator]

I prefer the Pro versions of 3rd Party uninstallers.Although not currently using IObit,I have always found both free and pro versions to be good.
However the pro versions seem to do a more thorough job with more oprions.

I dont use anyone of them, I use Geek Uninstaller..

Vendors should just make proper uninstallers ad clean up their trash for the user, some vendors are having a laugh and it's ridiculous. For example, awhile back I installed AVG on an old test host system for some testing purposes, 3 weeks after using the uninstaller there were still traces left (e.g. running AVG processes - except the actual product itself was gone).

The point of an uninstaller is to remove the product after you're done with it, and obviously a snapshot isn't always an option because someone might be using the product for months, and then if they revert back to the snapshot they will lose other data. Snapshots isn't always an option in this scenario; not everyone uninstalls straight after installation, they may change their mind over time. Using a snapshot can be a lot of hassle if you want to remove a program you've had for months where you had previously made a snapshot before installing.

Regardless, there is also System Restore; the feature everyone seems to have forgotten about since I barely see it mentioned, although it supports for removing new program installations. In fact, as long as it's enabled, most reputable installers will/should create a System Restore Point prior to actually making any changes (e.g. Avast will do this say on case there is a problem).

Iobit uninstaller has some nice features , but it is not as thourough as Revo Uninstaller Pro , but then again is has some features that Revo does not have. it all comes down to personal preferences I guess

 

[DC47561]

Revo uninstaller free works really well for me.
