Outstanding! Easy registration. It scans quickly. I am especially impressed that it's giving me the option to download updates from the developers' sites. Excellent! Thank you, KCSoftwares and GAOTD!

Brilliant product. The way it tells me what updates are available & then directs me to the relevant website lets me decide what to do. Especially useful regarding software I have got via other GiveAwayOfTheDay - I know I canot upgrade - but I can then decide if I want to purchase.

Thank you Kyle, thank you GOTD, and thank you brenda for that portable tip. Next new laptop, I will sort GOTD titles into their own subfolder so they'll be easier to exclude!

The other ones I need to hunt down and exclude are my Ninite installs. If you keep your Ninite installer files and run them as scheduled tasks, they will keep everything auto-updated. Or run them manually. Of course that doesn't cover nearly as many apps as Sumo, but it's great for the ones it does cover, plus it's pretty foolproof for your non-tech-savvy relatives since it keeps the bloatware and malware away.

This is an update to my earlier comment. MY BAD, I was WRONG. The developer reached out and I followed the instructions which for whatever the reason I didn't do the first time. Thanks...

I see. Thanks.

Good software, used Lite version for some time. If all you use is Windows OS and an office suite, no need for it. But if you use many small programs, each that do only one thing but does it great, this can save you much time.
It looks for updates for all programs it finds, not just a list of common programs. It can be made to scan drives other than C: , even thumb drives or certain folders. Some of the updates it finds may be Alpha or Beta versions. They might be better, or they may just have better bugs.
It may list the same helper program several times, each a different version. Several different programs may be using different versions, each requiring that particular version. Updating the helper might 'break' the main program. Hint: turn on "Show file path" in Options. Helps in figuring out who uses what.
Thanks for software.

getting oops message on download site and running in endless circles !

It opens new tabs for every program I'm updating, and clicking on those tabs brings up a screen asking me to buy Sumo--even though it's already installed and activated. No sign that it's actually updating the selected program.

Does what it states and is easy to install and use. No complaints here!

I am curious and hope the developer, Kyle, steps back in and addresses it. Will this item work, say in 6 mths time, should 1 develop an issue with the hard drive and need to do fresh installs. I ask because had a crash on my drive, and a number of programs would not allow a fresh install, even thou they claimed to be "xx year license. And no the year wasnt up.
JUst a side note, thanks Kyle for actually responding to concerns. We find a lot of companies don't seem to care anymore, just dump and run.

would be nice to be able to download, but sending in my Email dosen't work, and I don't want to use any other site.

I wonder if it can tell the difference between updatable paid-for programs and giveaway programs that require payment after updating.

Software that detects updates but not for itself?

All the comments about Windows 10: I don't know why the list of operating systems goes up to only Windows 8. I've used it on Windows 10 for more than a year with no problems at all. It works great!

I use the portable edition with Windows 10 and it works.

Tested, and works very well on Windows 10.
A keeper - With all the security breaches now happening everywhere, it's very important to keep the installed products updated.

Would be great if it worked on win10

Really not usable under Windows 10??

This is actually a good program. But don't use the installer. Instead visit the publisher's site to find the portable version. It will be the yellow symbol on the far right under the product download. Just make sure it is a .zip file and not an ,exe file. After you download the .zip file, extract it to a location on your computer. You can register with the Registration Name and Registration Key from the readme file. Thank you GOTD team and KCSoftwares.
