Review:

After running the registry defrag and restarted the computer I notice that Outlook 2007 opened more quickly than normal and the size of my registry went from 57.21 MB to 52.07 MB.

The interface is clear and modern and gives me a sense of confidence in the overall program.
This program gives you a wide range of optimization features. Unfortunately I was not able to try them all as this is a trial version.

In addition to optimization features it also gives you various network and misc tools such as automatically keeping your computer clock accurate, lookup of both domain names and IP addresses.

One thing that I thought was cool is you can customize the standard menu items in the Microsoft Office dialog window to be folders that you actually save to. I never use "My Documents" and so this feature is useful to me. I have my own way of filing away my files. I do wish however it would be for all save dialog boxes and not just Microsoft Office.

This program also claims to optimize specific programs like your browser (Firefox, IE, etc.) and programs from Microsoft Office.
I have looked at a lot of different programs that optimize your computer and I have yet to see so many options. Optimize the windows core, file system and windows services.

This gives a novice user access to several optimization features that may affect system performance.

Unfortunately I am unable to attest to the effectiveness of all these optimization features because I don't have the full version. However it is likely to improve performance to some degree and is less expensive verses buying more memory.

Conclusion:

I would recommend this program
