For
Windows users, keeping applications up to date can be a hassle. Some
programs alert you to new updates, but wouldn’t it be better to have a
single program that keeps an eye on all your software?
Softonic
keeps a master list of applications and will query Softonic's database
for updates, alerting you when an update for a program is available,
quickly and unobtrusively in the notification tray. Click the 'update'
button and the .exe will be downloaded and you can install it like a
normal application. Softonic doesn't support uninstalling yet (but our
development team tells us that this feature is coming soon).
Softonic's
new application also includes full reviews of applications to help you
decide whether an app is right for you. Access user reviews,
screenshots, and videos, all within Softonic. Screenshots and videos
show up beautifully.
Another
nice feature of the application is lists. You can browse premade lists
from Softonic's editors or you can make your own app lists and share
them. Drag and drop applications into a list to keep track of them.
These lists are synced when you log into Softonic, making it super easy
to download your favorite apps on a new machine.
There
are still a few features that aren't fleshed out but the program is
solid overall. It would be nice to have a setting to automatically
delete the installer files after installation. There's also no way to
change your avatar within Softonic (but you can still do this on the
website).
Overall,
this new application from Softonic is a solid product that provides
some very useful features. Softonic lets you keep your apps up to date,
as well as helping you discover, research, and educate yourself on the
best software found on Softonic.
Full disclosure: Softonic (for Windows) is an application developed by Softonic.
