TOO MANY ADVERTISEMENTS AS NOTIFICATIONS OF WINDOWS WHILE THEIR SOFTWARE IS INSTALLED IN WINDOWS!!!

I used their product many years ago (10 or more), it was okay but not great I have found better. But they are impossible to get out of your bank accounts and Paypal. They just keep deducting money and I don't seem to be able to stop them through Paypal's automated systems.
My advice is do not go near them in the first place.

Although the consultation was conducted in English via chat, it quickly achieved the desired result. Therefore, I can highly recommend it.

I appreciate the concerns that many have had accessing support for this software as I have in the past as well. Plus many times I have had issues with the software itself. However, as a long term user (since 2012) I find that the software has year-over-year become better and better. I recently upgraded again for 3 years and found it easy to do so with tech support (not using any of the many vendors they have).

In 2022, their Smart Defrag product damaged one of my hard drives while it was running. They didn't care. They told me it wasn't their fault. In 2023, Malware Fighter damaged my installed software. In 2024, they extended my subscription, but charged me 20 euros more. In 2025, I bought one-year licenses in the summer, and now when I entered them, it shows that they cut 140 days from the total purchased. That was the last time I made the mistake of buying anything from them. Given how unreliable and uncaring they have been, I'd rather get their products for free from other websites!

iobit software updater says that everything is up to date, yet when using another program I get 9 different programs that need updates

I have become forgetful in my later years, and over the pasr two minths managed to place multiple orders for the same package of software. It took IOBIT only one day to get the refunds in place. Wonderful service! Thank you.

Frustrating as I like their software and have always renewed manually in the past for the best deals. If you accidentally forget to cancel the auto renewal it says you should get a 7-day warning that it is about to renew. I got mine this morning with a warning that there was 0 days to auto renewal which I picked up within minutes and I was charged whilst waiting for the access key to get to the website to stop it. Thanks for making my day today stressful, I'm hoping the refund request goes smoothly, I'll update here if it doesn't.

IObit markets through a reseller called Paddle. When I received a cancellation notice and wanted to understand why, I was unable to reach iObit except through Paddle. This reseller hides behind a poorly designed chatbot that took fifteen minutes answering questions it choose to ask while ignoring mine. When the issue finally arrived at iObit, they responded swiftly and effectively.

Very Disappointed as a Paid PRO Subscriber — Far Too Many Ads, Unwanted Installs, and No Respect for Users
Review:
I’m writing this as a paid PRO subscriber of several IObit products, and unfortunately my experience has been extremely disappointing. I expected professional, reliable software — instead I’ve dealt with constant interruptions and behavior that feels intrusive and disrespectful to the user.
Across multiple laptops and desktops, IObit programs repeatedly acted autonomously in ways I never requested. Pop-ups appear at random, ads continue even though I’m a paying customer, and the software is constantly pushing “suggestions” that feel more like aggressive marketing than useful features.
What bothered me most is that the software repeatedly tried to install additional IObit/iTop tools that I never asked for — such as iTop VPN, Software Updater, and iTop Easy Desktop. These installs felt pushy, unexpected, and went far beyond what I would consider normal behavior for premium utilities. As a user, I want control over what runs on my system, and this experience made me feel like the software was making decisions for me.
Instead of improving my system, the constant advertising, pop-ups, and forced recommendations made my devices feel more cluttered and disruptive. It’s frustrating, especially considering I’m paying for the “PRO” versions.
This review reflects my personal experience as a long-time customer, but based on what I’ve seen, I cannot recommend IObit or iTop software to anyone who values transparency, user control, and a clean, reliable system. I strongly suggest exploring alternative tools.

I recommend avoiding IObit products entirely. One of their programs showed a close to full-screen Black Friday pop-up that could not be closed, ignored Alt+F4 and Task Manager, and stayed locked on top of everything. It effectively took control of my PC. The only way to get rid of the pop-up was to click on the "casino" wheel. This is just not acceptable.
After uninstalling, I found background tasks still running, which is not acceptable for a system utility. I have reported this behaviour to Microsoft Security Intelligence as a Potentially Unwanted Application.
I have also received renewal reminders even though my current licenses still have several months left
Bottom line: this experience was bad enough that I would advise others to stay away. I have uninstalled all Iobit products.

The absolute worst and among the most degenerate software companies out there, with nothing but ill intent, their software serves no beneficial purpose to users or pc's whatsoever, its amazes me they even have customers when what they offer is the absolute lowest quality, just pure dogs*it, either collecting unimaginable amounts of data, telemetry, logs and heavy background tasks constantly running, which most likely includes a backdoor, as it acts beyond intrusive, it might as well be called a subscription based spyware.

Despite the really annoying pop ups and the autorenewal on anything you buy (that you can turn off), I do find Advanced System Care a good product and have been using it for a few years

Reply from IObit
I have been charged a license renewal for a product that I no longer use. I have had extreme difficulty processing my request for refund.
I was able to have my refund processed in a timely basis.

A company that cannot help but to bundle software into their apps. A simple case of once bitten twice shy! It wouldnt be so bad if all the bundled software was CLEARLY identified so you could refuse it but its not. To me a company who trades in this fashion is not worth buying from.

Nadat ik een nogal ingewikkelde vraag had gesteld kreeg ik als antwoord:
At this moment, the standard support language for the 2Checkout online support system is English. Please resend your message written in English .
Hun reclame kan echter wel in het Nederlands. Zo kun je de boot ook afhouden.

Reply from IObit
Ordered an IObit Pro Bundle via 2Checkout. Once installed, each of the 4 products in the bundle told me to upgrade to Pro at an additional cost, even though I had ordered the Pro version, 2Checkout immediately said they were just the reseller and I should contact IObit directly. Despite sending two tickets, there is absolutely no response - no receipt confirmation, never mind a response to my query. Absolute waste of money - looks like a scam.

Very fast reply and they fixed it right away. Better than most others support with speed and getting it done.

Reply from IObit
The program works but is spoiled by pop up ads whenever you press a link, for more of their products. So bad that after only a day I uninstalled it, despite being in touch with their support. No problem getting in touch with them but it seems nothing will change despite their promises to improve, suggesting they know full well what the problem is, the extra business from all the spam must outweigh the need to fix things - a cynical response that has cost them my account. I would not recommend this outfit.

Oct 20/25 I was having trouble with my computer. I purchased Advanced Care System but I was unable to receive the installation code. I sent a text to the customer support and October 21 I received the code with easy to follow instructions for installation. Customer service is extremely high for this company. They are very fast,curtious, and knowledgeable in dealing humainly with people who are under stress but happy to be finally given fair, understanding treatment. Thank you
