Cons
Con Runs each application's uninstaller
What IOBit does is run the uninstaller for every application that you have chosen to uninstall. Unfortunately since most of the time uninstallers require user intervention this doesn't really save you any time since you still will need to be clicking "Next" buttons.
Con License maxes out at 3 PCs
Competitors offer much more, even unlimited.
Con Expensive
Not so specialized in uninstalling for its price. Most tools are not so uninstall related and rather random.
Con No official portable version
However, an unofficial portable version exists over at portableapps.com. It requires admin privileges on the computer that you use it on.
Con Wrong program size on the list
Even after using refresh function.
Con Cannot bulk uninstall
The free edition does not support bulk uninstalling (uninstalling multiple software programs at once). For that you will need to use a different product such as the pro big brother product of GeekUninstaller, Uninstall Tool.
