PRESS RELEASE
D’Iberville, Miss., July 26, 2010 – SlimWare Utilities, a cloud-based provider of data management and computer repair solutions, today launched the public beta for a suite of software products that use cloud technology and community-based input to improve the performance and function of personal computing products. The new products are available for free download at www.slimwareutilities.com.
Aimed at consumers who want faster computers and an error-free online experience, SlimComputer, SlimCleaner and SlimDrivers update, repair and optimize consumer devices, including PCs, tablets, netbooks, Smartphones and other wireless devices. SlimWare Utilities uses cloud technology and a community-based approach to gather input from IT professionals and make unique, personalized decisions that improve computer hardware and software decisions.
“Community-based input will revolutionize PC performance,” said Chris Cope, CEO of SlimWare Utilities, Inc. “Our crowd-sourced approach lets users rate different applications and functions, leveraging the power of community for the first time in PC repair and maintenance. And, because we’re cloud-based, we can combine all the tools that consumers need for repairing and updating software and hardware to provide the best, fastest, most convenient computing experience in an easy, one-step process.”
SlimCleaner The IT professional’s must-have, SlimCleaner uses cloud technology and a community-based approach to gather data from IT users and make unique, personalized optimizations to the software and to users’ computers. With one-click accessibility, SlimCleaner establishes better connections between the operating system and the software that runs on it, boosts a computer’s speed and creates a better, faster, online experience. In addition, the hijack section of SlimCleaner scans a computer to locate all start-up locations, Internet settings, network settings, system services, browser plug-ins and other Windows settings that can been modified or “hijacked” by third party or malicious applications. It then uses cloud technology and community-sourcing to compare against aggregated scan results in the cloud and make recommendations on what to remove or reset to default.
SlimComputer Essential for anyone buying a new computer, SlimComputer removes unused, pre-installed software from new computers for faster start-up times and enhanced performance. In addition, SlimComputer maintains stripped-away programs in the cloud for re-install later, if desired by the user. SlimComputer removes the bloat, and its cloud storage design lets consumers pick and choose any programs they want to re-install, for a personalized, customized computing experience.
SlimDrivers makes consumers’ hardware, such as printers, work better. SlimDrivers is the industry’s most advanced software for stabilizing, updating and repairing the connections between an operating system and computer hardware, such as printers, sound cards, video cards, Bluetooth devices and other peripherals. SlimDrivers uses crowd-sourcing to spider and aggregate millions of devices. Using a cloud-based system, SlimDrivers not only detects when a driver needs updating, but also identifies the proper executable for a system and starts the driver install automatically.
