### "Un bon outil pour gérer son stockage (entre autres)"

July 23, 2023

5.0

Pros

CleanMyMac X est un outil très visuel et très facile à utiliser. J'apprécie le fait qu'il m'aide simplement à faire de la place sur mon Mac grâce à sa fonctionnalité qui me montre les dossiers et applications les moins utilisées. Le nettoyage est simple et rapide.

Cons

Le fait que Apple parle peu de CleanMyMac X est un frein, je serai rassurée de le savoir recommandé.

### "CleanMyMac als Monitoring "

August 18, 2023

5.0

Pros

Ich nutze CleanMyMac auf meinen Mac als Monitoring Tool um zu sehen, wie viel freien Speicher ich habe - was weg kann weil ich es nicht mehr viel nutze oder wo Speicher freigemacht werden kann, alles ist grafisch sehr schön dargestellt und kann einfach genutzt werden.

Cons

Leider erkannt das Tool nicht alle Sachen die am Mac laufen.

July 29, 2021

5.0

It seems to work.

Pros

Easy to use. Its graphical interface is a pleasure to use.

Its subscription model. As a matter of principle, I abhor subscription models.

### "Go to software for cleaning & file management"

March 3, 2022

5.0

Pros

This software does everything on it's own to clean out unnecessary files & gives you a report afterwards - I use it weekly if not twice a week

Cons

No cons! Was easy to install and very easy to continue using

### "Good Software Cleaning and Virus Checking (just be careful of what it deletes)"

October 29, 2023

4.0

Overall, it was a positive experience. I just would be more careful on what it does delete.

Pros

I thought the file filter efficiency was ideal. It went through my computer quickly and found unused files, while also checking to see if there were any viruses--thankfully all was clean.

Cons

It deleted some files while cleaning that it suspected I didn't need. Turns out a few months later I could've really used those files saved earlier.

### "Easy"

July 29, 2021

5.0

Pros

I'm just a personal user of my Mac and although not really a tech savvy person I found ease of installation and use a real bonus. To date no complaints

Cons

Nothing really, I find it really difficult to answer this one as all just fine.

Reason for choosing CleanMyMac

All of the above

### "CleanMyMac X review"

June 24, 2022

4.0

Pros

It gives a full view of large files on my computer and shows files/applications that are not frequently used. Also, the uninstaller application is impressive as it readily shows apps and groups them by type and shows left ofter files from previously deleted apps

Cons

On my MacBook it seems to give inaccurate reading for RAM usage.

March 26, 2023

5.0

Sehr solides Programm!

Pros

Sehr gute UI und UX/ die Erklärungen neben den Funktionen/ das Gefühl zu haben, alles nochmal selbst entscheiden zu können

### "Keeps my Mac humming."

July 29, 2021

5.0

Superb!

Pros

CleanMyMac is so easy to install and use and it's insanely inexpensive for the important task it handles of keeping my Mac running flawlessly.

Cons

I would love to see this product have a function that tells me exactly what needs to be done to make my web experience faster. I feel like the software does an amazing job of keeping my Mac running smoothly, but I'm not sure if it has functionality that makes my Mac faster.

July 30, 2021

4.0

Very helpful.

Pros

Very fast and effective. Interface is perfect

Cons

The button ‘delete old and large files’. Could be better. Show me where the files are and an extra safety button,warning or backup. Just in case …

### "It does what it says on the box!"

July 29, 2021

5.0

Keeping my Mac running at optimal levels means the I can run my business with my Mac without worrying about any hidden technical glitches, memory space constraints or speed issues.

Pros

So easy to use and fast. Other software I have used in the past was slow and cumbersome but CleanMyMac X takes seconds to get rid of unwanted junk, free up space and improve the speed of my Mac.

Cons

No problems or changes required. Every thing works just fine.

Pros

Simple to understand and to use. Reasonably fast

### "CleanMyMac product review"

July 31, 2021

5.0

Very positive. I could probably spend 24 hours a day trying to keep my laptop in peak working order. CleanMyMac is an effective time-saver.

Pros

A time saver, as much as anything. Much more effective than I could be if I tried to replicate its functionality myself by some other method.

Cons

I do wish - if it were even possible - more details on the items for which actions are being recommended after a scan.

July 29, 2021

5.0

I'm at my Mac all day doing work that's important to me, and it's good to know that trusted software is keeping my computer running smoothly and issue-free.

Pros

We're writers, not engineers, working on our own products and free-lance markets. We don't have time to spend on complicated, difficult software, but we want protection. CleanMyMac X delivers.

Cons

At this point I haven't had any complaints.

### "Probleme bei Anwendung auf altem iMac"

September 26, 2022

1.0

Zweifelhaft! Braucht ein guter Mac das überhaupt noch heutzutage?

Pros

Grundsätzlich gut und logisch aufgebaut - sehr übersichtlich

Cons

Seit dem ich das Programm verwende um Datenmüll aufzuräumen - seit gestern - stürzt mir ständig mein 2013er 27' iMac ab - oh Gott! Er läuft noch mit Mojave. Vielleicht ist das ja das Problem? Leider lässt er sich nicht auf Monterey upgraden... Also wohl nichts für alte Versionen?
