These are certainly the most important things we look for in a software updater.

We really like the fact that it works so quickly, can be run from a flash drive, and supports truly automatic updates. The only thing we don't like about it is that the user interface isn't quite as friendly, but don't skip trying this tool just on those grounds. It can also work as a simple software uninstaller. There are lots of optional settings you can enable, like disabling silent installs, enabling beta updates, forcing programs to shut down before updating them and many others.

You can update all of them at once, or uncheck the ones you don't want to patch (or, of course, let the scheduled auto-updates do it for you automatically). It's easy to quickly tell the difference between applications that are already updated and ones that are outdated because the green titles indicate up-to-date software, while the red ones show outdated programs.
