"CleanMyMac: A tool every Mac users must use to clear their just files."
What do you like best about CleanMyMac X?

The best thing about CleanMyMac X is that on mac as we use software like Xcode and Adobe software a lot of junk files consume memory and on mac there is no other way to clear all this data. So clean my mac is an awesome tool for this. We can also free up RAM and clear some malware too. With clean my mac there is a feature of Space lens in that the whole system is scanned and showed how much memory is consumed in which software. Also while uninstalling software sometimes junk files remain in the system., we can also uninstall software using CleanMyMac.

What do you dislike about CleanMyMac X?

In this sometimes RAM consumption is shown false and that's a minor problem also when a mobile phone is connected to the same network, it shows how much battery and storage are available which is a little data privacy issue for us.

What problems is CleanMyMac X solving and how is that benefiting you?

CleanMyMac X by MacPaw is an awesome tool and junk cleaning problems, also we can update software from there and find cache files and clean them all these problems can be solved using this software.

"Gets the job done very well, a bit of a hassle."
What do you like best about CleanMyMac X?

I like how modern and quick the UI is compared to the competition, and how unlike some competitors, Macpaw doesn't use it's program to advertise other services\program. The file management features have been my main reason to use this program for a while, specifically space lens which makes it really easy to map storage usage and remove old\unnecessary files. The other features are fine but that feautre got me.

What do you dislike about CleanMyMac X?

The program has a tendancy to use quite a lot of CPU power while idle, which is easy to fix by turning off the health monitor feature, but it's really annoying. The applications updater also fails quite a lot and only works about 40% of the time.

What problems is CleanMyMac X solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use CleanMyMac X to manage my storage devices and clear spsace when necessary. I also use it to keep my computer safe and up to date and optimize it's performance.

"Useful if you're not so familiar with using mac"
What do you like best about CleanMyMac X?

Easy to use, little learning curve. Different features are well layed out. As a Mac beginner sometime ago, this app helped me a lot to organise the files and things in my laptop.

What do you dislike about CleanMyMac X?

After some time, once I got much more familiar with using mac, I realised I don't need this app. I can easily run the cleaning of my mac in other ways native to mac.

What problems is CleanMyMac X solving and how is that benefiting you?

As a beginner on mac sometime ago, the problem solved with CleanMyMac X was to get started with maintaining my mac nicely, to get me started with keeping the health of the laptop.

"Just use it to uninstall some software that for some reason I cant find how to remove all the files."
What do you like best about CleanMyMac X?

I think the interface is easy to use, so there is not much to consider, so when an app is causing troubles, Cleanmymac helps me get rid of those. Sometimes I find it hard to uninstall some apps, and that's when CMM comes to the rescue.

What do you dislike about CleanMyMac X?

I think there should be an option to auto-optimize the mac without the needed actions from the user. I wish this tool could be integrated with macOS and avoid paying for this essential functionality, shame on apple.

What problems is CleanMyMac X solving and how is that benefiting you?

Some apps I test from the internet are from shady developers, and I feel insecure when they don't work as expected. Having Cleanmymac gives me peace of mind to deeply delete them, avoiding the potential virus.

"Helpful but can be pricy if not absolutely needed"
What do you like best about CleanMyMac X?

I like that CleanMyMac X works quickly and easily identifies file types for me. Having files sorted into piles that I can individually look through, or groups that I know I can fully delete, is very helpful. The user interface is also very user-friendly and aesthetically pleasing.

What do you dislike about CleanMyMac X?

It sends me a lot of notifications since I have them enabled. I don't need these notifications, as they're basically just "reminders" to buy a pro plan. I also think that the yearly price is a bit steep if it's not something that I absolutely need.

What problems is CleanMyMac X solving and how is that benefiting you?

CleanMyMac X has allowed me to save space on my laptop, which clears up space for new files. When I'm in a pinch and need to make space for an app or large download, I can access a quick rundown of what is on my Mac so that I can clean it up.
