What Does MacKeeper Do?

In a nutshell, MacKeeper helps keep your Mac safe from the harm and threats of Trojans, viruses, and other forms of damaging software that can pose a risk to the integrity of your machine. Aside from this, it’s also a bespoke solution for recovering files which you’ve accidentally deleted. Now, this may all sound well and good, some detractors of the program will say. But the truth is that there’ve been plenty of reports claiming that the software isn’t safe and that it is a form of malware.

So, how can a program that promises safety and protection actually be a threat against said protection? Users are trying to purchase peace of mind and, instead, they receive the complete opposite. In our view, MacKeeper is completely safe and, hence, worth the purchase. Yes, programs that can affect the integrity and performance of a Mac computer do exist; MacKeeper, however, isn’t one of them, in our experience. What’s more, it actually doesn’t even slow down the machine or cause a processor lag. As such, in this respect, yes, MacKeeper is a purchase worth making.

How Efficient Is MacKeeper?

In terms of efficiency in use and cost efficiency, we’re happy to report that the verdict is also positive. Yes, MacKeeper does have a few snags here and there, but we’re hoping the program will be improved in time, thus getting rid of those small (yet pesky issues). Here’s our complete report in terms of MacKeeper’s efficiency:

1. Theft Protection

The theft protection feature on MacKeeper is somewhat complex to use, as it involves installing and activating Anti-Theft, as well as logging into Zeobit, in order to report the theft. However, this feature is probably priceless, given the rising incidence of Mac computer thefts. If you’re buying MacKeeper in order to make sure your Mac computer stays with you, then you’re in it to get your money’s worth. Not only will the module alert you of the thief using your computer, but it can also reveal the thief’s whereabouts for you.

2. Permanent File Deletion

Is this function actually useful, some may ask themselves? If you’ve ever considered selling your Mac, it most definitely is. It will delete files beyond the point of recovery via file recovery software. In other words, you can be sure that no one will ever get access to your personal information. Of course, there is some risk in using this feature, in the sense that you want to make absolutely sure you are not deleting files you may later need. However, when used with precaution, this feature is absolutely amazing and definitely worth the money.

3. Malicious URL Blocker

MacKeeper will alert you when you are about to access an Internet address which other users have reported as damaging for their computers. In doing so, it pools data from several databases and gradually removes websites that have been labeled as questionable. MacKeeper usually does a good job at correctly identifying malicious websites, but it has also been known to block the occasional safe website.

Our Verdict on MacKeeper

MacKeeper has got a ton of other great features, such as a file finder, a backup feature, and an update tracker. Though the price of the MacKeeper is steeper than that of CleanMyMac 2, our verdict is that the program is worth the money. Of course, it all depends on your specific needs, in terms of Mac upkeep and functions – but anyone who wants a feature-packed program should definitely check this one out.

If you've had a Mac for a while, there's a good chance you've come across an ad for a software called Mackeeper. It's a Cleaning utility originally developed by Zeobit LLC which was acquired by Kromtech Alliance Corp, a German-based IT investment and development company, in 2015. You can check out their website by clicking the button below:

Mackeeper has been under some heavy criticism in the Apple community for advertising heavily. In this post, I'll review the tool itself and uncover some of the truths about Mackeeper that will help you decide if it's worth your money or not.

Is Mackeeper a “virus”?

Mackeeper parent company, Kromtech Alliance Corp, advertise their products heavily. That advertising includes annoying popups that sometimes start downloading mackeeper automatically to the user's computer. For this reason, many people label it as a virus that is sneakily trying to install itself on their Macs.

The truth is, even if the download automatically starts from a popup, you can still cancel it. If you don't manage to cancel it, the software won't install itself on your Mac unless you open the .dmg file and install it yourself.

Yes, those are seriously aggressive marketing tactics and I think Kromtech should rethink their marketing strategy but I won't call mackeeper a virus just because of that. It is not a virus/scam. It's just that the parent company is notorious for its aggressive advertising campaigns.

Why is Mackeeper disliked in the Apple community?

We live in an age where we'll believe just about anything we read on the internet. Most of the people who bash mackeeper haven't tried it. They just read a negative forum/blog post about it and believe Mackeeper to be whatever the post says. This kind of a chain effect continues and coupled with Kromtech's aggressive advertising, gives Mackeeper a bad name in the Apple community.

This is why I decided to get a license myself and test it out myself on my Mac. Below is my impartial review of some of the tools Mackeeper has.

Premium

I also worked out a deal with the Kromtech guys. They've hooked me up with a 66% percent discount on the 2-year plan. That means you can save $240 if you buy it using the link below. It's not just for the 2-year plan though, the discount applies to all plans, even the smallest one.

Now, on with the actual review…

Premium

Installation is pretty simple. You download the .dmg file, open it, and follow the on-screen instructions.

Here is how the main screen looks:

Memory Cleaner:

My Mac has 4 gigs of memory and sometimes it struggles to give the best performance due to lack of memory. Running Mackeeper every now and then helps me free up some RAM and that comes in real handy. I just ran the memory cleaner and managed to free almost 400MB of RAM.

Duplicate Finder:

Mackeeper Premium Cleverbridge

The duplicates finder detects file copies that take up hard disk space on your Mac. It groups such identical files even if they were renamed so that you can decide to delete them or transfer them to an external storage device to free up hard disk space on your Mac.

You can also group the duplicate files by file types. For example, clicking on “video” tab in the duplicates finder module will only show duplicate video files. Here's a screenshot of the duplicates finder screen:

Smart Uninstaller:

This is a nice handy tool to uninstall apps from your mac properly. Just deleting apps from the “Applications” folder is not enough. This is where Mackeeper comes in. It shows you a list of apps you can choose to uninstall from. Then after uninstalling it, it scans your entire hard disk for leftover files associated to that app and removes them. This not only saves storage space but also helps with the performance of your mac.

Login Items:

This module simply shows you the list of apps that start with your mac. You can add or remove apps in your login items by clicking the + or – sign.

Disk Usage:

Mackeeper Premium Plus Series

The disk usage module scans your hard disk and lists all files and folders present on it along with the size of the folder right next to its name. The folder size is displayed in 4 colors (red, orange, yellow, green) depending on the size of the folder.

Anti Theft:

Mackeeper Premium Plus Manual

The anti-theft module serves two purposes. One, it prevents unauthorized access to your mac. Two, it helps you track your mac in case it gets stolen. You set it up once, and in case your mac gets stolen, you can use the web interface on mackeeper's website to track your Mac's location and even take a photo of the intruder/thief using your Mac's iSight camera.
