Hidden costs - but maybe worth it

While this little pen drive does come with some software to install that's not all that it really is. The software basically sets your personal computer up for a remote connection to the Clean Machine Concierges. But what they don't mention in the product details is the fact that you will have to pay a 9.99 a month fee for use of this product after the first year and you only get 6 scheduled maintenance of your system in that year, not monthly like it would have you to believe in other parts of the description.

While it seems like a great idea when you first glance at this device it's more than what it appears to be.

Why are they selling this device for so much when you don't really get all that much. you're basically paying them to log into your computer 6 times in a years time for 120 bucks. So each time someone connects to your computer it's 20.00 bucks that you have paid for that.

Pros:
you don't have to do the work and they insure your system and they also help with ID theft
Kind of simple to use
Software comes on a small THUMB DRIVE, better than a CD!

Cons:
You have someone you have never met messing with your computer (you don't know if this person is going to take your work and sell it as theirs, or take some files and plaster them all over the internet)

Now yes this is a company that is licensed and insured and all that great stuff like that but I just haven't heard enough about them to put my trust in them with my personal files on my home PC. IE Family photos, work documents, My designs that haven't been patented yet and so much more. Call me a little paranoid but I need to know a lot more about this company than just a little video and a few good reviews before I go diving and using this product.

To me at this point I just don't trust it/them enough to take these risks!

Useful and compact, a bit expensive for the purpose but attractive

Costs more than it should (I'd estimate its real value at three dollars) but does what it needs to.

Yea quite a lotof units, but we buy for a group.  Probably a bit pricey - more than we planned but after getting them, we can see the product is quality and great material was used.  I think these will be winning products for us.  I think?  maybe some folk may be a bit afraid of the prices - but yea - you cant winn em all  ;-)
Keep it up guys.

It's a good value, but just be prepared to have to use your own knowledge of both taxes and software navigation in order to get the job done well.  I'm far from an expert in either field, so it's not that bad, just a little challenging.  But some of us would rather spend more time than money.

Really expensive until I got it as part of a price-reduction package.

I would have given a higher rating, but there are some parts that ramble on. However, on a more positive note, there are sections that I particularly found most useful and full of valuable lessons, such as to how it is much more than price elasticity that determines certain prices or how we have the existence of uniform pricings in the cinema business or why supermarkets often always have few cash registers open. Definitely worth a look for those who are interested and have always asked why does that happen as such in this industry?

Spent more on this but don't think it offers more than cheaper alternatives.

I like the product, but would be happier if the price were lower.

does what it's supposed to, though a little pricey in my opinion.

Easy to use but a little on the expensive side for what it is.

Considering the low cost, not bad.  Interesting read.

It is a good resource - the FREE upgrades make it worth the price.

Too expensive for what you get but quality stuff
