We are sure that no one would reject a possibility to save money, and that is exactly what Up Pro promises. This browser extension supposedly can find better deals for the products you are interested in whenever you are shopping online. Let’s say you are browsing bestbuy.com, and a deal appears listing the same product you are looking at with lower prices. Will you ignore this deal or click it? It is more likely that you will check the deal, but that does not necessarily mean that you will be provided with the best one online. You are likely to be provided with deals offered by the associates or partners of SHOPMANIA NET SRL (the creator of the program), but that does not mean that they will be the best. This is one reason to delete Up Pro. Read more »

Ideal Deal
Ideal Deal is not so ideal if you look at how it acts. Even though this program is meant to provide you with shopping deals, it is most likely that these “shopping deals” will disguise completely useless offers.

PiccShare
PiccShare is an advertisement-supported program that offers you a more convenient way to share your photos. It says you will save time because with it only a single click would be required to publish the selected image on a social network or send it via email.
