Couldn't live without it!

Generally very good and simple
When you have broken packages it can be a bit of a pain.

A simple manager for getting updates and managing upgrades to the next release

Updates should be managed by Ubuntu Software Center for appearance purposes. This software works great, however when the Ubuntu Software Center could manage updates itself instead of having another program doing it things would be pretty cool.

It is very good and easy to use but, It should install the updates automatically and it should notify us of available updates instead of opening the window and minimizing it immediately.

This makes Ubuntu A Good OS............
Majority of the software can be updated from one-place................
Its good that it asks us before updating and if it doesn't it make take a lot of bandwidth without our permission............... I love this software

I just it to give updates a bit more faster!

I've tried older versions of linux, though this is the first with Ubuntu, and have been very impressed. This application is one of the biggest reasons why!

It's great, it makes it easy to install update. It seems to be one of the easyest ways to do updates (on every operating system I've used so far).

This is a great tool.

However, it would be even better if *all* of the updates would install automatically in the background, so that I'd never have to authenticate when I want weekly updates, etc.

"Update Manager" is very useful for finding applications that we need. But this could be made even better if we see only system related applications in "System".

Can I upgrade from Zorin OS to windows 7

This application makes Ubuntu very low maintenance, because it updates virtually all your apps and services at once in an organized manner.

as a first time user of ubuntu i can only say yeah yeah yeah the ease of use its so simple and soft like a babies bum

Notifies daily for items removed if they are standard Ubuntu programs, even if set to update only weekly. No way to block updates for any programs.

This program completely simplifies the computer update experience. No more going to multiple websites all the time to find and install simple updates: This program finds updates for all your programs and notifies you when needed. Perfect. Simple. Genius.

Very easy..however It never has jived with apt-get! and many functions in user options are not there. Good for basic function and dependable.

There is nothing particularly wrong with Update Manager except when you first install Ubuntu, I would not have known to look in Setttings -> Other Software during the installation. I don't believe it was entirely clear as to what I was missing out on by having half of your sources unchecked from the beginning. I needed reviews for that information. And, Update Manager does not seem to lessen the use of apt-get or aptitude.

Best for new apps. Quick, but cannot handle app errors & complications.

Every time there are new updates available, Update Manager comes through.

Unlike OS X's update manager, which seems to only work 60% of the time, every time.

And Windows Update, which seems to need to update itself all the time, before it can update Windows.

Great but download was slow

Lots of room for improvement
