Which is better – Disk doctor Mac vs Ccleaner 2012?

Hi Harden,

Well Ccleaner is and has to be the widely used utility for cleaning junk files. It is popular for it's third party add ons. It cleans junk files from 270 applications and it is supportive to html5 and thus helps in DB cleaning management for chrome, firefox, safari and others. But one drawback this utility has is it cant clean junk files from prefetch and C:UsersusernameAppDataLocalTemp folder.

 

On the other hand disk doctor has a very limited disk scan priority so it would clean lot less junk files from your PC or laptop if you have 250 GB of disk space it only cleans 650 MB which is roughly 1% so you don't get a lot out of it. 

 

In my opinion Ccleaner would be the best

 

Thank you

CCleaner and Disk Doctor vary in different features.

 

According to this review, Disk Doctor's performance is fast just as compared to others that are built-in or compatible with Mac. You also have the option to select different categories where to perform the cleanup. But the only feature to keep an eye on in this software is that it only cleans up disk space of the drive, just like other utilities basically perform.

 

 

For the CCleaner, it features various functions where it describes itself as cleaning, system optimization and privacy tool, just as described by this review site. This software includes cookie management tool, software/apps uninstaller, system repair as well as erasing free space on the hard drive.

 

 

Having this comparison mentioned, it is obvious that CCleaner is an all-around software tool that can perform different optimization and management tasks. Therefore, CCleaner is the one recommended over Disk Doctor.
