Check whether a new version of installed software is up-to-date

Install software on your machine and you'll expect it has been through rigorous internal testing so there are few problems after installation. Not always so, particularly when the majority of software is produced by individual developers.

As software is updated regularly, issues involving erratic software performance can simply be down to the particular version of the application you may be using. Even release software can include bugs and problems in early stages, with older versions of software may not be stable on a newer operating system.

SUMo (Software Update Monitor) is designed to help keep applications up-to-date. The simple update reminders that are integral to many applications are great if you use the software regularly, but SUMo will alert you when updates are available, even if you are not using a particular program.
