If you already started exploring your Mac, you should have found many useful tools such as Time Machine, FileVault, Disc Utility, etc. However, if these words sound strange or you want all tasks to be in one place, probably you need the utility software. Moreover, despite its multifunctionality and convenience, Mac OS X doesn’t include all important maintenance features. That’s why I have searched for different multipurpose Mac OS X maintenance utilities and made the must-try list.

MacKeeper - 16 Utilities for Mac OS X
|
I discovered MacKeeper last year. Since then, every month I’ve been performing the computer routine, during which I back up all my files and run my Macbook through MacKeeper’s system scan, Fast Cleanup, and Update Tracker.
MacKeeper is software for Mac OS X that has 16 built-in maintenance features. The main advantage of this program is a large variety of functions: apart from cleaning tools, there are also the Antivirus, Safe Browsing, Encryption, and shredding tools. In total there are 16 features in 1 program. Many Mac users might have noticed that Apple eliminated the Secure Empty Trash feature in El Capitan. That’s no longer the issue if you have MacKeeper. You can use Shredder to erase all your sensitive files.
Since September 2015, I have relied on MacKeeper Shredder that did its job perfectly. Functionality of other tools such as Login Items, Backup and Default Apps is available in the Mac OS X settings as well. However, MacKeeper makes it more convenient with all those functions gathered in one place.

DaisyDisk - Disc Space Analyser |
DaisyDisk is another maintenance program that is focused on cleaning the disk space in a fast and convenient way. The first good thing about DaisyDisk is that this is a beautifully crafted piece of software. At first click it performs a quick scan of the system and gives a brief overview of the disk space in a diagram. Thanks to the interactive map I could see the excessively large folders and files. After checking the content I deleted the unneeded files. The big plus is that the scanning process took a few seconds, and all my system files were protected.

CCleaner - Optimization and Cleaning Tool
|
CCleaner is a good choice if you want to free up the hard disk space on your Mac. It’s compatible with 10.5 and later versions. As the name already suggests, its main function is cleaning: the software scans your system and deletes junk files, doing this job quickly and easily. Although I didn’t notice any significant change in performance, it’s a good piece of software to keep your Mac in shape.
