ReviewSaurus – Technology Rocks!

A couple of days back I had my laptop running on AC supply while I was listening to some of my favorite songs lying on my bed. And suddenly I dozed off only to wake up seven hours later and still finding my over 4 GB song-list being played. That’s when I started searching for a shutdown scheduler and came across this truly useful software called PowerOff.

Positives of PowerOff :

1. PowerOff is a simple shutdown scheduler which offers you a wide spectrum of actions to be chosen from. The count goes up to 11.

2. It also has the facility to alert you by running a particular program, issue a warning message or force close an application at the scheduled time. The scheduled time can be immediate, a particularly mentioned time or the moment when a process stops.

3. One can also control a remote computer if connected, in a similar way.

4. The interface is simple and all options are present in a single compact window.

5. You can also enable or disable the canceling of the scheduled activity.

6. To add to its merits, it is a standalone application and occupies less than 200 KB.

Negatives of PowerOff :

I couldn’t really find any negatives in it. All its functions worked fine on my PC and though I could not really test it on networked or remote computers, I doubt that it will have any sort of difficulty in those cases too.

Although the software itself doesn’t have a help menu, its website offers all the information that may be required.

Bottom Line :

Extremely useful tool
