Ashampoo Product Key
- Pros
Swift hardware scans. Fast driver downloads. Backup and restore features. Scheduler. Windows 10 integration.
- Cons
Some color-coded icon confusion. Relatively expensive.
- Bottom Line
Ashampoo Driver Updater keeps your PC running smoothly by automatically downloading the latest hardware drivers.
Updating drivers is vital to keeping your PC in tip-top condition. Sure, tune-up utilities are an important part of the equation, but sometimes you need to make sure that your PC's drivers are current to ensure that hardware and programs run correctly. Fortunately, Ashampoo Driver Update makes the task a breeze. The application highlights out-of-date drivers, downloads their most recent versions, and features tight integration with Windows 10. Despite Driver Updater's many benefits, it falls just a hair short of the award-winning status of Editors' Choice IObit Driver Booster Pro, as I'll explain.

Pricing and Compatibility
Priced at $39.99, Ashampoo Driver Updater is more expensive than IObit Driver Booster Pro and SlimWare Utilities DriverUpdate, two competing driver-update utilities. That price gets you a three-PC license. SlimWare Utilities DriverUpdate, which has a four-tier pricing scheme, also offers a three-PC license for $39.92—a single license is just $29.97. And IObit has a three-PC license for even less than that—just $22.95! If you live in a multi-PC home, IObit's product is an extremely attractive offering.

Ashampoo Driver Updater is compatible with PCs running the Windows 10, 8, and 7 operating systems. In fact, the utility is tightly integrated into Windows 10. It hooks into Action Center, so related alerts slide in and out of view. It's a nice touch that SlimWare Utilities DriverUpdate lacks.
Digging Deep
When you launch Driver Updater, the software quickly scans your PC for hardware and drivers. When the scan is complete, the application displays processor and RAM information, as well as the number of up-to-date and out-of-date drivers. SlimWare Utilities DriverUpdate and IObit Driver Booster Pro both dug up 44 out-of-date drivers on my work PC; SlimWare Utilities DriverUpdate unearthed 41 issues.
Like SlimWare Utilities DriverUpdate, Ashampoo Driver Update uses color-coded icons to indicate the status of each driver. I quickly understood that green icons represented up-to-date drivers, but I had no idea what the yellow icons represented. Unlike SlimWare Utilities DriverUpdate, Ashampoo Driver Updater doesn't explain the color scheme, so I emailed an Ashampoo representative and learned that the yellow icon represents a driver that has had an update available for less than 365 days. In addition, the red icon shows a driver that's had an update available for more than 365 days.
Like IObit Driver Booster Pro, Ashampoo Driver Update has a handy, at-a-glance read-out window that you can expand to full screen to take in all of the driver descriptions. Unfortunately, SlimWare Utilities DriverUpdate lacks that option, so all of its data is displayed in a somewhat cramped viewing area. Ashampoo's tool, however, lacks IObit Driver Booster Pro's cool interface skins and transparencies.
Ashampoo Winoptimizer Review
After clicking the Download All button, I was prompted by the software to create a restore point, should something go awry with one of the drivers. Driver Updater began downloading the appropriate drivers, and afterward, a driver-installation wizard appeared so that I could install them. It took just under 5 minutes for the app to install all the new drivers.
I further tested the software by intentionally deleting the Realtek High Definition Audio driver. After I rebooted the PC, Driver Updater downloaded a replacement driver—Microsoft's 'High Definition Audio Device'—that worked flawlessly when I played back MP3 and WAV files. I deleted several other drivers and Driver Updater found compatible replacements for those, too.
Ashampoo Driver Updater has a useful scheduling feature that lets you set the time (either daily or monthly) to check for new drivers. That's a relatively common feature in the category, one that IObit Driver Booster and SlimWare Utilities DriverUpdate possess. That said, IObit Driver Booster has a unique feature that prioritizes GPU drivers so that your graphics card is always running at peak performance. That's a feature anyone who's serious about PC Games will appreciate.
Gets the Job Done
If you want to keep your drivers up to date, Ashampoo Driver Update is a fine tool for getting the job done. In testing, it found missing and out-of-date drivers, and it features a scheduler, backup and restore capabilities, and Windows 10 integration. Still, Editors' Choice winner IObit Driver Booster is a slightly superior driver updater, offering the best overall bang for the buck.
