My Verdict

I have found the task manager quite useful. The free version is quite good as an alternative of Windows Task Manager. It is light and better looking. The bug tracker feature is good too. I faced a bug that I reported via this tool. You can request new features via online form.
An option to manage running services and drivers would be useful.
A portable version would be great.
