NO this does NOT “help you update all your installed application”, NOR “automatically scans and displays a list of all your installed applications”, NOR “Automatically scans and lists all your applications”.
It has a very limited list of programs it can install and or update.

A lot can change in two years. This product definitely needs a re-review … and here it is.
I’m a fan of Glary Utilities. Without a doubt, Glary Utilities is my favourite system cleaner and optimiser available on the market. It’s lightweight and easy to use. It includes everything you could need and it has minimal impact on your system resources. This product is the sister product to Glary Utilities.
When you first run Glary Software Update Pro (GSUP), you are presented with a list of applications that GSUP is aware of. It then scans them one by one to see if you have the software installed and if it needs to update. If an application needs an update, you see a small text message below the icon for the program identifying the old version and the new version (eg. 1.0 -> 1.1). You also receive a notification of the number of outdated apps.
Pros
– The application makes it easy to update and install all of your apps in a single click
Cons
– It’s very difficult to tell what apps are installed on your computer
– It’s very hard to see the apps that are ready for update
– There’s no easy way to know where the installed application is located (eg. if you have two copies of an app installed, you won’t know which one will be updated)
Conclusion
Despite the app being very useful, its user interface is primitive. It can not filter to show you only the apps you have installed and it can not show you a consolidated list of apps to update. Further, there’s no metadata about the app you have installed. This is surprising for Glary who otherwise produce excellent software.
The crashes reported in the previous review by Malik have not happened on my system in my lengthy trial of this product.
