Bonzi Buddy

Pros: Nothing
Cons: His stupid jokes, his awful voice, everything.

Don't you even think about getting Bonzi for your computer, it is not worth it. It may look good at first, but a few days later, he will just wreck your computer. Bonzi is a virus. His voice sounds like a computerised Grover from Sesame Street. And...

Pros: Very cute character, brings a lot of fun.
Cons: A bit distracting sometimes and probably slow down the CPU a little bit

Bonzi is a lovely character that adds life to a computer. It is good that someone will greet you when you boot your PC, and reminds you that it's already late at night (though that advice is seldom taken). Sometimes, it is a bit distracting and may even...

Pros: none
Cons: spyware, security breach, annoying, relatively impossible to remove

As a computer technician over the last several years, I've seen little Bonzi grow from a cute (almost innocent) little chimp to a gorilla hiding in the corner, stalking you, waiting to rip your head off. Having experienced situations with the purple...

Pros: neat
Cons: hacker, destroys computers, sends you viruses, ANNOYING, also makes you pay for more features.

Bonzi is neat (talks, remembers things for you, etc.), yet he isn't all that great. The first time I downloaded him, my computer kept crashing. My friend has also told me that one of her dad's friends downloaded him, and he destroyes their computer and...

Pros: He is a cute little guy with a big smile!
Cons: He's an annoying salesman!

I've found Bonzi Buddy to be quite entertaining at times. The way he pops up & says nice little things & eats his banana's is cool. I like how he swings accross the computer screen from a vine & a cloud of dust appearing when he lands. The option to...

Pros: There isn't any when it comes to spyware and a pop-up ad generator
Cons: Popup ads, spyware, evil product!

This is a cute front for an evil idea of generating pop-up ads on your computer using a cute gorilla that can't speak very well. Please don't install this program, and then call your ISP complaining of spam and pop-up ads - you did it to yourself.

Pros: Nothing.
Cons: Everything.

****BeWaRe**** I'm glad you came here before downloading this monstrosity. it's little more than an advertizing revenue gatherer for Bonzi Software. You could do much better, Go back to clippy the Office paperclip if you want some cute animated friend....

Pros: cute idea
Cons: badly executed excuse for a sales pitch. Hold on to your wallet!

Back when Epinions was new, I discovered Bonzi Buddy before it was a gorilla. In those days, he was a cute little Parrot named Petey. Today, Bonzi Buddy is a small purple gorilla named Bonzi. However, not much has changed. Bonzi Buddy is still...

Pros: cute at first
Cons: annoying, expensive

He is okay at first when you don't know him, gets annoying. You have to pay or he can't do anything but tell stupid jokes. I didn't pay. If you didn't get him yet, don't do it, you'll regret it. He is going to tell you how he wants to go to school, learn...

Pros: Cute and entertaining
Cons: Messes up your computer!

I thought that this would be a great idea.
Not only would Bonzi amuse and entertain me, but he would help me become more efficient!
And to top it off, what was supposedly worth 40 dollars would be free to download.
So I sat through two...

Pros: Nothing is good about the Bonzi Buddy.
Cons: Bonzi Buddy is annoying and difficult to remove.

Don't get Bonzi Buddy. It is annoying and hard to uninstall. Bonzi Buddy is a little gorilla that interrupts you when you are trying to get work done. When you install it, Bonzi Buddy installs a few other programs with it. When you uninstall Bonzi Buddy,...

Pros: None
Cons: Intrusive, Crashes systems, no support, no way to call them

I am a computer consultant, and I have seen many a computer come crashing to it's knees from the "cute little program". And how about that whopping $10 a month service fee for having the pleasure of the purple computer eater on your system. Free my...

Pros: ummm He can pronounce my name, unlike many people I've come across.
Cons: Shady program that wants too much information,like passwords!Also kept crashing my system!!!

I would NEVER recommend this to anyone! I thought initially, "oh how cute!" WRONG! After this was installed on my computer, my PC kept locking up, my IE kept crashing, and I didn't feel comfortable with this free program asking to input all of my email...

Pros: He's cute and purple,you can turn him off.
Cons: He wants you to spend all your money on his upgrades.

I get a call from my fiance` this morning,telling me to check my E-mail. He sent me information about Bonzi Buddy and a link to download it. The name rang a bell,and I remembered that I had downloaded it a long time ago,but I had deleted it from my...

Pros: None whatsoever. No, really, none.
Cons: Makes you wish capital punishment was still legal.

Forget bananas, this will make you go ape-$h!t. I've seen poor software in my time, but this goes beyond even the dreaded Phone Tools of some years back. Like the proverbial wolf in sheeps clothing, the Bonzi Buddy, whilst masquerading as a "your very...
