Worth or Skip

We check it for real. Then we call it.

Every review here ends in one of two words. No star ratings to hide behind, no "it depends" — a verdict you can act on.

WORTH ITSKIP
How we decide Who writes this

How the verdict works

  1. We use it or we say we did not

    Hands-on wherever hands-on is possible. Where it is not, the review says so in plain words and shows what we checked instead.

  2. We name who it is not for

    Every review carries a section listing the buyers who should walk away. A product that fits everybody fits nobody.

  3. We stamp it

    WORTH IT or SKIP, with the reason on the same line. Commission does not move the stamp — plenty of paying products get SKIP.

Who's behind this

Roberto Oliveira

Roberto Oliveira — 25 years in IT infrastructure and security, and the only person who writes here. I have run production systems where a wrong call has consequences, and I review products the same way: check it against the source, then say plainly whether it holds up.

I do not earn a living from commissions, which is exactly why I can say when something is not worth buying.
