Kuroo is easy to
use
The main functions of Kuroo are
easily understandable and must work
out-of-the-box without any further reading or
third-party help.
-
Kuroo is supportive
The
interface guides the user to manage all
basic portage maintenance tasks.
-
Kuroo is stable
Kuroo
is a solid application that can be trusted. It
is well known for its reliability.
To ensure the best user experience there is, Kuroo
cooperates closely with usability specialists from OpenUsability.org.
