The Secunia Software Inspector identifies a few dozen of the most common applications, while the Secunia PSI can identify thousands. In addition, the OSI is run using the web browser, while the Secunia PSI is downloaded and installed. Furthermore, the PSI provides a range of capabilities not found in the OSI version, such as automatically running scans a week after your last scan, automatic program updates, notifications for unpatched security issues in browsers and browser-plugins, and so on.
