    "Complex for new users but very good."

    December 28, 2012  |   By Soapm162

    Pros

    Works well for me. I used it regularly to download updates to LibreOffice.

    Cons

    I have on occasion had some difficult configuring the many and varied parameters. For one, FDM would only start the download for the first of my selections. However, after some exploration, I figured out the different options I had to set, making sure they all fit together.

    Summary

    I have used this program for years, updating as new versions came out. After I got used to all the options and parameters, it's a very useful, handy program.
