  o0johntam0o7/8/2013

  All functions works fine It's a good "Download Manager"

• Best Download manager

  snehalmaisuria3/29/2012

  Pros

  This downloader is extremely fast and is working will all the sites I have tried so far. I have a feeling this one will be staying on my PC for a very long time, at least I hope so. Gigaget is the next generation download manager which utilizes cutting-edge Net Grid technology that improves your download speed by 7-10 times. Besides, Gigaget fundamentally reduces the operational cost of content providers, while dramatically improving downloading effectiveness and reach. Net Grid Technology taps the unused resources of networked PCs and servers, allowing content providers to deliver large files with faster speed and at a fraction of the cost of traditional solutions.

  Cons

  None for about 3 years & best of all.

  Summary

  I've used this for last 3 years now, without a single problem. I am glad to know about it from Gizmo it is easy and powerful.

• I'm sure it's great but too many problems

  Reaper12428/6/2010

  Pros

  Didn't use it long enought ot find out

  Cons

  -Would not integrate with Firefox -All support and FAQ links in app go to a some Chinese site that seems unrelated to the app.

  Summary

  I installed it and tried several times to integrate it into Firefox but to no avail. I tried the support and FAQ links in the app and they took me to a Chinese site that seemed to be related to movies and not the app. I uninstalled it and went back to Flashget.

• this product is a MIRACLE by all standards

  purelypeace8/4/2010

  Pros

  As a very heavy user of internet; I download typically 5 GBytes data every day.. This software is MIRACLE to say the least. Gives atleast 5-10 the speed of Internet download manager. Tried numerous download managers for last 15 years.IT IS THE BEST

  Cons

  NONE. EXCEPT THAT IT IS FREE. WHILE MANY OF ITS LOWER STANDARDS PEERS ARE HEAVILY PRICED. IT GIVES ULTRA-HIGH SPEED COMPARED TO ANY DOWNLOAD MANAGERS. So if you are on any limited data plan; be ready!!

  Summary

  IDM, touted as the best download manager in the world; was giving me 240 kbps. The Gigaget gave me on average minimum speed of 1920 kbps. So nothing short of miracle.

  There are no cons.

  God bless Gigaget Download Manager.

• Can't Integrate with Firefox' help, forum links no help

  wgspencerjr8/2/2010

  Pros

  Only been using this a few days, when I can get it to work it's fine.

  Cons

  Can't get this to integrate with Firefox. When I click on integrate a screen comes up and I don;t know what it wants me to input?. When I click on the web site link button or help button, I am taken to a website that is written in Chinese Now what?

  Summary

  This would be great if I could get some help in English, and can get it to integrate seamlessly with Firefox. 2 stars at best for now. Anybody out there can help me on this?
