I used to use SpeedDownload and was bummed when they went out of business. Just on a whim I searched around for a replacment tonight while watching a really slow download of Ubuntu and decided to take a chance on this. My main interest was the spliiting the download into multiple segments (or sessions). It tricks the server into thinking they’re 10 different people downloading, thus using more bandwidth. Well let me tell you this thing rocks. I had 8 more minutes in my Safari download (was originally 40 minutes) and just for fun used the same link and started it downloading in this program and it took all of 5 minutes!! It actually finished BEFORE the one that was 30 minutes into the download still. So, from this very small limited test, I would say this thing is what I was missing. Just think of all the time something like this can save if you have a good internet connection (I have 100 mbps down). Well worth the price, even if I had paid for all of the pro features. But I really only wanted the one so it was even cheaper. This is probably not as full featured and detailed as SpeedDownload was. That seemed almost more of a advanced user program, but this is simpler to use for most I’m sure. Stop reading this review and download it now!

Holy crap this works great!
Awesome app
This application is fantastic for the Mac user who likes/loves to download videos,pictures,audio,articles,etc...There is no confusion while running.I must say that its the best download manager I have ever seen!!Works really great!!Thanks to creaters for making this amazing and awesome app....
? ne foncionne pas ? ou pas comme je pensais ?
Essai de la version gratuite avant dacheter la version "pro" non concluant.... Aucun téléchargement de vidéos, des traces de dossiers ("watch" presque vides (123 ko) s - ##### pas dexplications ##### ni manuels pour mieux comprendre je désinstalle de suite et nachète pas la version "pro" N.B. Cest fort possible que je naie pas compris (ou pris assez de temps) mais je nai pas trouvé le côté intuitif et lutilisation immédiate que je cherchais - SAFARI imac i7 mawericks. Je nai toujours pas trouvé (pour SAFARI) la faclilité dutilisation et la vitesse de "DOWNLOADHELPER" (extention Firefox)
Super
Super Appli tout ce que je cherchais ! Télécharge a 10M/s en wifi en connexion Fibre 200 Méga Possibilité de pause je suis passé a la version PRO mais la version LIGHT est largement suffisante !
ENFIN !!!!
Enfin un gestionnaire de telechargement avec fonction de reprise efficace et qui fonctionne sur Mac !!! Pour l’instant la version gratuite me suffit.
excellent début
apres jdownloader qui est catastrophique sur mac osx mavericks (que des soucies ),je cherchais un gestionnaire de telechergement ,je suis tomber sur celui ci . Simple d’utilisation ,pas de fonction inutile ou compliquer ( meme dans les preference ) ,efficace .bref tout se qu’on demande a se genre de logiciel . vous programmer des fils d’attente pour vos telechargement avec un ou plusieur telechargement simultané et hop vous partez au lit. a j’ai oublier de dire qu’il y a une extention firefox pour avoir folx dans le menu contextuel .pratique
Achat fonctionnalités PRO
Tout content de cette application, elle dispose d’un défaut majeur : l’impossibilité de récupérer ses achats car le bouton « Récupérer son achat » ne conduit vers rien, si ce n’est la fermeture de la fenêtre. Jonglant entre plusieurs sessions sur mon ordinateur, je me rretrouve donc dans l’impossibilité d’utiliser l’application sur mes différentes sessions. En espérant une correction rapide, je mets aux dévellopeurs une mauvaise note afin qu’ils comprennent mon énervement (1*).
