Editorial Review of Download Accelerator Plus

This program manages every aspect of the downloading process, including letting you do multiple downloads simultaneously, turning individual download sessions on and off, as well as accelerating your downloads.

The acceleration happens two ways: by downloading from the fastest servers, and by establishing multiple connections to servers.

It also can resume downloads if you lose a connection for some reason. There's plenty more here as well, including a feature that lets you limit the amount of bandwidth for your downloads. Also useful is that it integrates with your browser. So initiate a download as you do normally, by clicking a link, this program springs into action.

--Preston Gralla

Description of Download Accelerator Plus

DAP's proven and patented multi-connection technology and algorithms allow users to finally enjoy in practice the bandwidth they thought they have and have paid for. Its unique technology bypasses and overcomes common bandwidth obstacles such as busy servers, congested paths, sluggish connections, as well as many other common internet hiccups.

DAP 8.7 brings performance, with the fastest possible download speeds, while maintaining simplicity as key feature. There’s no need to learn how to operate DAP, no need to adjust to new windows and buttons, once users downloaded DAP, they just can keep on doing what they always do and let DAP speed up their downloads. SpeedBit’s DAP 8.7 also allows those wanting more advanced features to find plenty of valuables features and capabilities just a click away.

DAP 8.7 works with even the newest platforms, such as Microsoft Windows Vista, Firefox 3.0, Internet Explorer 8.0 and many more.

With DAP 8.7 's expansion - SpeedBit Video Accelerator, watching videos on the web reaches a new high with the elimination of common phenomena as picture freezes, and buffering on videos from sites such as YouTube, Reuters, MySpace, DailyMotion etc. and allows web users all over the world a smooth and enjoyable viewing experience. It also supports acceleration of downloads on iTunes (a test in SpeedBit labs resulted in cutting the download time of a full featured movie from over 3 hours to about 30 minutes! using a 5Mb connection).

Duration of ownership: 1 Months

Strengths: Does speed up downlloads and has some other cool features

Weaknesses: if you just need download speedups DownThemAll! from DownThemAll.net can break a download into 10 parts and then begin (vetusware.com max speed firefox gets 40-80 kb/s, downthemall in firefox 350-400 kb/s )

Overall Evaluation: It is great since it has many other feature but prefer downthemall since it is built into firefox (xpi plugin) and both are amazing at speedups!!

Duration of ownership: 3 Days

Strengths: I have yet to discover one!

Weaknesses: It says it will accelerate downloads by up to 300%, my downloads have taken three times longer since installing this. The advertising is misleading,it describes the "always resume" feature within the product description, but this is an extra that you have to pay for

Overall Evaluation: Not worth the money, it has increased download times, instead of downloading at 9kbps I'm now only getting 2kbps. I will be uninstalling it rapidly
