The best alternatives to the jDownloader

If you do not want to be bound by the jDownloader, you can choose from various alternatives. Because not only with the jDownloader you can download files from one-click hosters such as Share-Online or Uploaded. We will also show you other programs that are also looking for downloadable content such as videos or flash formats.

Alternative 1: jDownloader competitor "Cryptload"

Cryptload is the biggest competitor to jDownloader, which is not only convincing in its design. Due to potentially harmful software, we can currently no longer recommend CryptLoad.

• Same functions: Cryptload offers roughly the same range of functions as the jDownloader. Just like in jDownloader, you can stop the download of files and continue them later and load several files at the same time without downloading each one individually.
• Advantage: If you often download several files from one-click hosters and do not have a premium account, Cryptload brings a useful tool. After each download, waiting times are usually required, Cryptload connects you again with your Internet provider, so that you get a new IP address. The file host no longer requires you to wait.

Alternative 2: Universal download manager "Orbit Downloader"

Here, too, we have to advise against downloading. It is believed that the software participates in so-called denial-of-service attacks.

• With the Orbit Downloader you can also download stream and flash formats. So you can also download videos from websites like YouTube.
• The program can also be integrated into the browsers Internet Explorer, Firefox and Opera. This makes downloading files even easier.

Alternative 3: Free Download Manager

The currently most popular and probably best alternative to jDownloader is the Free Download Manager.

• The software includes everything that jDownloader, Cryptload and Orbit also offer. Whether YouTube or BitTorrent - this download manager can tap almost any source.
• The Free Download Manager is completely free and does not import any advertising. Compared to other software, there are no concerns regarding the security of the software.

Alterantive 4: Minimalist download manager "Load"

• Especially for newbies in the world of download managers, the above-mentioned programs with their numerous functions can quickly become confusing.
• If you are looking for a relatively minimalist download manager in a simple but modern design, you should go for Load.

Alternative 5: µTorrent for downloads at BitTorrent

• In contrast to the download with one-click hosters, the risk of IP determination when downloading in the BitTorrent network is significantly higher. Still, torrents are still very popular.
• The µTorrent tool is probably the most popular BitTorrent client. Only the advertising is a bit annoying. However, the tool is completely free of charge.
