Top 5 best alternative free Internet download manager

JDownloader

JDownloader is an open source download manager (whose code is available for free). For those with programming knowledge, the software can be easily modified or improved by anyone with knowledge of Java.

You can manage and schedule downloads with the software just like with Internet Download Manager. The only problem with JDownloader is that unlike IDM, it is not able to launch all downloads simultaneously.

In addition to its similarities to IDM, JDownloader can also resolve some CAPTCHA by itself. Whenever you come across a site that requires you to resolve a CAPTCHA before presenting you with the download link, JDownloader will automatically resolve it and start downloading immediately.

This IDM alternative is available on Windows, Mac and Linux.

EagleGet

I discovered this little software not long ago and I adopted it. EagleGet is one of thebest download acceleratorson Windows, it has many features similar to those offered by IDM.

The download manager is free to download and easily integrates with Firefox, Chrome and all other popular browsers. It allows you to easily read and pause downloads.

In addition, the software displays a tooltip that you can move anywhere on your screen to keep an eye on download speed.

Some sites give you a download link for a certain time and at the end of this time the link is expired and you are forced to start the download again.

If so, EagleGet can update expired download addresses without restarting the download from the start. It is a light and easy to use program, I recommend it to all beginners.

However, it is only available on the Windows operating system.

Free Download Manager

Personally, it’s my favorite and it’s the download manager that I use daily and even for torrents. I recommend it for large “downloaders” like me.

As the name suggests, Free Download Manager is a free tool that has the potential to replace IDM on your computer.

Free Download Manager offers the same advanced features as IDM but it has a feature that IDM does not have: it allows you to download torrents files such as your favorite movies on UpToBox, French torrents sites like NexTorrent for example.

In addition to that, it allows to resume broken downloads from the last stable point. Unlike IDM which is only available on Windows, Free Download Manager is available for download on Mac as well.
