GetRight is a great tool for any user that downloads files from the internet, which is about everyone. GetRight is easy to use, it helps you get faster, more secure, and manage several downloads as you want them to.
GetRight has many features for accelerating your downloads:
-Use of mirrors: A file can be downloaded from several servers at the same time, these mirrors can be located automatically or manually, and it will even switch between sources to find the fastest one.
-Download Acceleration: Another great acceleration feature is that it can split your download in X amount of pieces, and it will download those pieces as if they were separate files. This means it will be downloading the same file (up to 10 times) at the same time. This will dramatically improve your download speed.
GetRight not only has options to accelerate the downloads, you can also determine of your download list of files, how many of them to download at the same time, what is the priority of those, you can limit the download speed, automatic downloading can be selected, and it will even pick up the download when you copy a download link.
Another set of great features GetRight offers is server synchronization, this is if you want to download many files from a website, or an entire library from an HTTP or FTP site, you can easily set it up.
Last but not least, if your download hasn't finished and you need to stop, restart or shut down: No Worries! GetRight will resume your download, so no time is wasted.
