FDM

When it comes to offering an accelerated downloading experience, FDM (Free Download Manager) can give IDM a run for its money. The highlight of this internet download manager is the ability to organize downloads efficiently so that you can download even large files fast without any hiccups. Moreover, it also allows you to resume broken downloads and control file priorities for torrents, which is yet another plus from the proficiency aspect.

Another feature that makes it a notable rival of IDM is the knack of processing media files of a variety of formats, that could be great if you often have to deal with a ton of media files. That’s not all, FDM works with most platforms and also integrates seamlessly with major web browsers like Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Internet Explorer, and Safari.
