E-Junkie vs. DLGuard for protected download pages?

Dayne Dylan · 01-13-2009, 06:37 PM

Which one of these is better?

What I need is the option for people to choose either Paypal or Authorize.net, and I also want to have a full customizable thank you page where I can add any text, graphics, opt-in's...anything I want...not just a standard page with a pdf file link.

Thanks!

Hi Dayne,

I'm not sure if E-Junkie offer a fully customisable download page or just basic customisation?

But I can say DLGuard offers you FULL control over your download page via a HTML template.

You can have different templates for different products, as well as have a default one.

DLGuard supports both Paypal and Authorize.net, so no problems there!

Cost-wise, DLGuard is much more cost efficient for those people who are planning on sticking around for awhile, or don't want restrictions on file sizes or number of products on sale.

I hope this helps!

cheers
Sam

I have zero experience with E-Junkie.

But I will vouch for DLGuard.

I can't speak highly enough of it. And the customer support top notch.

I'm a fan of ejunkie but I've never tried dlgaurd. e-junkie also has the built in affiliate program and you can modify the thank you page as much as you want, at least as much as I wanted to

e-junkie also has a free trial so you can set up a product, test it out, and see if it's what you need and it won't cost you anything

however dlguard seems to have some killer support, like the folks from there answering questions in this forum

That's good that e-Junkie offers a free trial, I may have to check them out then. I have heard they are only a few bucks per month regardless though, which is great for marketers on a budget.

I have heard great things about DLGuard too though. I am currently with PayDotCom and have not been too impressed with their affiliate program.

How active is eJunkie's affiliate marketplace?

I recommend Download Guard. Simply because you have control over it, you can customize it.

From what I hear, DL Guard is king!

DLGuard IS king and Sam's customer support is second to none! Just remember though, that DLGuard's support staff is off on Saturday. So if you have an issue don't come whining here that no one answers your support questions! They ALL get answered except for Saturday!

Heh, yeah Saturday's tickets get answered on Sunday morning, which puts the reply at around 24 hours worst case.

Though even at 24 hours, this is a lot quicker than industry standard, and I get to spend a day with my family.

My clients are wonderful people, though, and very understanding!

cheers
