Losing its two major developers Vuze is most likely dead (a good riddance- Vuze should have never existed).ĭownload (attention- opening this page triggers automatic download)īiglyBT version 1.0.0.0 - tabbed ui mode ( old, classic ui):īiglyBT version 1.0.0.0 - sidebar ui mode ( new, modern ui):īiglyBT version 1.0.0.I don't think that there will ever be a native portable version of BiglyBT.Compared to the cute icon Azureus once had for me the BiglyBT icon is dull.The full installers of BiglyBT version 1.0.0.0 provided for download at BiglyBT website and at GitHub have the same version number but are different, for me this is sloppiness.Even without the Vuze bloat BiglyBT is a heavy program, even without any torrents loaded it uses about 250-300 MB of RAM.If Sidebar style is installed later one cannot switch to Tabbed style in options (and vice versa), to use Tabbed style one will have to install the program again. During the installation one can choose between two UI styles- Sidebar and Tabbed.If the latest Java version is not installed during the installation BiglyBT will try to download and install it (the process can be cancelled).BiglyBT is not appropriate for beginners. Customizing the program to one's liking requires some efforts. I consider myself an experienced torrent user yet I cannot say I understand all options BiglyBT provides. Besides associated torrent files with BiglyBT and picking. It contains no ads or banners, and no third-party tools are bundled with the installer. I have tested almost all torrent clients for Windows (without BitLord and some more Vuze adware clones) and for me BiglyBT is the most powerful and the most customizable one. Designed as a free and open-source torrent client, BiglyBT was worked from Azureus, keeping its popular features and adding new, practical ones.BiglyBT is not a new program, it is just a fork of Azureus/ Vuze without the ads, the bloat and the bundled installers, it is what Azureus had used to be before it became Vuze.
