BiglyBT: New Vuze-based torrent client

BiglyBT is the new torrent client based on Vuze and which also has no advertising. It is a cross-platform client. Its own creators describe it as a mix of Vuze and Azureus. But without advertising or some other integrated functions. With BiglyBT they seek to create a client that stands out for being light and in which there is no advertising. But keep the engine power of the original. Definitely an idea full of ambition. We tell you more about how BiglyBT works below.

How BiglyBT works

Currently, we can see that BiglyBT has been clearly inspired by Vuze. Although the main difference is the total absence of advertising. And surely users who know Vuze will see many similarities between the two options. In the case of Vuze, two different versions are currently available. One of them is Vuze Free, which has advertising and does not have additional functions such as antivirus or video viewing while downloading. We also find Vuze Plus, for which you have to pay 14.90 euros and it has no advertising and has additional functions.

BiglyBT has been inspired by Vuze. At least for this first version according to its creators. As they seek to find their own features and style in later versions. If we compare it with the original, we see that numerous functions have been removed that add complexity to the client. The idea is to make BiglyBT as simple and comfortable as possible. Therefore, functions such as DVD recording, installer offers or game promotions are not present in it. Another detail to take into account is that BiglyBT is totally opensource. Something that does not happen in the case of Vuze, which has some parts of proprietary code.

But this new torrent client continues to leave us interesting functions despite being a much simpler version. Among the functions that we find we have the option of connecting to other torrents that have the same files. This way you can speed up the download speed. We also have the possibility to establish ratios or speed limits. In addition, it has remote control even from Android devices and with RSS feed. BiglyBT supports VPN and I2P and has a media player and converter. And it supports UPnP and DLNA protocols.

Conclusions

As you can see, BiglyBT offers many functions of great interest to users. It certainly has the potential to become a most interesting alternative. And best of all, there is still a lot of room for improvement, so the new versions that are coming promise a lot, especially if they do not leave out the key aspects that make it a success.

It has some of the best features of Vuze but thanks to the lack of advertising and its lightness, it can be an option that ends up conquering many users. And those are two aspects that you should not lose over time. Especially if they want to be one of the most used options by consumers and outperform others like Vuze itself.
