Affiliate software suggestions

    I'm looking for suggestions on affiliate software. We currently use iDevAffiliate (www.idevaffiliate.com), but it's not working out as well as we had hoped. We have fairly simple requirements, just has to integrate with 1shoppingcart.com and allow for at least 3 tiers. multiple payout levels at each tier is a plus, but it has to have multiple levels at the first tier.

    Preferably looking for something we can purchase, but suggestions on hosted solutions would be appreciated as well.

    Thanks you any help you can give.

    Check out Affiliate Network Pro at alstrasoft.com. It is a bit pricey at $390 (when I believe iDevAffiliate is $99), but it has a good reputation. This one comes highly recommended by Allan Gardyne. If you decide to make a move to this software, PM me. I know how you can get it for $340 (legitimately).

    BTW...with ANP you can run your own affiliate program and sell affiliate program management services if you are interested.

    Hi Joobz,

    AlstraSoft Affiliate Network Pro allows you to start your own affiliate network just like LinkShare and Commission Junction....hey, even they started small...LOL....and/or you can use it to just manage your own affiliate program(s).

    I have wondered about the effectiveness of their software, it always seemed a bit pricier. How about their other products? Do you use any others?

    I have used Autoresponder Pro. While it is not always the case in making purchases, it is generally the case, that you get what you pay for. I have been pleased, but that doesn't mean that their may not be similar, or even better software out there, that is less expensive.

    Yeah, don't need anything that let's merchants add products, but I will check this out a little more in depth. Certainly don't mind paying more the iDev cost if we can get something that works better :)

    Thanks for the suggestion.

    Try these guys at softservice.org (AffiliatePro). They have Excellent support and very affordable ($49), the price includes installation and integration. I hope the forum moderators will not penalize me for this, I just want to give you guys good information based on my experience, and I don't earn anything from this. This should give other affiliate software companies a run for their money.

    I bought iDevaffiliate and it did not work with my cubecart site, and they have a very crappy support, I sent 4 email tickets and not one was replied and they closed it without even replying, I even tried calling and only answering machine. I lost $100 down the drain.

    Why not just using the clickbank? That is so easy to use and no need to pay anything.
