Starting affiliate program, which affiliate software is best at a decent price?

    Hello,

    I am in the process of starting an affiliate program for a subscription-based application I will be offering. I've been looking at affiliate software programs but the selections are overwhelming and of course the cost varies quite a bit too.

    In my searches I think I've narrowed it down to Affiliate Pro Script, Post Affiliate Pro, and iDevAffiliate. I've used Post Affiliate Pro as a publisher in the past and found it easy to use but of course it's the most expensive at $299 out of the three.

    Are these three good choices or should I look elsewhere. Price-wise I'd prefer to spend as little as possible (of course) but my limit would be around $300.

    As for capabilities I need to make sure that recurring commissions are a feature and of course something that is easy to set up and for end users to use.

    Thanks!

    I personally use idevaffiliate. Their control panel is very user friendly and it has all the options I need. Their support team is superb as well which is a huge factor to consider.

    Cheers!

    Thank you for the suggestion. I will look into them a little closer. I've read that IdevAffiliate is a little more easy to set up that PAP, would you agree that setup is acceptable?

    Thanks!

    Check this up Post Affiliate Pro vs iDevAffiliate

    I vote for Post Affiliate Pro, they have free installation and 24/5 support, very happy with that.

    There is some learning curve because it has more features that iDev but nothing super difficult.
