    Hi All,

    Is there anyone out there who runs their own affiliate scheme and would recommend the software they are using?

    We are looking for a product which will allow affiliates to sell our software products, something which will allow them to add a link on their site so people can click through, place an order, pay and then would tell us what we owe to who?

    Thanks

    What about offering products to other affiliate systems so you don't need to worry about that?

    That's not a bad idea, but then you are losing a little bit of your profit to a middleman. Either of these programs does just about everything automatically. All you have to do is pay the affiliates.

    If using other affiliate systems, you don't need to advertise your, because others have users already.

    I guess we can agree there are pros and cons to both. I have used both as a seller and merchant. I prefer the private program as opposed to the network program.

    Thanks for the input, we actually need it as an automated system for resellers, i.e. the network is already established. so they can add a button on their site so the purchase is automated and comissions are all automatically logged. So I think having our own is probably the better option.

    My favorite is http://jam.jrox.com/

    I used to use IDevAffiliate but JROX has many more features it didn't and they were features that I wanted. Both of them are a good choice depending on what features you need or want.

    Good Luck.
