The main reason I've stopped using uTorrent is a huge drop in the download speed and at the same time interface works terribly slow when you download any files. It might take 10 secs to minimize/maxim... See more

For some strange reason, it downloads some applications unrelated to utorrent. Plus, you don't see the app installed on your desktop. I just saw the unrelated one. But overall, if you know how to mana... See more

Utter crap! Deleted it and moved on.

Utter crap. I have just updated from the standalone version, which was easy to use, now they have transferred to a web version which is absolute rubbish. The interface is awful. It's complicated and slow. I tried to download a magnet link, but I couldn't open it with the web version of uTorrent. I just got fed up with the headache and went and downloaded QBitTorrent, which is a standalone version and so simple to use. Goodbye uTorrent!

New version sucks

Please give me the old version back!
uTorrent web is slow, and it works through the browser.
Download speed looks decreased, the interface is awful.
I loved the normal version, I HATE the new one.
Going to uninstall it until something changes.

I HATE the new Web interface

I HATE the new Web interface. HATE it.

And I really loved µTorrent the way it was before. The 4 stars rating is for the previous version. I'd give -1000 for the new one. Not even a person who simply doesn't like change, I'm always one of the first to switch to new available versions of my apps. I just think that this change, in particular, is the worst decision someone has ever made in the entire world history.

Can't find words strong enough to describe how bad is it. Really.

The web version is just really really bad. U torrent is known for being a light client, but the desktop version had most of the features you would actually need. The web version is missing even the most basic features (like a sort that works or the ability to have your complete and incomplete downloads in one place). Not to mention when 'upgrading' it removed all of my in progress torrents without warning. It feels like a beta but it's been around for over a year I believe.

New update to web is really bad

New update to web is really bad, i wish they had giving us a choice to go back to previous version.
Likely there are few more out there.
qBittorent seems a good alternative.

I use to love using utorrent

I use to love using utorrent, it was so easy to use. But since the update its horrible and hard to use!
Not sure why they changed.... There has to be something better out there. Anyone have a recommendation?

This software was great. They now use your system as ZOMBIEZ to mine for bitcoins! DONT USE

This software was great.. Till the bitcoin mining crap came out. Now uTorrent uses YOUR system to bitcoin mine. I discovered this by packet sniffers, and traffic logging, along with resources monitors. Once I uninstalled utorrrent, guess what..... IT STOPPED..

My friend has the premium PAID version, and his too was eating system resources. We couldn't figure out why our new graphics cards were getting hot at idle... Then we uncovered this. Once we uninstalled uTorrent, the system went back to the way it SHOULD BE.... IDLING!

FORGET uTorrent, get something better, these people are crooks!

Simpy piece of crap.

I am surprised for those that write positive reviews for this piece of crap for a software. The only explanation is that they must be getting something in return. I lost 80+ torrents twice and when I contacted them not only they DID NOT respond to me but they BANNED me from their forums and blogs! It's regrettable that I cannot give 0 stars to this trash. I can only warn people NOT to use it!

Best one out there.

At first I wasnt trusting of µtorrent. You probably are as well, coming here to look at it. But trust me, it is trustworthy and gets the job done.

Sure, it may take a while to download files, but not that long. It really gets the job done and works perfectly. I recommend this to anyone. This is probably the best torrent out there.
If you are still not trusting, just get it. You won't regret it one bit.
