Benefits

  • You no longer have to manually search and download TV series; SickGear completely automates this process.
  • Features a built-in option to automatically retry failed downloads, something missing from similar programs like SickBeard.
  • SickGear is completely free, with no hidden costs or subscriptions.
  • Failed downloads are immediately blacklisted so that the same error does not occur again.
  • Provides a clear calendar where you can see when new episodes are broadcast and become available.
  • In addition to automatic downloads, manual downloads are also possible for more control.

Disadvantages

  • The initial installation and setup can be complicated, especially for beginners without technical experience.
  • Requires indexers and download clients, such as SABnzbd or NZBGet, which must be set up separately.
  • There is no official mobile app, limiting on-the-go management to browser access.
