Both programs need to drop the price.

Porn is in downward spiral, they have to understand that webmaster have to tighten their belts wherever possible.

well you know what i mean. they call it "free"

i never expected nifty to stay free forever, honestly. they made it free to get us in the door. but i been paying for a while now.

exactly, is a great service, no reason to grind them for wanting to make a buck

I absolutely love Nifty Stats and right now I'm using the free version and was thinking about upgrading to paid in a little bit but it sucks they're doing this as I'm sure a lot of people checked out Nifty Stats because of the free version. Oh well, I still support Nifty though, I think it's a great program.

price
 

Cut price at $10 monthly (if you already don't want to give lifetime licence what really sucks) and there is no webmaster that' can't afford it. You will kill competition with low price and keep webmasters for yourself. They won't ever think about other service.

Agree, if the price is competitive I'll buy.

THIS!! :thumbsup

ew.... good buy to free software...

Same here. Old school FTW

Well if you've never tried NS you can't really know for sure if SR is 10$ monthly better than NS....

anyway...Shit...i think they should drop the price but... i'm quite sure i will end up paying... it's too useful...

Stats remote user here

Another happy hand user here. Oh, err...

I cant imagine life without stats remote.

pretty nice to give some time and also still have a limited free version

I tried niftystats and I really like their payment tracking, but for some reason it makes my CPU go to 60-70% load so I have to stick with statsremote..

:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

same here :winkwink:

As a guy who just released a 'free service' I can say first hand the only sensible way to do this and win, (adding paid features) is to add paid features, and not remove functionality from the free service. Of course I know hindsight is 20/20 and I'm sure this wasn't their initial plan.

Right now I'm running on a free model and all though I do plan to bring in some high end paid features eventually, I've made certain that everything free and unlimited now will stay that way, the extra monetization will not effect the free member base.

Use the export stats function...that will work

I have this problem quite often with NS and they have no idea why. Once they go paid, I will probably look at StatsRemote.

I've been doing this for 10 yrs and I dont think I've joined more than 15 programs total in all of this time.

To me, 15 free seems quite reasonable.

unified stats
 

what happened to Unified Stats, it was free if I remember good?
If Nifty lower price as suggested, I will buy it for sure.

good for them.They need to make some cash however

so whats the sad news?

Do you think there will be 15 adult programs left by the end of 2010?

I would think they are more ad based. Free version has popups.

any coders out there that think they could build something like this? hit me up plz!!

Like I told in this thread, they price will do just make them competition, it is a matter of time.

maybe some spanking ............... LOL

so, there is no advertising on the paid version? would be nice if they would give a promo price for full version, I have been using free for 3 or more years, and have bought from their advertises on many occasions...

too bad. I guess I will have to pay up.

i make a bank with couple programs only, i dont care.

I would like to say few words in this interesting discussion, especially put some people in the right picture.

Basic idea for this project was, to give you free software, while you will support our investors (affiliate programs), by promoting them and buying their stuff, make sales .... etc.

Many of you guys know that we did send frequently news during the month where we were emphasizing same sentence.

?Thanks to our partners, we are able to distribute Nifty Stats completely free for you!?

Unfortunately, many of users did ignore rotating ad. There are consequences, admission (profit) from ad went rapidly down, and therefore we lost our source of investment for nifty stats. Under these circumstances we had to come to decision and limit free version.

Although, many of you bought new version nifty stats pro and we thank you all!

Btw, I am reading here, that statsremote is better ?would you please write an example why? Nifty has some very popular functions ...... , for example verification of the sponsor?s payout.

Few people asked me on support, if they have to install everything again after buying pro version?
NO, YOU DON?T HAVE TO. AUTO-INSTALATION WILL TAKE CARE OF EVERYTHING AND YOU WONT LOOSE ANY AFFILIATE PROGRAM. Installation only takes few seconds.

Please contact me if you have any questions :)

I'm confused. They gave you a free product for three years and then you want a promo price on top of that?

This whole thread is kind of funny. Nonstop people are complaining about tubes and free porn. Here we have a company in our industry that has provided a free, quality product for years and is saying that they can no longer afford to do so. They need some help. And everyone still expects it for free.

LOL.
