I switched from Sickbeard to Sonarr last week and I'm extremely pleased I did. I had been finding Sickbeard missing or slow at picking up episodes, also clumsy for administration.

Sonarr is beautiful to use, closer to CouchPotato in its interface, its also done a great job of picking up episodes the momont they're released.

Also, check out this for an awesome feature, a realsed calendar of your shows, premieres, and if you've got them or not:




Fully recommended by me.

Ooh, cheers for this.

I'd changed from Sickbeard to Sickrage, as it can do failed download management and it had been quite good up to now.  It had been missing episodes though, but I didn't know if that was a problem with either with Supernews or Oznzb/nzbs.org.

Yep, failed download handling is a revelation coming from SickBeard. Seems to work really nicely.

I have an astraweb UL account I've set for the download client, but what are you guys using as indexer?

Nice thanks, I'm going to switch to OZ free when I've backfilled all the crap I need to, I went with omgwtfnzbs in the end as they took bitcoin ;D
