Overall Satisfaction with Digital River Global Commerce

I purchase software products from Digital River.
  • They provide digitally delivered software products.
  • Digital River does not honor its corporate policies toward refunds on software it sells.
  • Neither positive nor negative.

Do you think Digital River delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Digital River's feature set?

Yes

Did Digital River live up to sales and marketing promises?

No

Did implementation of Digital River go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Digital River again?

Yes

Digital River may be a good option if you are simply buying software you are familiar with. In my opinion, if you are buying something you are not very familiar with, be very careful to get a written guarantee that it can be returned within 30 days if you aren't happy with it. Even though they have a 30 refund policy, this is essentially fraudulent as I've recently discovered. In many cases, you will have to go through the software developer for a refund. Digital River only wants to sell, not service (in any way) what it sells from what I've seen.
