We researched Applian's official pricing, terms, product pages, help pages and outside reviews. We haven't used Applian ourselves, so this is a research-based review, not a hands-on test.

Who it’s best for

  • Windows users recording online radio.
  • People saving their own video streams.
  • Long-time Replay users.

Who should skip it

  • Probably not the best fit for anyone who expects a one-time license to keep working forever.

What it costs

Prices checked October 30, 2026, from Applian’s own pricing page unless noted. Prices change often, so check the official page before you buy.

  • Windows tools from $9.95 to $49.95 (for example Replay Media Catcher $49.95, Replay Music $39.95), and a Replay Capture Suite subscription; one tool lists $2.95/month or $29.95/year (checked October 30, 2026).
  • 30-day money-back guarantee advertised.

What we like

  • Free trials of every tool.
  • Wide range of capture tools.
  • 30-day guarantee.
  • Long track record.

What to watch for

  • Trustpilot 1.6 out of 5 from 53 reviews (81% 1-star).
  • Reviewers say licenses went to demo mode after a subscription lapsed.
  • Complaints about slow or no support replies.
  • Recording streams may break a service's terms.

The fine print

  • Check whether a purchase is a subscription or a one-time license before paying.
  • Only record content you have the right to save.
