A quick run down,
Bet-ie Cost me £97 for trading its crap, for multi dutching backing or laying its fine, it looks like some from windows 95/98 era and could do with a major overhaul, i cannot remmember last time i actually used it.

Fairbot coming to the end of my 15 day trial period, as my last trial was for version 2.51 and they brought out 2.6 the day that ended i ended up with another 15 days :) Fairbot for Trading/scalping is a great piece of kit, i ilke to use the offset bets, where it instantly lays or backs the opposite when matched, also the stop loss feature is much improved as is the new take SP when gone into play thus closing your trade, example you trade just before the off say you back at 7.0 and are looking to get a lay matched at 6.8, the race jumps off and the be lay is cancelled you are instantly matched at SP this could well be 7.00 or 6.8 either way your matched and looking at a small loss or profit ratherthan sweating hoping the odds go in your favour inrunning.

Betrader
Another goood platform, quick to use for scalping when it does not "hang" or freeze this has happened to me, tools take and age to set up for stop losses ect, although the new version (when released some time early june :) ) will have right click stoplosses, it is now rather dated imo but still works :) cost is determined on minutes purchased in blocks of 500, 1000, 2000 or monthly quartly and yearly they are fairly priced and offer 6 months for 3 and other great deals. i am looking forward to the new version and giving it a good whirl.

BetAngel

Trading on the ladders is lightening fast, i also like the profit or loss column on the new version so its just a matter of clicking how much you want to lose or indeed win depending on the way the odds are going, right click stop losses are a bonus too, not sure about all the Graphs as they only show what has happened in the past and it seems too much information at times, i usually have a quick glance thats it no matter which platfporm i use.

Betpodpro
The new kid on the block and still in its developement tbh i paid £5 for a months worth of subscription and the version changed numerous times in that period, which is a good thing as they are trying to develope it, as with all the others its 1 click submission on the ladder or grid, with green up button, also has 1 click stop losses which i really like. Cost is £5 a month

Conclusion,,

at the moment fairbot is my numero uno/firm favorite but i will try a month with betangel but as i dont like paying subscriptions, i will look long term after this period, fairbot is a one off payment of £87 i think for 1 year which is a bargain imo.
I will eventually settle for 1 API product and stick with it.

Cheers
