    If you use Sonarr and Radarr, I highly recommend Prowlarr. If an indexer gets taken down or you find a new one, you can quickly add or remove them just from Prowlarr and it’ll do the same to your other *arrs.

    It’s got a ton of built-in indexer options to set it up quickly.

      If I’m already using Jackett with Sonarr/Radar and don’t really have any problems with it, should I still consider trying Prowlarr? What is it doing differently?

        Prowlarr is the preferred search engine for all the *Arr services. I switched because when you make adjustments to Prowlarr (adding/removing/modifying sources, changing search priorities, etc.), those changes automatically carry over to Sonarr/Radarr/etc.

        I have a ton of sources that I micromanage because I have turbo-autism. It was a pain in the ass to tinker with the sources in multiple places with Jackett, and I wound up with lots of gaps and asymmetry. Prowlarr is just cleaner.
