I bought this extension for my multimedia online archive. The component design is excellent and it only required few steps in order to be fully functional. Among the many functions the component offers, there is a very good search engine and file preview: all perfectly working. Support is also excellent and keen to help also with incompatibilities with other joomla components. It only misses webdav to be one of the best files and documents handling softwares.

Easy to use file sharing component

Install, configure and you are done! Very easy to use out of the box!

For problems there is support and RSJoomla! is answering all requests in less than 24 hours. So you get your problem fixed very quickly.

Fantastic File Sharing Component

Posted on 15 October 2013

I compared several file sharing extensions before selecting RSFiles! for my needs. It has come a long way since reviews from last year and I would absolutely recommend it. I almost went with another component because the demo is still using a much older version, so I had many of the concerns other reviewers had here. Then I found some newer video guides showing off the new front-end interface and started to dig deeper. The folder security is fabulous and it's no longer an issue displaying all folders in the root when clicking the Home button. If you don't have permission to view a folder on the root, you won't see it, won't even know it's there. I'm really glad I decided on RSFiles! ad I believe it's the only component that can give me everything I needed. My only wish is that RSJoomla! would update documentation and their demo site. While you can figure out how everything work on the back-end through experimentation and testing, I could have made a decision much faster and would have been able to implement much quicker, as well. As for final results, though, I don't think it gets any better. And support was very responsive, even going beyond what the had to do to identify and issue in my template that caused a problem with button icons. Thanks Guys!

Easy to use and works well!

This is a very well thought out extension and opens up a myriad of possibilities for the sharing of files. I have found this much easier for file sharing than FTP since some of our customers are not tech savvy. This save me time setting up FTP connections for them. I just create a username/password and they have a nice GUI for sharing files right away. Recommended.

Its great and does work

Rs files works ,looks cool / modern and is cheap! Same as with other products of them as RS Form Pro, RS Mail, RS SEO. Have all above software running without problems on some commercial websites for years. As I’m not good and interested in codeing and more a kind of designer I never have time and much knowledge for fiddling around with extensions. I have to rely on professional support. Not every joomla template is easily compatible with all extension. And never mind, I’m also making lots of little mistakes. RS joomla is possibly not the best extension company, who knows, but I can rely on them and they safe me lots of time. Thx for you always quick and kind and professional support . Thanks for fixing my mistakes all the time without moaning and Xmas greetings to RS Joomla as Andrei Cristea, Adrian Paciu, and Bogdan Catana. Kind regards Henry Marquardt

Doesn't meet expectations

I tried really hard to like this product, but after having to re-build my documents database about 4 times, I'm giving up. The component itself is moving in the right direction and if you're just using the plain vanilla styling that it comes with, you should be fine. Any time you want to modify the style though, it becomes a lot more difficult. In addition, and I'm not an expert here, but from what I can tell the product is not coded using Joomla best practices so things like layouts are not smooth and clean like they are with other products.

Basics missing...

Sabine Scherer (9).
Posted on 20 August 2012

Good looking component with some interesting features, but one essential option is missing:

Files and folders cannot be sorted manually!!!

I think a commercial extension should be capable of such an essential function. So I installed JDownloads instead which is donation ware and works perfect even when you have to sort the files manually....
