EZ Autos
A motor vehicle listing component with features such as category support, SMS messaging, configurable display structure allows you to display listings based on category or makes/models, RSS feed, request more information, vehicle features at a glance, javascript roll-over images and the ability to specify various custom fields. Includes 5 modules - new listings, featured listing, random listing, search filter and loan calc, as well as a number of auto-themed Joomla templates. Supports free and 2 levels of paid upgrade member listings, and it's PayPal IPN enabled to automate this process. EZ Autos can also be used as a display component for auto clubs rather than as a sales listing component. There is also now Community Builder integration available, as well as a plugin to show a member's listings on a tabbed page in their Community Builder profile page.

A professional Component by kcart1, July 16, 2008
I bought this component more than one year ago and I guess this component need to be reviewed. This component gives you what you need for your showroom or for your customer as a wholeauto package. You can customize the component as you want from all the tabs included in the control panel for your side and the customers side, also it comes with a wide modules also can be customized as you wish in the front end. This component have many features you can benefit from it with smooth and easily. The support very excellent with its fast respond 5 stars. Hope to see a version for Joomla 1.5.


I Recommend it !! by Jorcone, January 29, 2008
For these reasons:
1 – Easy to install.
2 – It comes with everything you need. The install package has templates, help files, extra modules and more…
3 – Very good support. Super fast responding to the questions and always with a good answer.
4 – It really does what I paid for.

I recommend you to buy this component.

** Just pay good attention to the modifications to your template’s index.php and index2.php . I did’t do It the first time and it took me a waste of time sending support requests :-( **


An excellent software and good client service by jesuscam, August 29, 2007
Hi guys and girls! I know that you want to do a good choice on what kind of code you want for you starting-site-car. I bought the program and got the link to download and specific instructions on how to use it. On every question I was answer in no-time, like let´s say 10 mins.

This girl, Katy (the owner) has always a way to give you what you need to implement the EzAuto component. Last version (5) is very completed on payments, configuration, options, etc.

Is better to invest on a good piece of code than install cheap or free ones, in this case. If you want to test them, that´s ok and good (they work) but if you want a real car site and be worry about only of bringing new clients this is right choice my friends. This goes also for EZrealty.


Great Component! Excellent Customer Support! by filipe036, April 29, 2007
I had this component up and running on a client's web site within an hour of purchasing. Easy to install and use and comes with some great templates (Easy to edit). I later needed some configuring help and Kathy, the developer, quickly answered all my emails. We exchanged some 8 emails in one day (Saturday for me, Sunday for her)! This is what I call customer support!!!! A++++ I recommend this component to everyone.


All an Automotive website will ever need in one package... by globus_it, April 21, 2007
The nature of this component is a dynamic one from the very core to every single module that is designed to make it more pleasing in all aspects. It is therefore somewhat complex and should not be taken lightly. That in turn allows a great deal options for future expansion whether functional or presentational. This component by all means is a complete and thorough set of tools created to manage an automotive website of any possible kind; let it be a privately owned dealership, car rentals, or a classifieds site for visitors to post their cars for a fee. "Categories" feature will allow you to turn it into automotive supermarket where not only cars but, motorcycles, boats, and RVs could be displayed and posted just let your imagination run wild. Integrated PayPal secure payment engine is taken care of so is the rss mailing. Numerous options and settings make it truly multi-dimentional in terms of front-end operability and back-end management. Support provided by the developing team is more than adequate. Those guys are locked in on every issue that arises and they even go extra mile to troubleshoot it on client's site. I can't wait for upgrades to come to see what more cool practical features will be added for downloads.


Great Support by stinger40, April 11, 2007
I am completely new to Joomla!, but I got this program working immediately for a RV dealership.

Kathy responded to my emails very quickly, and with detailed information. The support is phenomenal.

The initial set up is straight forward and once set up, it is very easy to upload new inventory and make neccessary changes.

What I would like to have is the ability to list the make and model alphabetically, like the category - this is a very minor "wish list" item.

Overall - Just Awesome!


Wonderful Component and Kathy by drotti, April 5, 2007
With some initial emails back and forth with Kathy Strickland, who was very helpful and quick to respond, we were given the green light to tweak her code if necessary The support was excellent and I got a very quick response. Kathy is a miracle!! I appreciate the product and the service they provided!


Better than the best! by tmorg, March 29, 2007
After getting Raptors EZ Realty, I knew my only option would be EZ Autos. Just ike the Realty program this was a simple install with excellent support when needed and I could not have gotten a better product even if I had a custom program made. I appreciate your software Kathy and your support as well!


Very Pleased by Packard, February 16, 2007
Not only am I please with the product, the service is great. Kathy really does a great job at helping webmasters out with their product, I really appreciate the product and the service they provided!!!


Clean Code by salyris, November 15, 2006
Where do I begin.... ;-)

I agree with the other reviews about researching other extensions, but found EZ Autos to live up to its name and boundless features.

A recent client needed a special feature installed beyond to make it a "set it and forget it" website using Nexteppe (www.Nexteppe.com) auto feeds, so we used EZ Autos as our base to get this done.

With some initial emails back and forth with Kathy Strickland, who was very helpful and quick to respond, we were given the green light to tweak her code if necessary. We are still adding features but our client is VERY pleased with the results so far: http://www.automarket1.com/

If your looking for a Auto Market script with excellent support and very clean code that doesn't touch the Joomla core, then look no further!

Big props to Kathy! ;-)


Excellent Work by yerg, September 22, 2006
We've used standalone commercial classified ads software, other free and paid Mambo/Joomla components and nothing stacks up as well as EZ Autos.

Pros:
• The javascript image mouseovers
• The information presentation for the public view
• The free/paid options
• The simple Paypal integration for paid ads
• The need to get the structure right before you publish the component

Cons:
• The need to get the structure right before you make it go live (uh? read the comments below)
• The need for users (general public in our case) to get their head around image sizing

This component is the same as Joomla, in that you need to get all the information and the structure you want sorted out "BEFORE" you begin using the system.

Support:
Exemplary, magnificant words fail me. Having received abisimal service from some commercial component suppliers and commercial software providers in the past the service Kathy provides is to die for.

As we are running this as a commercial classified application we needed some customisation ... nothing was too much of a problem.

I've given it a 5 star rating


Excellent component with great support by jazzylily, September 19, 2006
After looking at a couple of different options this seemed like it was worth a try. I am pleased I did. It installed with no problems and is very easy to use. I have even managed to customise some of it with some help. The support was excellent and I got a very quick response.
