| Very good plugin with excellent support by chezza247, June 25, 2008 |

Very easy component to use. I had a few problems setting it up and getting it to work with remository but Ovidiu's support was absolutely first class.
He was very helpful throughout and responded to all my queries almost instantly.
Highly recommended. |
| Best customer service ever! by Nico21, May 27, 2008 |

I needed something to backup my site and I did. Like every other day I made a new backup. I never really needed it... untill that one time. I messed up my website and I had to restore it. But I couldn't work that either, yet, nothing to worry about! I send an email to Joomla Plug staff and they restored the site for me immediately!! Definitely best customer service I ever saw! |
| Backing up that saved my backside by kray, May 21, 2008 |

I will admin, I am horrible at maintaining backups. But XCloner has taken that worry away from me. After testing out the demo, I immediately purchased a full version of this software.
Now, both my Joomla site and my forum get backed up nightly at Midnight. Thanks for the awesome work! |

Better than I expected. Does cost a bit but worth the money. Very easy to use. Allows you to backup and or move a complete Joomla site about as easily as possible. I just moved a customer's new 1.5 site from one server to another and it worked flawlessly! Everything works perfectly including the other add on modules. If you want to save time and worry and especially if you have money riding on a Joomla installation you will want to have this. Also note: new version is being designed to allow use with most any PHP MySQL CMS. So if you work with Drupal, XOOPS, CMS Made Simple you may well be able to use it with those as well, check it out. |

Now this is what I'm talking about!
Easy to use, easy to install, great instructions - done!
This is one extension you don't want to cheap out on! I had this module installed and running in about 1/2 hour, including reading the instructions.
I bought the lifetime support, and this is something I will never regret. |
| Incredible Support & Easy to Use Software by SpikeB, April 2, 2008 |

I'm a total Joomla and php noob and this is an excellent piece of software for people like me that is very easy to use. I had a problem moving a site across hosts and sent in a support ticket. I got an answer within 3 minutes and they solved my problem for me within 15, even though it was actually nothing to do with their product. Well worth every cent. |
| It works! by simone, March 22, 2008 |

XCloner beta (which is the new name for JoomlaCloner). It allowed me to design my new 1.5 homepage in a test-environment and then just clone it to the original HP. Just great, thanks.
By the way, I only have little experience with Joomla and none with SQL what so ever, but .XCloner just works like a charm. |

I rarely ever do this. There have been so FEW components that I have used for Joomla that have ever warranted it, but...
From the day I first bought this component almost a year ago, it has worked almost flawlessly. There were initially a couple of stumbles, but those were user error and you guys took the time to explain the issue to me and things have worked perfectly, EVEN through an extended period of time on GoDaddy servers.
I make my living exclusively working with Joomla, and every site I create is a Joomla site with VERY few exceptions. Your component has made it possible for me to do my job and make that living. I want to thank you sincerely for your work on this component and for the value you have added to my business. The annual fee was a pittance compared to the amount of time and headaches you have saved me. |

Ok... so i was pretty skeptical about a full site backup and if it would be as easy as they were stating. Everything was very smooth and worked flawlessly! It took me about 30 min to transfer my site to a completely different location; and most of that time was in the time it took to ftp the backup to the new location! This component is worth every penny! Thanks |
| Excellent support - Backup Works! by Glid, February 27, 2008 |

This is the type of extension that saves your website when you are afraid all is lost. I made a few backups, no problem. When it came time to fall back on one, I was pretty concerned. I broke my website and NEEDED this extension to work. As a first time user, I was not sure where to start... so I jumped onto skype and wrote "Hello, I am attempting to use joomla cloner... i purchased the Unlimited license and need to revert my website back to the last back up that I created." Ovidiu jumped right onto skype with me and answered my questions, gave suggestions throughout the process. In about 10 minutes my website was back up and working. Thank God for this extension and Ovidiu's help! |
| Great backup tool!!! by panzerknacker, February 20, 2008 |

I bought this yesterday based on the reviews I read here. I needed something to backup my Joomlasite and my PHPBB forum simultaneously, files and databases as I recently had huge issues with files being corrupted and off course I only had old manually made backups...... The new Xcloner package does this for you, automatically, painlessly and without a hitch.
If you want to add multiple or non Joomla databases, just make sure to add an SQL user to be able to read the forum database and all you need to do next is select the extra databases you want in the Xcloner configuration...PRESTO!! Automation of backups comes through cron and I did have some trouble setting that up, but that was not Xcloners' fault, it was my lack of knowledge on cron. The documentation could be a little more newbie proof on that end perhaps.
Another neat little feature to mention is the button to exclude the backup folder from your backups without having to configure excludes manually.
Right after I installed the component, I did run into an error, but this was resolved very quickly by the author after I sent a ticket. I sent this in the evening here in Canada, and he replied in a couple of minutes, it must have been late in the night in Europe so I didn't expect an answer till the next morning, so again....hats off.
All in all, highly recommended for Joomla and non-Joomla sites. |
| Great product! Great Support! by kavery327, February 11, 2008 |

To be very honest I am not a huge fan of Joomla and many of the extensions that are out there. They are far too buggy and I get sick of pouring through forums trying to get them to work. However, Joomla.Cloner not only works, but importantly has great support. Even when you do or say something dumb they give you fast, great support. I highly recommend it. It is a small price to pay for something as important as a backup program. |
| Fantastic support by hunchermuncher, February 8, 2008 |

I'm only a newbie to Joomla. I downloaded and installed this component with no problem and soon created a backup of my site which was on my laptop. I uploaded the backup to my site, following the instructions but had problems restoring it to the new location. After a dozen or so polite emails from support, they kindly went into my site and finished it all for me. Fantastic support - I moved the site from my laptop to the web intact. |
