This is simply a great tool.
It have almost all the features for downlods.
What I miss is the look and feel. That is not amazing, They have very plain and simple looks.
Thanks for such a component.

Thank you for the favourable comment. Remository uses semantic markup for its HTML, and the look and feel is partially the result of the default Remository CSS file and partially from attributes cascaded from the site template. Users of Remository are encouraged to modify the default CSS, or commission web designers to do so.

I am very shocked that Joomla does not ahve a good donwload component, there is something wrong with everyone. This one works the best for me - but..again I say but. I need to upload alot of files to transfer from DOCMAN. The ADD FILES ALREADY ON SERVER does not work..it adds nothing or only adds the folders and not the PDFs
Owner's reply
Thank you for the grudging praise. But the central comment here is simply wrong. I have just used "Add Files Already on Server" to add all the .jpg files from the Joomla /images directory structure. The results are visible in "Selected Images" folder at http://j15.joomlaguru.net. The operation ran flawlessly, using the current release of Remository, and took a few seconds. There is an extensive FAQ on this topic at http://remository.com/faq/remository-general/add-files-already-on-the-server/. I hope you will consider revising your review.

I love this component. This is what I need. I've been using it for 3 months. I have not have any proplems with it. I emailed the developer several times just to ask something I did not understand, and every time Martin answered. He explained everything in details!!!
Thank You!
Thank You!

I have used many of the Joomla download extensions throughout the years and have found this download component to be the easiest to install, configure and manage. This remains true for download systems that contain hundreds and even thousands of files with extensive category structures. While each of the other top download components (DocMan & JDownloads) have their features and benefits, switching from such download components as DocMan has saved a lot time performing administration tasks. Perhaps best of all, though, is the feature that allows for an embedded audio and video player in the file page, which also saves the hassle of having to integrate an audio and/or video component or plugin to enable website visitors to easily play the media. Thanks!

I have been struggling with Docman for years because it supported user groups, and Remository didn't in those old days. While migrating to Joomla 1.5, I checked on Remository again today, and what a delight! It's like night and day! Thank you!

I tried 3-4 extensions placed here. But I have to say that Remository is the best (in my opinion of course). It does everything what I need and the best way. Very good access control. And easy set-easy use.

After looking around the Extensions area for ages I eventually posted on the Forum that I was looking for a module that could handle individual client download areas. After being recommended Remository I downloaded it and gave it a try...and I'm glad I did! It does exactly what I need it to do and more. Thanks to Martin and the team for a great module. It handles private and public downloads with ease with some nice extras.

I'm very satisfied with this extension. It's simple to install, maintanin, and very intuitive. It's NATIVE, and well supported, and it's localized in several languages.

I've been using DOCman for several months, but decided to take a look at Remository for a new website. Wow, what a difference. All the same features, but much easier to manage. In addition, it is substantially faster than DOCman. Unless something new comes along, I will be sticking with Remository.

Easy to install, configure and manage. Simpler to use than docman, but with the same usability and supports 1.5 natively.
I don't think people can fault the administrator's support commitments, this guy has provided a free and open source solution that anyone can add to, maintain and support themselves.

I guess this extension is the best download manager at the moment.
But please if you release your extensions in a compressed file don't add the .svn files with it, we don't want and need all that mess on our server, there is a function in SVN where you can export the files in a clean way for release, use it!

Thanks, although your comments sound rather grudging! The .svn comment is somewhat nitpicking. I often do use export, but in any case the subversion files do not stay on the server, since they are not in the packaging XML.

This component is great. The support is more than you would expect from one man, he's really quick at responding and is honest with you which is great.
The backend could have a few extra features but when you have the developer answering your questions, well you can do just about anything.
I am just in the midst of customizing this a little more to suit my site, could be easier to do a few things but overall the install was straight forward (aka upload and install) and the backend functionality is fairly straightforward although it could use some alt-hover tags to explain here and there.

I use the tool more then one year and it works fine.
The support by martin is better then any commercial one! Reaction time less then one hour, lot of patience...
Perfectly great!

Others have said what I have to say. I tried DocMan and unfortunately couldn't even get it installed. I generally have no problems installing stuff on my Joomla sites.
This one went up in a matter of seconds and works beautifully. I had some issues with my Config file cuz my hosting setup can be weird, and Martin provided awesome personal support via his forum and also email.

Maybe it's up to my setup of Joomla! but some other components refused to work properly with 1.* and I pick this one. Installation is painfully and very easy. After a five minutes I got functional thing in my site that looks very professional but easy to use. Thanks man.

Well, Remository is an old and very mature component since old Mambo days and still is the most reliable downloads component. All recomendations!
byMyJoomlaGuide.com on April 3, 2008
We've used Remository almost exclusively without issues. It's been a great resource for our sites, and hasn't produced any errors.
Great component!

Does exactly what it says it does. And, it runs on J! 1.5 Native Mode.
bybaijianpeng on February 10, 2008
I have been using Remository component for a long time. This is the best downloading management component for Joomla! now. I recommend it to everayone.
The latest news is there is also a new native version for Joomla! 1.5 to run without legacy mode.

I only fell into the world of Joomla in the last 3 weeks I love it and this component. It is exactly what I was looking for. I needed a way for clients to upload items to my site to share with the other people in their User Group and for those people to be able to download items, and this does it perfectly. Was very easy to set up and figure out. If you have the patience and knowledge of CSS it was somewhat easy to tweak the look of the pages. Only thing right know I wish it had was the ability to send out a notifications to a User Group when new items were uploaded.
