I bought this product and right away implemented it on my website. Installation was a breeze. Post implementation support was very prompt. I would recommend this product to every web developer out there.
JoomListings is a good BETA release extension. I don't recommend it if you are a beginner -level Joomla! administrator or user - but it has some nice features.
Foremost, JoomListings has the benefit of being more 'simple & clear' than some of the other classified extensions. The categorization of different adverts is simple and intuitive - a definite plus for most web site visitors.
On the other hand, there is still a lot of development to be done - fair enough, I think given the low cost and beta status. There are bugs, and while the support from JL is excellent, they are going to be around until a release candidate arrives.
We customized JoomListings for a JomSocial installation - and while some of the coding was challenging, I can't really fault the software - which isn't truly intended for production sites at this point.
Recommended, provided you have some development and programming experience.

After parting with $35 I was able to download the component/module only to recieve something that didn't really come up to the standard expected.... 'JC - JoomListings is a professionally developed classifieds component that was built with you'
This is only partially developed no real front end publishing available, even the back end doesn't appear as it does in the documentation on my screen, which you won't see until you've parted with your cash.
I have tried to use it straight out of the box and have had a number of errors and no classified ads displayed.
maybe it will be a good package oneday but at the moment I'd save your money.

Initially when I got this extension I noticed it’s not that easy to use. But this product has great support. I have requested 5 enhancements which joomclan promised to execute in next release. I will recommend this to all joomla users.
Difficult to use, poor navigation. I think - underdeveloped for a paid component (as of 5-14-2009).
Owner's reply
newmoniker,
Yes, you are right. It was underdeveloped and we had few bugs at that time. But we have this mentioned on our JED listing and JoomClan.com Landing page. We have improved navigation. Things have changed now we have released new version. Please go a head and try.
