With this amazing tool and the support provided by the EasyBlog team, I was able to set up and launch my new organizational blog in just a few short hours.

This is BY FAR the best component for blogging. I don't want to sit here and list all the reasons because I will end up being at the office past midnight. The install is super easy, the modules they provided are beyond helpful and the best part of it.. No joke, I emailed their customer support for help on editing some PHP files and I got a reply back within 10 minutes. Literally, 10 minutes! I've NEVER had such fast response time in my entire life. Not from the mom and pop shop, not from the multi-billion dollar companies. I hope these developers release more products because other companies could learn from their support. Customer for life.

I used to think wordpress would be one blogging platform hard to beat...until...I installed easyblog.
Other than an incredible product,their attitude is just top notch.
I cant detail my interaction with them here,but all I can say is...it was just out of this world.I dont even know how many people in this day and age would react like that.
Simply unbelievable !!Six stars from me.

Undoubtedly the best support i have ever seen on Joomla. It is saying something as I have been in web development since 1997. Great product! Recently tried integration with Jomsocial and it was very good. If only jomsocial has 1/10 of your support team...:) Looking forward to 3.5! Keep up the good work!! Special thank you to Mark Lee from support.

It is quite incredible how very simple the setup is. The documentation for the more complicated stuff like integration of facebook, twitter and other social components is very good.

But really, what makes this application more then worth the 79 dollars for a membership is that when i found a small glitch (which actually didn't really make any great trouble anyway) was promptly answered and analyzed.

Thank you so much for such a perfect, wonderful and easy plugin that fullfills, from my point of view, all the needs one could ever have with blogging.

Thank you thank you thank you.

The name "Easy Blog" says it all...worked great right out of the box and the support is phenomenal. I had to make some customization changes and they walked me through this on a Sunday! The support and ease of use make it very much worth the price.

Needlessly to say the product was FANTATSIC, super easy to use out of the box and the functionality (I especially love the front-end posting / gmail style auto draft saving, why can't joomla have that?) and all the extra modules / plugins were great too.

To top that off, I had 2 customization issues which developers normally don't care about and tell you to hire a coder. Mark not only replied less than an hour of my post, he went out of his way to help me customize it extremely accurately. I couldn't be happier and I have never come across such fantastic support anywhere!!!!

My three favourite premium services so far are jreviews, comopojoom comments and easyblog. As someone who has installed hundreds of extensions, if youre looking for quality premium products to boost your site I would recommend these three as the best.

I was really worried that this blog system would be way too much for my little web clients and that I would have to spend hours modifying it for a one or two blogger set-up. It was so easy to find what I needed to edit in the code. There are loads of switches to turn features on and off. Before I purchased the Pro package, I sent some questions to the help desk. They answered me on the weekend!! I've read lots of glowing recommendations about the support, but I didn't need any more help. I've installed Easyblog with one client and just upgraded to the Unlimited version so I can switch my expired MyBlog clients. It's nice not to dread customizing the weblog system!! Great job!! Keep up the good work!!!

I wish there was a setting higher then Excellent!! maybe even Excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Awesome plugin, I have switched from my Wordpress site to Joomla as I had to hack it waayy to much. With Joomla and EasyBlog together it makes our website work even better then before. The support is perfect, better then a person can ever need. I have converted because of them. Can't wait to see what else they come out with. Its worth the small change for it.

Just need to add my voice to the chorus of approval for this product. The component itself is excellent, does all that I want from a blog component, and in itself gives no cause for regret in having purchased it. What really impresses me, however, is the superlative level of support these guys give, even to the extent of helping with a third party product. Truly impressive, and without peer.

Joomla doesn't handle blogging that well natively. I've tried other plugins and they all had issues requiring hacks and edits. EasyBlog is the absolute best Joomla component I have used. Great documentation, great function, and no issues with templates.

The only way to go if you're already into 2.5. Well worth the pro price. Everything works out of the box. Support is swift and the level of documentation far above average. Social integrations include all the mandatories. Except Google+, but am told that's because Google hasn't enabled it yet. Kudos to these guys. Using EasyBlog on my company site and now will be offering it as a value-added service to customers.

Ok.. I thought all the reviews here were too good to be true, but i can tell you, support from these guys is amazing.
I just wish publishers of other extensions will borrow a leaf from stackideas. Right from installation, you have well documented step/help that shows you what to do next.. and the online chat (good job Mark!) is such a welcome feature.

I love this blog. The ease of use and versitility of features makes this blog head and shoulders above what I have used in the past. WORDPRESS, EAT YOUR HEART OUT! I especially loved support, which helped me through a couple problems in the past. If you have problems, try and find Mark in support.

An amazing product which was simple to install and modify (even with a quite unusual template). Easy to use and modify according to your requirements. Support is just incredible and they are currently trialing a live support chat which is awesome. Special mention to Mark who walked me through a couple of minor issues I was having due to my inexperience. Just top quality!

I have paid for and used other blogging extensions in the past and I needed one for a new website that I have been working on. I checked out EasyBlog and it looked good from what I saw in the demo, both n function and in appearance. So, I went ahead and purchased it. I have been amazed by what I received for my money. The extensibility of EasyBlog is nothing short of incredible, able to do things that other blogging software cannot do, at least not without custom work and lots of hassle.

But a good working extension is not the only thing to consider when buying a commercial extension for Joomla (or any extension for that matter, paid or not), a major consideration has to be the timeliness and quality of support. There is simply nothing to compare with the speed, friendliness and quality of support that comes with EasyBlog. Questions are answered amazingly fast and answers are as complete as you need. Even for someone, like myself, that dabbles in Joomla and may sometimes be a tad dense, they work with you until you "have it down", literally until you get where you need to be with your work.

If only all Joomla! extension suppliers could be this good, this fast with support and offer such quality products!!

I'm one of those inept folk who struggle enough with the front of a website, so I hoped Easyblog was just that - easy. It is, in fact it's a doddle to work with, and a joy to use.

And it gets better: on the rare occasions I've wanted to change something on the back end, I simply ask for support, and this is the 'miracle' bit, I get it! Recently hoping to adjust the size of the media manager upload thumbnail, I asked for advice and, virtually instantly, got an email suggesting a way of doing just that. It was all a bit technical for a luddite so I asked for further help. Despite my not even being able to provide FTP access details, over the course of a few hours and three emails, a member of the Easyblog support team had accessed the back of my site and changed things. The very large images I occasionaly upload now have the quality I desire.

I've been with Easyblog long enough to appreciate the benefit of upgrading from V2.0 to V3.0 and am looking forward to things getting even better with V3.5

I did try a couple of other Joomla blogging options before settling on Easyblog. All I can say is that I am, genuinely, hugely impressed with both the product and the support offered and cannot reccomend either highly enough.

After trying several Blog components for Joomla! I became frustrated for various reasons, and always had a "But I wish it could do...this" moment with the others. After trying EasyBlog, I was blown away with it's feature rich admin and beautiful front-end presentation. I have been running this on a site (won't name here) and I can tell you that I have over 1,500 ORGANIC unique hits per day on that blog, 75% of which are unpaid organic google search referrals! I'm an EasyBlog "lifer" at this point! Thank you StackIdeas for a masterpiece component, and thank you for caring for your customers. It shines brightly through your fantastic tech support. Every email thanked me for being a customer, unnecessarily apologized for any even small inconvenience, gave a fixing solution promptly and stressed to not hesitate to contact if I had an ounce of trouble! You guys(gals) ROCK!
