Editor's Note
- This extension requires registration to download.

This in no way should have been released in this condition. Any customization of fields such as is touted will be erased if any of the formatting of the "formattable" HTML forms is touched. That's ONE big issue. Following the link to "update" your registration information gets you nowhere, no data to update. Confirmation emails don't work (Thank You emails DO seem to work, although don't allow access to cancel your registration). Multiple-person registration DOES count down the total seats allowed, as it should, and contrary to what some reported. There were zero permissions set on the php configuration file on the server side. All in all, it looks like it was just abandoned as a project, with volumes of programming information in there that's not even near-prepared to work yet. So if it were entirely FREE, perhaps I wouldn't be inspired to write this note, but because we're made to pay support subscriptions, and since the owner stated in the forums that support is not included for this program, it should work as stated and not have to rely on "support." I have no choice but to uninstall it and look for a safer solution.

Very buggy and not well supported at this time. Seminar for joomla! by Dirk Vollmar is a good alternative.
This doesnt work yet and it will compromise your users data. There is a bug that doesn't seem to be fixed. You should pay for more expensive versions if privacy, or accuracy is a must for you.
Sorry for the negative review, but it really is a major problem.
The support seems to be trying, but they cant replicate the problem which is a problem. This is not just my issue, but several people in the forum.
I paid for this...kind of a waste

Overall, "I'll Be There RSVP" has great potential. Install is very straight forward and setting up events easy.
Pros:
Easy Setup and Config
CB Integration
Flexible Custom Fields (Global or Per Event)
Nice look that blends with current template
Cons:
Nasty, hard to reproduce bug showing up causing registrations to get overwritten if events open to non-registered users. Hopefully they will track down and squash this soon. Makes it unusable if you're hit by it.
Built-In fields for all events difficult to see, which can lead to duplicating things.
Like to See:
Integration for Paid events
"Family" Registrations - Think along the lines of Parents registering their children
Field Requirement Dependencies - If Field A has a certain value, Field B should be required
Integration with JCal Pro (I think this is coming)
Great start! Final 1.0 version should be a winner.

Review on Version 1.0.0 Beta.
At the time of this review it is still listed as a "Beta" release.
This package has a great set of features that can only compare to more expensive event registration packages. It is great value for money.
There are some bugs with time format and additional field entries, but the developers are very attentive on their forums so this product is very well supported.
Note that RSVP currently does not integrate with their flagship extension JCal Pro, although it does appear to be in the pipeline.
Top marks for simplicity and value for money.

Owner's reply
Thanks for the note Zarth. We've a maintenance build in hand and thanks to the end users, have another round of bug-fixing due this week. It's really coming together.
