The Joomla! Extensions Directory ™

In one sentence:

Ohanah is a powerful combination of both calendar and event+registration management for Joomla in one awesome extension.

Top 5 reasons I love Ohanah:

1) Easily create events, customize event registration forms plus customizable registration details can be automatically sent by email.

2)Events look great displayed on a calendar or as a sortable list of events (or both). Both adjust to your template (no separate template to buy).

3)Event details page uses 'module injection' ..modules are inserted into the desired position of your template with the corresponding data related to that event (ie, map, venue location, event pictures, etc).

4) Sortable. The filter module is awesome! We have a ton of events. Our users can sort through our calendar+list of events by seven different variables. Without it, our list of events/calendar would be totally cluttered like a Google calendar.

5) Flexible ...tons of options to select from in the admin area. Repeating events. PayPal, MailChimp integration. Works out of the box. Really clean admin area. After JCE and Widgetkit, Ohanah is the best coded Joomla extension I've seen.

Ohanah is the perfect example why Joomla rocks: better extensibility. We've pretty much replaced Eventbrite and 30boxes with Ohanah ...lets see you do that Wordpress or Drupal.

I tried quite a few event components before finding Ohanah. I loved how easy it was to setup and the interface is clean and well designed.

I was impressed how good it looked without doing any sort of modifications at all!

I had a question concerning a possible future add on and the support was quick and helpful. That is huge.

I highly suggest you give it a try for yourself. Great features and solid support.

f you're looking for a good event extension for Joomla, you should definitely consider Ohanah. The back end administration is very simple and intuitive and I almost did not have to read the documentation to set things up (although I have some experience in Joomla so that helped).

And I thought it looked quite good out of the box on the font-end as well.

Romano, the support person that responded to me, was very quick in responding to the issues that I did have and he was able to help me figure out how to get around a couple obstacles that came up for me.

It also a good sign that the support team is continuing to develop the app and they seem to be listening to their users about what the next step is.

I definitely recommend this and if you do consider it, take the time to try out the demos on the backend and front end so that you can be sure it's what you want.

Hello!

I bought this component for a event website. The component itself is easy to use and the first look is great. BUT, if you try to change something like resize the picture of the events in the list view (which is standard 100px x 100px) you will find no easy way! Yes, friendly support is available, but this really basic feature is not part of their code at the moment (Version 2.1.8). Also there is no possibility to have different kind of tickets, like tickets for adults, kids. I was looking at their page more then 10 times and spend a lot of time before I bought it, but it wasn`t enough. Their refund policy is strange: if they have a bug and cannot fix it you will get your money back, but not in my case, because changing of a picture in the list view is not part of the code.

Sorry guys but this is FOR ME kind of "buy a alpha version" and hope that the developer will bring the basic features at "one day".

For other users: ask, ask and ask them for every feature you need before you buy Ohanah.

All the best for you!

We installed Ohanah as we wanted a way for people to start their own events as part of a grassroots community development.

The way Ohanah handles module placement takes some getting used to but solves some of the problems caused by having the extra level of dynamic function.

We did have a slight problem with users having problems logging in if their name contained an unusual text element, However the support team solved this straight away.

The only aspect I'd still like are the ability for fronted adding of a recurring event,hopefully this will appear in the future.

so a very good extention, further a perfect support team that will help you at their best, even if you are a newby ... in you need a calendar use ohanah

Very easy to setup and to administer. Thank you for this great software.

I use Ohanah extension for registration of my students for a kitesurfing school. These works out perfectly.
They help me to specify their component for my needs at no cost. Don't hesitate of paying money for such a great product - their calendar worth it!

Too many apps are either functional OR beautiful, this app is both. A super easy install & configuration and I had people seamless event management & registration within 15 minutes. This is perfect for sites in production that can't afford downtime, or environments where a test installation isn't feasible. I look forwards to future development of this app as well as other apps they may have up their sleeves.

Excellent service, fast and competent. Future versions should implement some options currently lacking for optimal management of multi-partner events.

My solution for my customer was to have many older people insering events via frontend e.g. swimming every wednesday, ohana is not able to fulfill this needs.

The only software i know that supports frontend recurring events out of the box is superevents.

Also no solution after hugh talks with the support team by more than a handfull of ohana customers.

So in the end i wasted time for waiting for the feature, talking to the staff and money for the supscription during waiting.

The Ohanah team has improved their calendar tremendously in the previous months. They've finally added recurring events, the interface is extraordinarily clean, I can add custom fields to event registration, and it does everything we needed for my client's board game store.

Support is fairly quick and responsive, too.

The tool itself is mostly bug-free and has solid user event creation functionality, calendar displays, and overall theming. Everything looks nice and flows readily; it's very 'clean' in its design.

jEvents was preferable for 1.5, but for 2.5 and modern joomla sites, I see no reason not to use Ohanah.

Beautiful and versatile events extension. I've used every extension I could find to create a robust calendar but couldn't find one that hit every issue until Ohanah. Fantastic use of mapping and professional yet contemporary styling. I wish more extensions were like this one. Very highly recommend

I purchased Ohanah for a client that needed a simple, easy to use ticketing component for their website. The main issue was making sure my client could setup an event and track registrations very easily since they do not have any web experience. Ohanah is perfect for their needs. Highly recommended!

Ohanah is a versatile component that serves just about any "upcoming events" or event registration need. The component neatly integrates into Joomla themes and the backend configuration is user-friendly. When needing to tweak the component to suite the unique demands of your website, Ohanah support is exceptionally responsive and helpful. Although the component is not cheap, it is superior to any other option I am aware of and well worth the investment.

I have used RSJoomla but now I've switched to Ohanah. The admin is very userfriendly and my customers doesn't need much training to publish their own events.

And if anything comes up the support is great. Thanks again :-)

Bought this extension for organize events and i was very happy with the product and also the easiness of installation and the creation of events with different characteristics. It's very easy for the client also to update and create events, it has an appealing design and a good organization.
Definitely a valued tool for managing events.
Also, some doubts appear and the support was very effective and quick.

This extension is very easy to use and customize. The support is great and fast. I use it to manage a simple list of events and it does the job perfectly.

No doubt it will soon be a hit.

Hi (excuse my english)
I have Ohanah in many sites for some clients and they are really happy with the simplicity and powerfull of this tool.
A detail that do them really happy is the ability of locate in a map the site of the event and, off course, the integration with some payment systems.

Thanks Ohanah ;)

The component is full of useful features. It does what is promises and more. I especially like the slick UI, very clear and user friendly design.
Speaking of support i must say this is excellent, very quick replies and always with a good solution or answer.
I absolutely recommend this product.
