tried it time ago for another project with not much success. tried it again last week for a new customer project and is always at the same point of development. quite outdated as features, agree with others complaint, it was ok 3 years ago but nowadays there are more innovative timelines!
Owner's reply

Please let us know what features are missing for you and we will implement them.

Currently Art Timeline has features that other timelines for Joomla! do not have: event categories, multiple bands, mobile devices support, and dozens of others.

This was ok 3 years ago but there are now ways to create timlines much better in 2012...just google it if you want something up to date
Owner's reply

Thank you for the review.

If you just compare Art Timeline with any other you can see that Art Timeline has dozens of features other timelines do not have and Art Timeline can be used easily from Joomla!

That's is why it is so popular among hundreds of customers.

We all know choosing an extension is, in most cases, gambling. What if there will be nobody behind it, to support and improve it down the road..?
In the case of Art Timeline, not only the product is so easy to use, innovative and simple to customize, it has also an amazing team behind it. This is team has passed my test - it was there when I needed them. Not only they explained with patience, but they also took the time to troubleshoot my issue by providing me with a ready to install solution. It is rare and highly appreciated. Reading through their well maintained forums, I learn they take all other customers seriously. It only took one customer who asked the Art Timeline to work on iPhone and Android for them to provide the solution that same day... amazing! ...and highly recommended. A++++++

If you have need for a timeline, give this one serious consideration.

Very easy to use and integrate with several options for feeding data to the timeline.

Appearance is easily modified through the interface and CSS.

Support is fast on the forum and via email.

Needs a few tweaks but works out-of-the-box very well.

Would purchase other extensions from this company based on this experience.

I've bought this timeline module to using on a website of a client of mine. First, there are several issues on specific customizations, but thanks to the dedication of the development team which help me all the way in realizing my objectives, i finally succeed in making it work as my client's needs. Not to mention this is a truly handy component in its category.

Great Service and Great Extension. (I just love it)

I purchased the Timeline Extension and I needed some support with the setup. The response was fast.

During working with it I noticed a problem with google trans working with this module. Less than 1 hour and the problem was solved.

So now it WORKS great with the GT.

Really great. 10 stars from me!

The availability of self-hosted timeline software is very limited at present. I have seen criticism of Art Timeline for basing their work on Simile Widgets Timeline, one of the few other offerings, but Simile offer open source projects so, if Art's version really is based on it, what is wrong with taking a source freely provided by the community, but which is immensely complex to set up (I've tried, and failed), and turning it to something that a non-programmer can use with ease?

It lacks the richness of the full Simile project but it works and you don't need to be a code wizard to get a fairly sophisticated project up and running quickly.

If there is any formal documentation for Art Timeline it has eluded me so far, but most of the setup requirements are fairly obvious and, as others have already noted, the support via forums and e-mail is fast, efficient and, most importantly, very tolerant and helpful towards those of us who flounder a bit when faced with making tweaks to JavaScript, CSS or PHP. There is also a very responsive and encouraging attitude towards suggestions for new features or improvements.

Hosted feature-rich timelines are available in increasing numbers but most have limitations unless you are willing to pay regular subscriptions. If you prefer, or need, self-hosting and a power-hungry multi-media timeline is not required you must give Art Timeline serious consideration.

In 8 years of using Joomla I can safely say these guys at Artetics know their stuff. Firstly the extension is amazing straight out of the box. Secondly the support is incredible. I was unsure of the import process so emailed and it was solved, there and then, with amazing advice and a real gift for customer satisfaction. Over the years some developers get support right and some wrong...these guys take the lead..and amazing extension with amazing support. Extensions like make my life soooo much easier...a class apart.

My company wanted a means to create an interactive Product Roadmap for customers using Joomla. This tool more that met our needs, but I did have a couple of questions during setup—and that's where Artetics really shined! Their support team did more than respond within 24 hours. On my first e-mail, they responded within 1 hour. Incredible!

I was looking for a tool to display when my articles are scheduled to appear. I bought Art Timeline because it supports SQL queries which seemed to be what I was looking for. I had a minor issue with the solution at first, but the Art team resolved it within the hour by sending me an update. Works like a charm!!
Here's my SQL statement to create a timeline which displays all articles which are scheduled AFTER 'today':

SELECT title, introtext as description, publish_up as start_date FROM #__content
WHERE (publish_up > CURDATE()) AND (state>0)

I thought, I should inlude that to show how flexible this tool is... and, before I forget, it also looks quite appealing too ;)
