This is Perfect for my Website! There really is nothing like this for joomla. Not with all the options this has. It has soooo many features, I can make it do just about anything!
Not to mention the prompt unmatched service! I have never had service like this from any module i have downloaded. He took the time needed to get this thing running the way i wanted! Thank you

Blessings be upon you and your great company.
BlastChat for the win.

Looks great on the surface, but use requires you to login from your server to the blastchat page.. not sure if that is really good for me, the shoutbox also requires that you enable public chat, which certainly doesn't work in all scenarios and doesn't fulfill the need I have. It looks like a nice shoutbox, but frankly the execution and over control by the developer is rather off-putting.
Owner's reply

You obviously did not explore all BlastChat administration and configuration options:

1. BlastChat Shoutbox doe snot require login to blastchat page, only if you (administrator) need to configure your shoutbox in more details (access rights to the rooms, create new rooms, etc). Your regular websitevisitors (guests or member) might not even realize they are using hosting chat service.

2. there is no over control of chat or shoutbox by us, but because this is hosting service it requires you to administer your chat/shoutbox on our servers using our website pages.

3. yes, we require you to make BlastChat Shoutbox module a public module, but you can configure your shoutbox room to disable access, or to set read only access for various user groups (guests, members, admins) (i.e. it allows you to make shoutbox visible to members only)

We are pretty sure you can configure shoutbox to your exact needs (if not, feel free to contact us and request new feature or new configuration option)

This module is a great add-on for the component. It has allowed me to add flexibility to my web site and acts as a great addition to what is already the best chat software available for Joomla! web sites.
