I agree to many reviewers that this component is pretty confusing. I purchased it without testing before; because a customer of mine heard it would be the best form and insisted on this. it doesn't took 5 minutes to realize that this is not the best form component. Maybe I should have buy the pro version... i don't know.
I'm not the kind of malicious person to write bad reviews because i am disappointed of some nitty gritty things. The things annoying me in this component are too many. It took 20 Minutes until I knew how to add a form element.This was because the sub navigation wasn't much different to the main navigation. Why are they not in the same borders of the form field listing? This is a specific navigation! It is also annoying to read the huge information overload. Why not appending information buttons with mouse overs? The worst issue is the navigation. Things belonging together should stay together and not be untidy pickup. I only can advice you to test this component before buying.

This does pretty nice. Not bad. For decent forms, working with code, it's good.

I was looking for something that worked, produced some clean code, and was fairly intuitive without being too awful simple. This foots the bill for that and is quite usable.

3 Stars!! Good work, very usable, produces good forms.

I have been using this extension for about 6 months now and its great! I have just had an issue resolved by the support team who were prompt and friendly - Highly recommended

As many of the disappointed users of this extension I agree with the point of view that this is not extremely easy to use. I am not an absolutely beginner but my understanding of extremely easy to use is different. If I pay money for something and this person / company is promising me a product with skills which are not appropriate I must not wonder that my "customers" will go off.

Not an easy to use extension at all. To make it look as i want, i spent more then a day. The problem is i don't know HTML CSS PHP good enough to achieve what i want fast. From the other side when i pay money (yep, even 9 Euros)i'm waiting everything to be really easy and native.

I just started using joomla for about 2-3 months so far and this has got to be the best purchase I've ever made so far.

Great support, the team quickly answered my queries within a day or so. And they gave easy to do instructions so that even a beginner like me could set up my forms the way I wanted it.

I couldn't be more satisfied of my purchase. Thank you very much RSJoomla! for this great product and your great support team.

RSform is by far the best solution to building custom forms within the Joomla CMS. I used other extensions and not one worked the way I needed it to - but RSform did. Bravo RSform!

Powerful extension. Also a great support. I wanted to put an accept "terms and conditions" box in my form in the Checkbox Group section and that the "terms and conditions" would be a link to the document with those. Support wrote me a line of code to put it in the item section. It worked perfect for my needs. It also integrates perfect with Joomfish. Until now works perfect.

The developer went out of his way to help me implement my form. I was very impressed. The form was easy to install, configure and setup.

I thought this was a very well made product. I was a bit surprised after purchasing and receiving the pro version, it's actually quite a bit different than the standard/lite version that they give away as a trial version.

The product is easy enough to use for almost anyone who is familiar enough with Joomla to create a website in the first place. I really appreciated the Form Layout page, where the individual form elements are simply variables, so you can create your own, 100% custom layout and design of the form using images, css, html, etc. The individual form elements output with unique ID's - so you can style the forms and fields however you wish as well. Any developer or anyone else familiar enough to create their own forms will find it super easy to make the page look however they want.

I liked the tooltips with ChronoForms - and for super basic email forms I would probably suggest Chrono as it does the job well and is free. The real benefit to RSForms, in my opinion, is the Submission Management where it holds submitted info within Joomla as well as emails it to you, and the ability to send Thank You emails upon form completion.

Overall, for the $20 it cost for RSForms, I'm quite happy with the product - I use Joomla 1.5 and had my forms completely built and customized within about an hour with no need for support.

The Customer service was excellent and the form is easy to set up. I did have a question on the Security image and how to set that up, but they automatically set that up for me!!! I love it when I have a question / issue and somebody comes in and does it the right way really fast!!!

Thanks.

After spending lots of money and lots of time trying out other forms creators, I found the solution. THANK YOU! What a lifesaver! Smooth installation, easy to create, easy to configure and design. Everything you need in a form. Insert into modules, articles, no problem! Absolutely beautiful!

Anyone who spend hours and hours ( most of us do ) in front of the computer to figure out extension and read manuals, then search forum for fixes then try to find help - will know how important is to have a little help. And I have been there for over 9 years with various open software various contributions, extensions etc. Still new to joomla but not new. THIS IS first time - when I had support like I had from RSS Form. Simply unreal! guys went extra mile fixed my problem in 1 day. I couldn't believe my eyes this morning when everything work perfectly. This is not only great extension - but support support support is beyond recommendation. And we all know what it means. Worth every penny to buy it. I spend hours countless days to find good extension when found it was glad. Then small problem and here we go..fixed in a day. Unreal! Recommend to everyone even to pros. Small amount to pay for saving time.

I found rsforms pro to be easy to install and easy to use - a better alternative to facile or breezing forms. The after sales support is friendly and effective.

The lack of simple forms management--or even workarounds--is IMHO one of the most glaringly obvious omissions in Joomla. RSform plugs this gap with a simple-enough, yet highly customizable, approach to forms development.

When I bought RSform pro, I had already purchased Chronoforms. Still the additional functionality that RSforms offers justified that somewhat redundant investment. Moreover, when I wanted to add a simple feature (adding a tag that removed default values on field focus), their support staff responded quickly with exactly the answer I needed.

Great extension. Highly recommended.

I take umbrage with the claim * Extremely easy to use *, because I am an extremely novice user, and after paying, could not get it tow work after hours trying. Had to settle for a lesser Forms program, that did the trick without many "Internal Error" messages.

Shame, because the interface is nice.

I am Dutch so I am cheap :LOL:

No, seriously. I have tried almost all non-commercial form generators, but this is a clear example why a donation for registration saves you a lot of time (and thus earning back the money spend).

WYSIWYG designing, also after you save, test and reopen the form again (which some others don't have).
All features nicely separated in several TABS.

Support ticket response from the developers site is fast (I reported a minor issue with 'low priority', but still got an answer next day by email).

Highly recommended!

RSForm! professional component, powerful, with a good level of customization.
The online-support helps a lot !
We use it on professional websites.

I have been trying to play the for-free thing for a long time and I was just fed up with Fabrik's lack of timely J1.5 support.

For $9 USD, this component is worth every penny. Much easy and intuitive!

One thing I didn't really care for was the fact that all the elements' properties reload in the left hand column. With the use of AJAX in the form layout, I would expect them to place the element properties directly below it when editing (after insertion into the layout).

Also note, if you use the 'free-trial' the layout is much different than the Pro version.

I have recently purchased RSform!Pro 1.1.0 rev 17 in order to produce a very simple form. Not being exactly an web developer, I have to say that the product is simple and effective to use and the suport is absolutely great.
Congratulations to both the RSJoomla development and support team, you have done a great job.
