This component is AMAZING! I use it to create complicated multi-page forms even in Quick Mode. It's so easy to do. I always thought I had to pay big bucks for custom forms. But with this component, I can create them myself...very inexpensively.
Had some issues with Unicode and developer really went extra miles to help me out. Again, excellent product and first-class support. Well worth the money!

I have used 4 different file upload extensions and tried creating my own code for what I needed. I cold not get what I needed, and support was ok to bad.
BF has a good Flash upload element, but I needed it to create a directory from the registered username for the uploaded file to go to. Not only did they help me, Markus wrote the code, emailed it to me and told me how to implement it. They are great! Thanks Markus!

Unfortunately, we are first after many days test and try of other Form-Extensions to BreezingForms approached. We could have saved ourselves many nerves, time and grief if we had immediately used BreezingForms. From our point of view there is no alternative to this extension. So grief and worries saves you. Support, Handling, adaptation and all other with it in connection-standing you will love with this extension! So I love it! And what is, on this occasion, already a small financial support for the developers who pays off 1000-fold again?
This is a really good component. Within a few minutes, you have a great form. I’m using BreezingForms a couple of years now. It is easy to use. There are updates and improvements on regular bases. BreezingForms is the ultimate tool for every simple and advanced form. And the customer service is great as well. Most of the time a response within one day! Great work! Job well done! Thanks!!
Five stars would lead to believe that this extension leaves nothing to be desired, but I can not think of any extension for which that is true. BreezingForms does deserve the predicate Excellent though, so five stars it is nevertheless.
I worked with FacileForms, BreezingForms' predecessor for Joomla! 1.x, and was disappointed to find out that the core developers decided not to continue development and make it available for Joomla! 1.5. Fortunately Markus Bopp of Crosstec found the courage to take on that task and since he did, BreezingForms has improved immensely. While leaving the classic FacileForms design mode intact, he improved usability enormously by adding two alternative user interfaces, while maintaining flexibility and customizability for most part. And if I may believe Markus, there's a lot more to come in the near future.
Apart from being a useful and versatile extension, possibly the best forms extension for Joomla! out there, support is good too. Replies to forum topics usually is adequate and when signed up for a payed subscription, support is swift, efficient and well worth the money.
So I advice every (potential) forms developer to at least give BreezingForms a serious try and definitely sign up for a payed subscription as to support Markus' great efforts in improving this already excellent extension.

I have now been using Breezing Forms for almost a year. I use the QuickForms method and find it very easy to use and that I am able to set up new forms in a short amount of time. My site now has forms set up in modules as well as in articles (pop-up forms as well as embedded in the article page) and I love how they look and behave.
I did have some problems initially trying to figure out some of the validation functions of the fields in the forms, but I submitted a support ticket and received excellent help to all of my questions and quick responses. The support staff seem eager to help. I will continue to use this product.

After checking out a number of free form extensions, I took the plunge and bought a subscription for BreezingForms since the demos looked stunning. At first, the setup looked a little complicated, but after playing around with a few of the sample forms I ended up having an incredible Contact Us form on my site in less than 10 minutes. There was a problem with my subscription, but after submitting a support ticket, Crosstec owner Markus e-mailed me the extension right away and also fixed my subscription. Well worth the money!
If you want to create only a simle contact form or any other type of forms... I can recomand this program.
It impresses with its simplicity.
I've tried about 10 programs, no one has the scope of possibilities like this.
The so-called easymode makes honor to its name. All fields can be freely arranged,
even photos can be included within a form, thanks to the possibility including html.
As i have no idea about programing, i use the Joomla WISYG editor (paste and copy) if i want to make any special stuff. But under
normal circumstances, it is not required). This program invites you creating something special ...
Any question i had, was found in the forum, or within the plenty of manuals within Internet.
Thanks for a great job, well done ...

This is hands down the easiest, most comprehensive form component avaliable, IMO, and I've used many of the others avaliable (free and paid). Support through the ticket system is excellent, though the forums are not very helpful (they are community forums so not really the makers fault), there is a lack of documentation which would be very helpful to know what functions are avaliable, some of the knowledge base articles provide incorrect formula's or information, which is a downer when your like me and have very limited knowledge of programming, though once you see the possibilities keep expanding what you want :-). The support is excellent while in subscription period, via the ticket system, though I feel like it would so much more helpful to have more documentation and a more vibrant forums or public answers to previously resolved issues.
I use BreezingForms for simple things like a contact form and more complex things like creating budgets using database data and Paypal. I had tried other forms components but this is the one I prefer, no doubt. Just looking forward for new releases to come. And support is extremelly fast. Excellent!
Not long ago I decided to make a subscription for BreezingForms. I am glad I did, because BreezingForms is really a great component. The developers offer written and video tutorials, so for me it was really easy to figure out how the forms work.
I really love that I am free to use the extensions on all of my joomla projects, because there is no domain restriction.
The support by the way is really fast and very kind. They helped me out twice in the past few weeks. ^_^
