The Joomla! Extensions Directory ™

Using this component on the administration side is very intuitive and fun.
However it is slightly difficult to override the front end layout, and there are some little bugs with the module integration.

Great piece of software, works exactly as i want after speaking to support for a few moments. Would definitely recommend!

I've tried many modules for my site joomla but finally i've chosen JNEWS.
A complete product, free (important for a humanitarian site) with a support very competent and rapid!!
I've found a little bug and on 10 minutes all is repaired...
Never seen a support so rapid and interested to help you.
Strong points:
- complete module
- rapid support

This is one of the best after using acajom from same developer, its best because support is amazing, can you believe getting email support on holidays and sunday. Apart from the regular live chat support, the guys even give support over email and telephone. Special thanks to Cherry and Diego.

Hey trust me normally i dont take the time to write reviews, but this guys deserve it, just buy it no need to think twice. Amazing tool, im using for my most of the clients now. Wish there were more features like additional fields while importing like company anme and other things and more depth in jlinks.

Thanks to joomla community and developers like jnews, our life is become easy.

this is the best componen for send of newsletter, I recomend buy of compoment is really necesary for enjoy alls this thinks,

An excellent extension specially for non-specialists in web. There are some minor conflicts specially in the configuration areas (some 'quotes' missing for some variables in php files) but even myself I've managed them. I highly recommend.

I upgraded to JNews from AcaJoom News. I left the AcaJoom News on the site, installed the JNews, and then exported from the old and into the new the subscribers and previous newsletters. The program upgraded well, I only had a few issues with the upgrade. I received immediate and excellent support on the problems and ultimately the issues and a configuration that I had ovelooked. Evelyn was always available throughout my numerous chat's online and always was genuinely supportive.

This is a great extension which I am currently using now. I had a few problems at the start but after working with the support team they were quickly solved. I hope I will still be using this extension in the months to come

The program is excelent!!!

I´m new on joomla then i have some difficults to configure, the support team is wonderful, a lot(tons) of patience (rsrsrs), great courtesy (they really enter on my site to help the configuration, that´s save my life).

Altough i think the support is a robot(not a person), they are ontime 7/24/365, incredible (rsrsrsr).

I´m really happy with program and support, it´s a dream to me with everyone act like them.

Now we can send messages from my site automaticaly, thats perfect. If you want to increase your relationship with your subscriber´s, that´s the better choice, you can trust.

Congratulations Joobi Team and thanks for all the help.

I already knew the Acajoom Joob and was quite impressed with the functionality of jNews. One small problem with the module Subscribe at Website Front-End Support Online was solved by readily.

This is a Great Extension!
Thanx for developer!

JNews is a very powerfull Newsletter-Tool. Many funktions and many features.
I had a Problem wit import Subscribers at HTML-Recievers. In the Support-Chat they helped me friendly. At the end they send me a little Script per Mail, and it works. A great customer-Support! Thumbs up!

I have upgraded today from Acajoom to jNews Pro and the update has worked. After updating i had several questions and checked out the live support on http://www.joobi.co/live-support. After a few seconds i get professional help and all my questions are answered correctly i no time...

Thank you guys for that great component and your support.

I used to install Acajoom for some "small" customers and I can tell that jNews can do the same things but better.
Thanks a lot for this extension.

It's a good E-newsletter module. Full function for send and management e-newsletter.I purpose the statics and auto-response function.

I am a digital amateur and I tried to install jnews on my website. The functionality seemed to be OK, so I try to upgrade. The beginners fault were easily corrected by the team. A bug was fixed very fast and I was surprised of the answer time during the WE.

I was a satisfied user of Acajoom News for years. When I upgrade to jNews I received a full and freindly support from Joobi team in the middle of the night or early in the morning.
Because I am not quite good at this stuff, they were willing to manage the problems I encounter from backend.
I really appreciate that. Friend in need is friend endeed.

I use jnews pro since a long time now and I'm happy since the very first day. But I must say also that they have a GREAT support, patient and with competence. 6 stars !

Im very satisfied with the Jnews module and the support is even better. There is very fast and service minded people behind this component!

I have only worked with the component for a week so i don´t have much to say except that its good so far. Will update later with more information!

This review is for Jnews Social. I am not sure if thats ok, but here goes

I got a test version of Jnews social 3 weeks ago, and I am still not able to use it, so I did not finish the purchase yet. Some issues I encountered:

1. Error when trying to upload template files.

2. My language was supposed to be included, but the language file was only partially translated.

3. The native and commercial templates were messed up. It turned out that the paths was wrong.

4. I am using usernames and not real names, but the Jomsocial tags includes real names. this was corrected on my site yesterday. Its a major privacy issue for users using usernames, but apparently the option to switch will not be included, according to support, so I will need help on this on every upgrade.

5. The tag for including Joomla modules still does not work. First they blamed the editor, changed it and declared problem solved, but its not solved at all.

6. The tags for Jomsocial is not in the language file. Problem still not solved.

About the support itself:

1. Topics closed prematurely and strange questions which seems absolutely non-relevant. For example in the case of the templates being messed up, I was given directions for switching colour codes for no apparent reason. When I asked about the relevans, I got no answer.

2. A supporter did some testing in the backend and send out a newsletter to 60 users which included a messed up template with default content and tags including users real names, so not only did the users get a strange ugly mail, some of them got their privacy violated. I complained about this, but got no excuse at all. Only comment was asking about the time for the sending.

Conclusion:
Ever got the feeling that you payed good money for what essentially is a beta? I got that feeling about Jnews Social. Also, the support is unprofessional. They seem to prefer to ask for backend access rather that give you info on how to fix for yourself. Combined with the lacking respect for a live site, this means that personally I do not feel safe handing over backend access. So if this is the only way I can get things fixed, I am not sure if I dare to place the order, to be honest.
