I have tested and used other editors looking for JCE. Now that I've found it, I have been using it (and my clients) for over 2 years with excellent results.
After you install JCE, at the bottom of the "success" page we see that the work on JCE is dedicated to his (Ryan's) father.
Ryan, he is proud of you.
JCE is fantastic!
Quality - excellent
Usefulness - excellent
Features - stellar (i.e. beyond excellent)
Configurable - excellent
Ease of installation - excellent
I can't say enough good things about this component and all the useful plugins (especially the latest image manager)
Wish - I wish all the blog components, forum components, and any add-ons that include html entries (e.g. editor text area) would simply allow JCE to create HTML for their application - all users and admins would benefit!
Anyone that uses this component should send a donation immediately. He has single handedly saved hundreds (if not thousands) of people hours-and-hours of time with JCE.

Wow, as I'm new to Joomla 1.5, I was already completely satisfied with the included TinyMC Editor...
So at first I was reluctant to try this one, but what can I say!? It's really worth it!
Thanks to the developer for all the effort...
... and let's pray that some developer-genius might add a slicky slim-highslid-lightbox super-duper popup image-plugin for free some time..

As a Joomla professional having installed and administered a ton of Joomla sites over the years, this is by far the best WYSIWYG editor to date.
Easy to install, simple to configure, yet powerful enough to provide the kind of functionality necessary for any level of 'end-user client expertise'.
This slick little editor goes in all our Joomla installs as a matter of course.

I am a Joomla! newbie. I tried and tried to get JoomlaFCS editor work with much anguish. JCE worked right the first time, I should have just used this to begin with.
Good job ladies and gentlemen!

At last an extension that does what it says on the Box, easy to install, set up and use, this is how they should all be.
A great editor and much more easier and stable to use than the standard TinyMCE editor.
Thanks

What a relief to have this instead of the default TinyMCE. I'm working with Joomla1.5 and an initial slow start with an error message after a successful install of JCE threw me for a loop, but the answer was in the JCE forum. Much nicer to use than TinyMCE. It's well worth the small cost of subscription!
I love this tool, it saved my day so i can spend the time to write this review. Very easy to setup, fully configurable. It was very easy for me to customize to and and change features. For example, I did not want my users to be able to see the raw HTML code, so that button is disabled for them, but enabled for me. And there are many free plugins for this editor.

This for us a standard extension that we install with every site we deploy. The image manager is much better than anything else, and much easier to understand than mosimage. It's really useful to be able to switch between WYSIWYG / HTML view without waiting for a pop-up. Or indeed being able to save your valid code without it being trashed by a dicky code cleaner in a popup HTML window!
Also being able to configure the layout is good as it lets you limit the damage your users can do when they start to use page level formatting. As well as speeding up the load time by leaving out some of the functions that aren't necessary for most users.
A must have for extension.

Great tool, and much improvement over tinyMCE. I really like the way it handles images. That's a huge time saver for me.
Installation takes a while, and patches are manual, which is a pain. Wish they'd work on that.

It seems that every editor has some issue that I find fault with. So far there hasn't been the perfect solution for Joomla, but I notice that I kkep going back to JCE, and the more I use it the more I discover it's good qualities.
JCE takes some investment of time to learn properly if you're relatively new like me. But it is worth it. Quite powerful to use and easy to recommend.

At first I was confused as to what was different about this component from TinyMCE - I downloaded it purely to allow the admins of my site to upload images from the frontload for insertion within articles, however I didn't think to click on the "insert image" button itself until I had exhausted all other possibilities - my mistake! Great plugin, offers exceptional media handling skills, and a great admin panel in the backend - cheers :)
Layers and tables made easy. Not buggy and nice plugins. I tried many editors and this one is my favorite so far.
