** CHANGELOG **

v. 2.0.2
- Better PHP 8 support. J5 support

Functionality
When I first starting using ARI Data Tables, the product was exactly what I needed. I was very happy with it for many years.
Ease of use
Kind of clunky. It tries to be the Swiss Army Knife of Data Tables so it's a bit of a wade to figure out how to set it up.
Support
There is "No ETA for Joomla 4 Support" and PHP 8.0 is also not supported. I cannot recommend ARI Data Tables for any new years.
Documentation
The documentation is minimal but I was able to find everything I needed for my use of this product.
Value for money
For Joomla 3, it is great value for money. But with no support for PHP 8 or Joomla 4, the value for money equation changes for the worse.
I used this to: I use this for displaying data from MySQL tables in Joomla articles.
Owner's reply: We are really sorry for this late release, but now "ARI Data Tables" supports Joomla! 4.x as well as PHP 8.x.

Joomla 4?



Posted on 28 October 2022
Functionality
Used to be excellent, but no longer. Why are the developers stalling on Joomla 4 implementation?
Ease of use
Worked perfectly fine while it worked, but it is now unusable for Joomla 4 website.
Support
Last updated in 2014? Come on, developers. You are not serious. Please update and respond to requests!
Documentation
Value for money
Okay until recently, but very poor as long as the extension is not J4 compatible.
I used this to: Data tables on my website. Ordering tables by columns was very useful.
Owner's reply: We are really sorry for such late release. "ARI Data Tables" v. 2.x supports Joomla! 4

Good component (FOR JOOMLA 3)



Posted on 26 September 2022
Functionality
With this component you easily make nice tables on your website. Also import of CSV-files is possible. Only working on J3.
Ease of use
It is pretty easy to use. Maybe for beginners there will be a learning curve.
Support
Support is very bad. They refuse to give an indication when there extensions are ready for J4/PHP8. If you need extensions for J4, stay away
Documentation
Documentation is minimal, but from the samples you can come to a nice result. Also there are forums with info.
Value for money
It does what it promisses (ON Joomla3) It is unknow if and when it is suitable for J4 !!!
I used this to: Clients websites to show pricelists and other stuff that need to be show in a nice table form./

Terrific extension



Posted on 05 January 2017
Functionality
Worked perfectly right out of the box and accepted Excel produced CSV files with no significant problems.
Ease of use
Took a few minutes, but not a steep learning curve.
Documentation
Could be better but not bad,The only issue I had was how it handled negative numbers, which I corrected with a replace routine on the CSV.
Value for money
Excellent!
I used this to: an historical data driven website where presenting data in tabular fashion is a definite requirement and this extension fulfills that requirement exquisitely.
Functionality
Like anything new you need to get use to the settings. This module / plugin is straightforward and easy to use!
Ease of use
Again once you understand the settings it is really easy to sue and displays your data in a multitude of layouts. Excellent
Support
Excellent support - one of the best out here.
Documentation
Each module/plugin has an explanation of the use when you go to use it. Plus the forum is useful and the developer answers real quick.
Value for money
An excellent value for your money. In fact all of his extensions are excellent values.
I used this to: A football site that I developed that contains stats for every quarterback that ever played for the NFL. (National Football League)

Magic extension



Posted on 21 March 2016
Functionality
installed and running in 1 minute,brilliant.
Ease of use
So easy to use even for newbies
Support
Asked a pre sales question received an answer in 15 minutes with an example of the formatting code I asked for,bought the extension.
Documentation
Good for me
Value for money
Superb functionality for so little money
I used this to: To extract data from a booking site and display it on the frontend.
Functionality
It will not cure cancer, but it's very robust for the price.
Ease of use
It's pretty easy to use for basic functionality. The ability to present sortable tables from SQL queries is obviously a little advanced.
Support
Very fast, helpful and accurate so far.
Documentation
Lacking. There is a summary help file and balloon help for basic usage. Searching the forum helps also. Advanced features not documented.
Value for money
Outstanding. For US$15, everyone should run, not walk to get this. It will add much more value to your website than three lattes.
I used this to: A sortable table of US trade shows on two commercial photography websites.

Excellent Support



Posted on 25 October 2015
Functionality
It does what it says
Ease of use
My knowledge on PHP and MySql is limited. Still I was able to manage.
Support
The best part of the component is the support. The developer was available immediately with a smile to support
Documentation
Value for money
100%
Functionality
It does exactly what it says on the tin.
Ease of use
You need to know your way round SQL queries to get the most out of it but see comment below re support...
Support
Within minutes of being contacted for assistance the ARI team were logged in and quickly grasped what I needed. Superb support
Documentation
Not the best documentation but balanced by the support and excellent user forum.
Value for money
Top value.
I used this to: Pulling data from a Joomla component and displaying sortable data in a front end table. Couldn't ask for more.
Functionality
Extraire des informations à partir des tables Joomla ou autres à partir de requêtes SQL est vraiment très utile.
Ease of use
Franchement facile à comprendre. Le strict minimum à connaitre en SQL et en CSS. Très pratique pour tous !
Support
Le support a répondu à mes questions dans la journée (malgré mon niveau d'anglais très bas...) ;-)
Documentation
Très bien, mais en anglais (donc pas de note à 100).
Value for money
J'ai acheté l'extension "ARI - Smart Content" qui contient en fait contient "ARI - Data Table". Un tr_s bon pack de plusieurs extensions.
I used this to: Mes site en production. Bonne intégration avec les templates "Responsive", utilisable donc à la fois pour les grands et petites écrans. Manque la possibilité de créer/modifier/supprimer les données... ne remplace donc pas un CCK.
Bravo !
