The Joomla! Extensions Directory ™

I bought this component to enrich data representation on my website. But I was struggling with JQuery conflict problem, which was not their product problem.
But after contacting the support they provided me the solution and even went to backend and modified the source code.
Now All Set.
Many thanks for excellent product and Excellent support. Looking forward to use their other extensions.

This is the sort of product that is so flexible you start looking for more and more ways to use it! I've been using it for over 2 years now and recently one of the articles on my website that makes use of an Art Data function (artmootable) stopped working. I contacted support who offered some suggestions for things to check, but nothing panned out so they had a look at my site and within a very short time they came back with the solution - even though the problem was not with their product! Brilliant. Oh, did I say it's really good value for money, too?

This extension is really excellent, its support has been out of the box for me, I appreciate it so much. I recomend this extension to anyone even with my eyes closed!!!

I brought this component a few months ago, and since then I have found more and more uses for it. It is simply excellent, however the documentation could be a little clearer but if you get stuck the forum/support is the best I have experienced.

Last week I could not get the plugin to work within another third party component and contacted support.
Not only did they fix my issue (which wasn't to do with there product I must add) but also sent me customized file for the component I was using. Wow

For the money, can you afford NOT to have this product. Thanks again for the excellent product and the ongoing support.

This is the core of our Joomla site now.

The ability to consolidate management information to one place is fantastic, and for such a low price point. Also from multiple sources.

I have had a few issues with getting the product up and running but the support from the guys has been first class. The issues that I had were environmental and not actually with this product. The Artetics team helped me reconfigure my server (way above and beyond expectations) to get me working.

This should be on every one's list of must have plugins !

I have only been using this extension for a couple of days, but I am already so impressed I had to write a review. I tried other extensions on the JED, all claiming to be powerful tools to present data. NONE of them can match the power and simplicity of the ArtData.

Within minutes of installing, I was generating sortable tables, bar charts, pie charts, and progress bars based on my stored data. The Artetics website is absolutely LOADED with real-world examples of uses for this product. I was able to easily locate the code for exactly what I needed to do, and it worked flawlessly! No matter what I threw at the extension it simply worked as I expected.

However, like any piece of software, what really makes or breaks an extension is the support. I have to say that after 5 years working in Joomla, I have rarely found support as good as provided by Artetics. First of all, their forum is constantly monitored. The admins give answers which are thorough, and offer complete solutions for the question. I had a question about use of the ArtBar plugin for ArtData, and in less than 40 minutes I had a complete workable solution. To me, that is extraordinary support!! Just take a look at their forum and see how many unanswered posts there are. You will not find many, and they won't last long. These guys are on the ball!

This is the first extension I have purchased from Artetics, and I have decided it will certainly NOT be the last. Support like this is invaluable to me, and I have become a believer in ArtData and Artetics. Great work, guys!!

I have been using Art Data for my company since 1.5 and it has worked great. It is very full-featured and looks great. When I was upgrading to 1.7, I wasn't sure what to do, but the support team at Artetics were very helpful and clear. I am very happy with the extension and I'd definitely recommend it if any of the effects are what you're looking for.

ArtData has enabled me to quickly and easily incorporate SQL reports, graphs, and much more for my clients needs. The support via the Forum is top notch.

Sort of the Swiss Army Knife of Joomla! extensions. Very cool.

It's a really great support and service I have received. It beats all other places where I have also received support. Can be highly recommended.

The extensions of Artetics (I bought ArtData) are really useful for shaping the layout of tables (for example tables copied from Excel).

But what is really stunning is the speed of the support guys: I received a working solution for my problem within half an hour!

Very usefull and top premium service support!

A very useful extension. Simple to install and to use. Flexible and with a good support service.

This package should be part of the core - very excellent!
I had some questions about the tables - the response was almost immediately and brought the solution

I am new to PHP but with the support team help (their even helped me to amend and revert back the file to me within a minute)- NO WORRIES!!

There are lots of plugins in this package and all are quite easy to implement even for a Joomla! rookie.

I'm using the event calendar and table displays. The ArtSQLTable feature made it very easy for me to create a tablular display from my own database table to satisfy an off the wall customer request.

Excellent and very quick response to a couple of questions. Helpful forum.

I was looking for a tool to display charts and database content (tables, as well as single fields) in Joomla. Other solutions that I looked at required either extensive programming, or are full-blown code generators. ARTdata is nicely between.

Download and installation are easy, and once I got started, I was able to create an article containing half a dozen fields / tables in less than an hour.

One caveat: I don't agree with the statement on the Artetics website "You don't need programming knowledge to use this extension". This extension does not have a full graphical interface in which I can select parameters in a dropdown or have input forms, it is "just" a powerful collection of various commands that can be embedded into articles. If you want to use this to access data in a database, you need to be familiar with SQL and know how to create your queries. Otherwise, you need to be comfortable reading "code" and substituting variables to create the desired output.

PROs:
- Easy to handle and to show "something" on your screen.
- Excellent forum support; I got answers within about 5 minutes of posting, and a solution to my problem within an hour.

CONs (which is why I only give 4 stars rather than 5)
- Installation didn't work out of the box. I only got code displayed on my screen, rather than the desired output. Artetics re-sent the installation file within an hour, problem fixed.
- Documentation is very rudimentary
- Need to copy / paste code into my article, even the ARTdata button plugin only shows the code, but doesn't insert it into the article

As a web designer, Art data has helped immensely. It works out of the box & on rare cases when I needed support the developers are more than eager to help,even logging into my Joomla back-end to investigate any issue!

If, like me, you are new to Joomla and somewhat daunted by the scope and complexity of the project then it is refreshing to find a package such as Art Data which provides value, simplicity and consistency.

I have purchased only a handful of software applications which pay for themselves in a very short period of time, this is definitely one of them.

Documentation is not too clear and not quite extensive enough but make no mistake about the level and quality of service from the vendor. Support is both RAPID and EXCELLENT.

All in all, I'm haapy with the package and would recommend it to anyone who needs a plugin 'toolbox' to help them develop their Joomla site. It was a LOT more difficult without it! ;)

not only is the concept awsome, it's been executed brilliantly.

and the support team is most helpfull.

awsome component

Besides the fact that ArtData is a very usefull extension for pulling/showing data from external databases, I must say that support is excellent!
Never got such prompt reactions on questions (today even literally within seconds).

This alone is worth every dollar spent on this product ;)
