I have been looking around for a gallery component that is simple to use and makes it possible to add galleries and images in the Joomla frontend. Adding images should be easy, preferrably with a drag-and-drop upload. The Ignite Gallery is the only component that I have found that fulfills all my needs. The support has been fast and nice. Heartily recommended!
I needed a gallery component that had a front-end photo upload capability. Ignite Gallery's 'drag and drop' frontend upload component is very easy for even unsophisticated users. I have really come to appreciate the component's use of profiles for different kinds of gallery displays. I have been able to easily embed specific galleries in my articles and have them display quickly in a nice-looking popup lightbox. Galleries and slideshows load very rapidly compared to other gallery components I have used.
The support so far has been excellent - I had a small issue related to photo orientation that the developer was quick to respond to. Although the fix to this may take a little time, I am confident it will get addressed in a future release.
Definitely worth the money.

We recently purchased the ignitegallery component for a client's site and want you to know it is the PERFECT solution for his requirements. It works straight out of the box just as described and demonstrated with no big learning curve, nasty surprises or 'bugs'.
I had to ask a question before I bought it and was pleasantly surprised to get the answer within an hour of having sent the email message. This is a 'SWEET' extension and I wanted to thank you for creating it and making it available at a reasonable cost. It is truly worth every penny.

This gallery is easy to configure and use. It has more features and options compared to any gallery that I have used in the past. If you're looking for a gallery with the option to add great descriptions, tags, and links, which is perfect for search engine optimization, this one beats all others hands down. I've been a user and a fan for more than three years and just needed a minor issue resolved. Matt had already resolved it in the latest release, I upgraded, and it is flawless. Thanks Matt for the 'perfect' gallery!
After literally hours of finding a gallery that allowed front end user to upload and manage their own pictures, as we as offering a component, plugin and module I was so happy when I stumbled on ignite. Their website is so informative and convinced me to purchase the component. Sometimes you worry that what you download isnt what they describe.. but this couldnt be further from the truth. Its a great component. I had a few little issues when setting up correct permissions, so I emailed support and they got back to me really fast. They pointed me to the right place on their website that holds user guides. The user guides are brilliant! You will not be disappointed with this. And you can feel confident that the guys are going to give you superior support. Thank you
I was in 2minds whether to buy this or not, thought should give it a try as it looked good from the demos. Bought it, I'm not a developer but I was blown away by the support I got! Its excellent! The gallery was perfect and i got all the help I needed to set it up and any questions I had very answered promptly..The extension is beautiful, easy to use and serves the purpose. In my opinion one of the best available in the market today. I got worth of every penny I spent. Good Luck to the team..keep up the good work!
My experience with ignite products and support has been excellent.

We have been using the Ignite Gallery since the end of 2011 and apart from being a beautiful extension that is well documented it has been rock solid. Currently we have over 8000 images in different galleries using mostly the content plugin and module to display them on our site.
Over all that time there was only the need to contact support twice and their response was quick and very professional (By the way both occasions were not directly related to the Ignite Gallery itself, but rather to server side settings or third party products).

I looked for days (literally) for a gallery that had the flexibility I needed for my commercial Art Gallery site. Ignite was it. Every time I had a question I received an immediate response with help from Matt & Simon. I'm very happy, and can't imagine working with a gallery that is as easy to use and offers as many professional options as this one.
for me ignite gallery is one of the most beautiful component for make a personalized gallery in Joomla!
Have long used this gallery on many sites, because of the amazing flexibility of creating & editing multiple layout profiles, and the ability to nest categories.
It also stores the original images to re-create resized images as needed (for use in different layout profies), without damaging the originals.
Given the flexibility (not just in image layouts, but also ability to include html description areas) you can actually build out entire sections of a website (similar to many directory tools) using this gallery.

I have had numerous Joomla websites and have now switched over to Jooma 3.0 for my latest website. I have installed and tried over 200 extentions over the last few years and this is my first comment ever. There is a LOT that is different in Joomla 3.0 and not all that many extentions for it yet, including Ignite Gallery (But they are working on it). I requested support from Ignite Gallery and got a response right away that they are working on a Joomla 3.0 version. Great news, but it wasn't available yet. I told them I needed it as soon as possible so they worked with me to install a pre-release version. It didn't work. Matt from Ignite Gallery worked with me on my website, changed a few things in the code and now it works perfectly. I could not be happier with their product and their wonderful support. I highly recommend this extention! The product and the excellent support are well worth it.
This is a very good working image gallery.
Absolutly the most wonderfull and best gallery there is for joomla.
Thanks a lot!

I have tried over the years many galleries, and still try out new or updated ones on occasion.
Ignite Gallery is by far the best, with fast support response time, and knowledgeable help/updates/fixes.
Great response and load times with VERY little overhead.
Easily configurable as well as customizable with many built in options. Did I mention the great support yet?
This by far is the best gallery component out there and well worth the small cost.

I've been looking for a gallery component that would allow my site users to upload photos in bulk, WITHOUT having to zip it up, for months, and here you are. With bells on. Simply excellent.
This component is well worth the money.
The documentation is easy to follow and the gallery has a lot of different options for how it displays images.
The email support is also excellent.
Having tried many gallery extensions, I find this extension to be the best and most suitable for most web sites.
