I have tried most of the slideshow extensions, including the commercial ones. I was pretty disappointed about buying commercial ones, that doesn't deliver as much as this extension.
I really like this extension because it has a wide range of different parameters, and most of all it looks good.
However, this is not rated 5 - as I am missing a few more transition effects. I am not that impressed by the "only slide to the side" effects.
Overall a good product.

As I am a newbie for joomla.So, searching best slider and this seems to fulfill my requirements..
This is the only competent slider component out there.
What do I mean by this? It's the only one with a decent component/module setup that allows my clients to easily and simply manage their slides.
It's easy to setup, works out of the box and supports template overrides.
Plus, it uses Joomla's MooTools framework, so no additional libraries are added to your site's overhead.

No hassle to install
Plus: intuitive admin interface
Plus: highly configurable
Plus: smart slide management
Plus: easy to customize
Plus: perfectly predictable behaviour
Smarter than some commercial components and certainly the best of the free options I evaluated
Thanks to the developers !

This is by far the best slider I have tried, and I have tried most on this site.
Actually signed up for an account just to leave this review.
There are ofcourse always room for improvements and enhancements in most cases, but with this one, I can't think of one as of yet.
And yes, you can set the speed and delay.
Thanks for a great module and component.

This was easy to install and implement. Installed in an article with Load Module. Do watch out for the file directory naming. One suggestion would be a speed control for the sliding effect, it turned out a little too fast for my tastes. Maybe I didn't play enough with the settings.
I have been searching and searching for days and found this comp/mod Its available in 1.5 and 1.6. We use 1.6 and it looks very nice! The only problem is that there are a lot of broken language links and it seems it does not support Dutch, although I have made my own Dutch translation. It keep on going to the English. So I named nl-NL to en-GB and more or less solved the problem.
Have fun with it!
