We have been seeking an inexpensive quiz component that will do everything our old one did (which was on a 1.5 site), after e-mailing the previous developer with encouragement to get the component updated to no avail. I almost stumbled across this component and am so thankful I did! It is amazingly easy to use, pleasing to the eye, easy to make minor adjustments (I'm still a novice) and is inexpensive to boot! There were a few bugs initially and the developers went out of their way to assist in getting it right. It does all we need it to do. I cannot say enough about the component or the folks who helped us. Thanks for doing this!

When I first learned Joomla and needed an easy-to-understand editor, I went with a paid one. After several days with their support, was able to get it working properly. How I wished I would have tried this one back then! Now, after upgrading to Joomla 1.7, the one I had been using is no longer available and a friend suggested I look at the JCKeditor and I'm so glad he did. This appears to be easy to use and easy to instruct others on. The only difficulty I had was no css. Having very, very little understanding of even what css is, was able to follow the directions to fix it. Thanks so much!

After upgrading to Joomla 1.7, we lost our weather module and since it is more for appearance than anything else, did not want to spend alot on it. This fit the bill perfectly. I did have two very minor issues which we dealt with in an extremely timely manner. The support was excellent. Thanks for a great extension!

After looking at others, I opted to purchase the SPUpgrade after reading reviews esp. due to support issues (being a novice). I have migrated 2 sites--1 simple 4-page site and the other very large with many extensions which had to be re-uploaded. Not only was the component easy to use even for a novice like myself, but when I did run into issues, the support folks made every effort to assist with fixing it. I am on the very end of upgrading the large site and, sadly, the last component may not be upgradable but that is a different issue. I would highly recommend this product, it was worth the amount paid for it. In addition, I have one more site that I plan on using this for.

After using other components to build relatively simple forms, I opted to try BreezingForms even though it was marked "commercial." This component was very easy to understand via the documentation and even being a novice I was able to get a form up and running in no time. There were one or two issues that required assistance (due to being a novice) and the developer was extremely helpful and responded in a timely manner. This component was well worth the cost and I would highly recommend both for the component and the support.

CKForms initially seemed quite easy for a novice so long as you are patient in learning as the documentation is not "user-friendly" for novices. I would recommend you play with this module extensively on a test site as, once you get into the meat of a form, you may find it no longer fills the need such as multiple selections could not be accomplished. Despite attempting to find answers via the forum and direct contact, there was little assistance received however, there were posts of others having similar difficulties. I would like to see the developer fix some of the features to work better and to provide better documentation.

This is a tremendous component! We've used it on 18 different quizzes and am anxiously awaiting the update so that it will be self-grading and we can delete the ones taken. One thing which would be nice and may be included would be the ability to enable all to take quizzes at one time. If you want to see it in action, go to www.yaim.org, register and go to the Bible Course, there is a quiz following each lesson. Thanks for a tremendous component! (Oh, I might add that I am NOT a pro and was able to learn this quite easily!)
