The service is worth the money

JFBConnect
These Facebook connectors are complicated. This one functions more smoothly than MyAPI (which is free) but the real value, what you pay for, is the service.

Alex is prompt, polite, patient, thorough and very helpful. I had what turned out to be a very,very specific problem related to virtualisation of IE, and he helped me isolate it very quickly.

And the functionality, well, getting your site playing nicely with Facebook is a very nice feature, good for traffic. And since the API on Facebook changes a lot, you want a product with good support, like this one.

This is a full workflow

SEBLOD
JSEBlod CCK is unique in the extent that it lets you take control of your publishing workflow. We have long faced the problem of making the back-end of sites highly usable for clients, since Joomla is quite a complicated CMS.

JSEBlod lets you customise your input forms, and lets you have default content in a way that makes this very easy for the end-user. It gives you an incredible amount of control over the fields in your content, and how your users access them.

What it is not is a simple component. Whilst not a coder I am a fairly experienced builder of Joomla websites (doing it commercially for 4 years now) and I found this component challenging. The documentation is a bit sparse and pitched at the more advanced functions. There is a lot of advanced functionality, so that is perhaps not so strange.

However the guys on the team are really friendly, I raised this issue with them, and they responded that they saw the need for more basic documentation. So this is an amazing component with a really good team behind it that is only going to get easier to use in future.

A lack of backend workflow management

Pro Desk
This component does well to integrate a knowledge base, FAQ and testimonial system with the help-desk, a feature that made it stand out from the crowd for us initially.

However, when we bought the product and installed it, it became clear that the categorization of the tickets is done mainly at the front end, and the department and issue type of the ticket is fixed once submitted.

This means there is little back-end management, little chance to assign the ticket to staff members, so this is only really useful for a fairly small support set-up.

This is one of the pricier components in this category, so this is a bit of a disappointing gap in the functionality.
