IPrice calculator
Have to say this component is quite unique to joomla extensions. There is not another component like Iprice especially Minimart available for Joomla. It does exactly what the developer says it does. Quite easy to use very versatile piece of kit. I have used iprice calculator for about a year now and have just upgraded to Minimart and it was well worth every penny. This component just gets better and better and I wait in anticipation for any upgrades. The new minimart will surely boost business for me even at todays economic climate. Keep up the great work.

Sorry for destroying your 100% feedback but i have spent to much time trying to get this to work.

Unfortunatley for the developer this may have worked at some point, but it does not work now. ACL tries to cloak but shows the affiliate link instead, which is the whole point to this component. I have also tried oyl which does not work either. It seems joomla developers cant get cloaking to work for some reason. The only cloaking I know that works is pretty link in wordpress.

AppointmentBookingPro
I only wish I could give this component 10 stars.

I have looked at some of the other booking components on Joomla extensions, and they don't even come close to Abpro.

I rate my competency level using Joomla as intermediate. You do not need to be an expert to use ABpro.

I have been testing and configuring Abpro for the last 6 month before my website went live, but this component can be used straight out of the box. I just prefered to have everything perfect in the way of customisation, css etc.. before launch.

I have configured abpro to fit exactly around our service industry business and have to say works flawlessly.

Rob Stevens the developer has given me first class support via their forum. I started 28 different threads on their forum with configuration questions etc.. and all 28 were answered and resolved withing 24 hours.

Rob surely does know this component inside out, I'm sure he doesn't sleep.

The component is very easy to use and very intuitive, this is a must if your business require's online booking and I can't think of a business this couldnt be used for.

When my support and update subscription runs out I will surley be renewing to keep up with the new additions Rob has planned for this component.

Bravo Rob, This component can only get better.

I anticipation of the next release.

Regards

ExtendedReg
This is a great extension and for the people this extension works for is a testament to the developers. Unfortunately this extension is not compatible with Acesef, for this reason we have had to bin ExtendedReg and write off the purchase price. We did contact their support and they identified that the problem was a compatibity issue between the two extensions. We could not give this extension any more than 3 stars for this exact reason. This is the only extension we know of that is not compatible with Acesef. Perhaps the developers of ExtendedReg should compile a list of incompatible extensions before anyon else looses money, which in my language is VOODOO.

This extension definatley cleans your html up. Infact it cleaned it up that well it completely trashed my site. Thumbs down guys. This plugin is not compatible with yootheme templates. Luckily I backed my site up before installing. I would air on the side of caution WHEN USING THIS PLUGIN.

JEFAQ Pro
Well guys you have let yourselves down. You have a great component but your support is very poor. When i mean poor i mean it doesn't exist. Im very dissapointed with you as developers. Also this component does not support SEF urls (Search Engine Friendly) which is a complete waste of time and money. What is the point in having a faqs page if it isnt indexed correctly by Google. Now because ive given these guys a very poor review, I would like to bet they reply to this. Shame they cant reply to their support tickets and forum questions. 2/10

We don't provide support on weekends. On working days, We will promptly respond to all the questions within few hours.

Also, I have seen you here leaving a bad reviews for many extensions. I can see from your profile, Giving a bad review is your habit.

AceSEF
Fisrt of all I would like to say this could be a great extension. Beware when you use acesef because if you don't know what your doing this extension will strip quite a few internal links. I had to check every internal link manually and fix a few along the way, if you have a huge site this could cause you a major headache. The documention for this extension is ok but doesnt give any indepth tutorials for newbies. Im not aware of any other extension developers on here that charge for the video tutorials, these should be free.
Owner's reply

Internal links issue, that's not true since AceSEF will create 301 redirections automatically from old to new links.
You've 0 issues reported which shows our documentation is enough for free users. Also, remember that other SEF extension developers charge not only tutorials but even the extension itself and documentation...

Article-Generator
First of all I would give this extension 10 stars if i could.

A few month back I purchased SEO-Generator who also developed this component. I was so impressed with SEO-Generator I had no hesitation in purchasing Article Generator. I had a few problems at first but I have to say Matthias answered my email for help within minutes and even fixed the problem for me. The support you receive is first class and Im very excited about this developer on his future Joomla extensions. Article Generator to date is the best extension ive used and is worth 10 times what i paid for it.

Well done matthias you are very innovative and keep up the good work. Do this guy a favour for the small amount of money you pay, nominate this extension for editors pick.

Tony B a very happy web designer.

JV-LinkExchanger (jvlinx)
Why do you advertise this extension as non commercial which i presume you mean is free.

And when i register and try to download it asks for a subscription payment. Very Poor way to drum up business and your registration process gave me a headache.
Owner's reply

Ofcourse the product is FREE and tons of users are downloading it everyday from our website.

The problem in your case, is that, your account was pending activation by email, which was sent to you after registration. You never bothered to click on the link to activate your account, until when, obviously you will be denied access to downloads for this free product. We are doing this to protect spam registrations and we cant help it, if you feel this is giving you a headache. It is necessary for us to run a spam free site.

We help our customers in many ways - online chat support, email support, forum support and you still do not seem to have thought about using any of them, to find out why your account was pending activation!. Infact the message clearly says why it is and you never seem to have read it properly too.

Advanced Module Manager
This module can be compared to the God of all modules "And before all you religious types bombard this review accusing me of Blasphemy" I just can not think of another word to rate this module.

The creators are brilliant and I would give this 10 stars if I could. Its flawless and does exactly what it says on the box.

If you are having problem placing modules then this extension is exactly what your looking for.

Keep the good work up guys I will be making a donation for your efforts.

Comparison Chart
I was a bit hesitant to buy this extension as there was a lack of reviews. Im so glad i bought it now because i have been having a nightmare with a table on my website. This extension just takes all that pain away. I submitted a support ticket for a problem I had and they fixed it for me within 30 mins, if thats not rapid support I dont know what is. Keep up the good work Joomplace.
