The Joomla! Extensions Directory ™

We've used MooFAQ and Contact Enhanced for years with great success. Need help? The forum is constantly monitored and answered. Need more help? Douglas is right there via e-mail to help you resolve anything with his products.

Easy to manage, configure and in case you don't get it - there's a ton of tutorials & knowledge base articles. Combined that with a well "Solved" forum and there's no reason any Ideal component won't rock your site.

The component and team behind the component are one of the best teams creating components for Joomla. There are a handful of groups out there helping Joomla become the leader in CMS's and CorePHP is at the top of this group.

Seamless integration, beyond amazing support. They work all hours and reply no later than next day. I only needed support because of a stupid oversight that had nothing to do with the WP 4 Joomla component but they helped out anyway.

Wordpress is a great solution for clients to who want a blog in their website and you don't want to get into the inner workings of the Joomla Back-end with them.

A must if you need a blog in your site.

Great right out of the box - easy to customize if needed. Majority of configuration can be done right from the Component "Config" cPanel in your J! back-end. Clean CSS. Perfect addition for retail, band or event based websites!

Customer Support = A+

Our agency has been playing with Tienda since the V 0.4.1 or so. It has come a long way and version 0.5.3 is the best yet. A great time to jump on board if your looking for a powerful alternative to VM and something like Magento is too over the top for your needs.

Pro's:
• Support is responsive and thorough. They really see your issue to resolution. They are even beating their posted times that they will respond to your issue.
• Simple and strong interface. Adding products (shipped or downloadable) is smooth and efficient.
• Integrates very will with multiple leading Template creators.
• CSS and PHP files are organized and well commented for easy "hacks" or modifications if needed.
• Easily integrate into their other great Dioscouri products.
• GUEST CHECKOUT OPTION included! Also, user history.

Con's:(kinda)
• Support subscriptions only and it will cost you $99 for the first month and $79 each additional month if you go with a 12 month subscription. Worth it if you are selling enough product. If you don't need support - even better.
• Currently only two payment processing plugins - Authorize.net (which is the best in our opinion and PayPal which is huge in the US). Only a con if you don't have access to these processors or are deep into another processor contract.
• Few step-by-step tutorials. User / Members are producing more and more "how-to"content for this young cart.

Give the free community version a shot and realize the paid version is waiting for you if you need more features.

This will easily be our go-to cart system from here on out and I know other template creators ar working with Dioscouri for better integrations (JoomlaBamboo already has a template based on Tienda)
