I've been contemplating adding a Forum to my site for some time. I was driven to check out Agora largely due to the positive Reviews it was getting.

Installation was to all intents and purposes trouble free and once I'd found my way around the well designed and clear Administrator, which also has its own Joomla Admin Menubar Button Plugin, so one can get straight into the Agora Administrator; I was ‘on the road’.

I was able to quickly set up several Forums and assign users suitable access levels. There's a Sync-ing feature too which tidies Users as per the Joomla User list, so any old, orphaned or disused accounts can quickly be removed.

And when I needed support, the Agora Support Team answered my Forum posts typically within 10 or 15 minutes, with clear unambiguous answers. The Agora Documentation Wiki is amongst the best I've seen and the editor of the Wiki was quick to add my suggestions.

I’m new to Forums, but I’d suggest if you are looking for a Forum Component that won't suck your brains out, it has to be Agora. 10/10. Donation coming very soon Agora!
