AceSearch Pro
★★★★★
Excellent! Couldn't be happier.

AceSearch Pro
I started with the basic version and upgraded to the pro version to get the filters. Easy to install and use. Worked exactly as advertised.

Needs Work

Podcast Suite
The product is not intuitive and lacks documentation. While it is a free download, you must purchase a membership to access the documentation, forum or get support. It might be a great component, but I was not able to get it to work without the documentation.

I'm sorry to hear you are having trouble getting it to work, and I understand your frustration about having to pay to access the documentation. That is how we have chosen to make some money to help offset the cost of ongoing development for a component that we provide for free.

Tag Meta

Tag Meta
Tag Meta really helped me close the gap in my SEO. It was easy to install and use. When I had a question, their support was there to help right away.

I couldn't be happier with the product.
CK Forms
★★★★
Great start, but no support?

CK Forms
First I would say, great work! It was an easy install and it did exactly what it says it will do. The product needs some minor improvements, but overall there is nothing that would stop me from using it.

There are two reasons I did not give it 5 stars. First, there is no way to edit the data once it is in the database. I wanted to check if there was a solution for this...which brings me to the second reason...No support. The support forum is offline and I have not received a reply to the message I posted a few days ago using the contact form.

Good Start But Not Ready...

Sitemap Generator
The idea is good, but it lacks documentation and configuration options. Since the output is in XML format, it would make a better component than module. All of the links it displayed on my site were to localhost, not my domain, so I moved on to other solutions.
PDF Preprocessor
★★★★★
Worked Great

I had a small problem after install, but they responded to my support request in less than an hour. Great service and a great product.

PERFECT!

Ban IP Address/Range for 1.5
It does exactly what is says, exactly the way you need it. Fast and easy to install and configure. MUCH easier than messing around with the .htaccess file!

Overkill and Not Intuitive
byrholzler, April 7, 2010
aiContactSafe
First and foremost the component was not intuitive and I found it overly complicated.

Second, while testing, I discovered that the form I was developing was automatically placed on every page of the website! Wow was I surprised by that.

Third, when I could not remove the form quickly from the live pages, I uninstalled the component and CRASHED THE ENTIRE SITE (the reason i rated it so low).

It looks like a great product, but it was just too much work to get a simple contact form with a couple of extra fields.
Owner's reply

Considering all the things the extension is doing of course is not that simple to use, although, as you could see on the other reviews is not that complicated.

The form is displayed on all the pages if the module is installed. It IS NOT installed by default, so you installed it from the control panel of the component. Maybe you should read the instructions before pressing buttons that you don't understand what they do.

The problem on removal is also generated by you activating the module and not remove it after you remove the component.

A simple question on the support forum would had fixed both this problem in less then 30 seconds. You chose to post this review instead. Thank you. :(

Place Here module
★★★★★
Great for front-end editing

Place Here module
Excellent Module. This helped me overcome one of Joomla's annoying limitations. In order to edit modules you normally would need to be in the back end of the website. Now you can put article content into a module AND make it editable from the front end of the website.

You can't edit all modules, just those that use article content.
Updatz
★★★★
A Must Have for Joomla Admin's
byrholzler, June 9, 2009
If you manage multiple Joomla! sites, this is a must have extension.

The only two reasons I did not rate it "excellent."
1) It requires you to log in to your master control site to check the status of your installations.

2) It does not automatically detect the latest version of Joomla! You must manually update the latest version # in the mater control site.

Given the technology it uses, these should be easy to fix in the next version.

Thanks for the great work!
SC Meta
★★★★★
Exactly what I needed...
byrholzler, March 5, 2009
This was exactly what I was looking for. An extension that allows me to manage the meta description and keywords for Section and Category pages.

One suggestion for the next version, make the fields a text block and increase the maximum character count.
