The latest site is a subscription site combining Docman, Akeeba Subscriptions and Metamod. With this combination I can present a different subscription module with Metamod to charge different subscriptions for different countries without subscribers knowing their is a difference and automatically restrict access to some documents (via subscription groups) for subscribers in countries where we don't have publishing rights.
Can't thank the publishers enough.

It is probably the most basic Real Estate extension I have seen yet. That is not a bad thing and I'm sure there is a market for a simple listing extension. Or there would be if it worked. As simple as the extension is, the simple act of trying to add a property sends you to a blank white screen. The extension seems to have been listed prematurely or the download is incomplete. Even the publishers own demo site is not working.

Having said that, the free "Community" version already has a number of advanced features that for other longer established ecommerce extensions are either not available or are commercial addons. These include related products, stock control on unlimited attribute combinations and much more. In my experience the software is also very stable and development is active.
Yes, if you want support you have to pay and quite rightly. Having said that the forum is active and helpful and the code is well written and easy to follow.
This is an extremely feature rich product for a free extension and not suitable for someone who wants a shop in a box without some serious configuration. On the other hand if you are prepared to take the time to learn the product you can have a very powerful ecommerce site. 4 stars because it is still a beta release and by definition is not perfect (yet).

As other users have pointed out however the actual update functions don't work. The SQL created when you try to update is wrong (at least for MySQL 5 and above (it may be a hangover from earlier versions). 2 Stars for now but if the developers deliver all of the advertised features it would get a 5.

So often an extension is almost right if it only had one more parameter to suit the specific need - this one has more than you need but you can pretty much ignore the ones you don't want. I had this up an running in minutes.

If developers are going to the trouble of creating an extension they should take an extra hour and create some basic documentation so we can use them.
