Universal AJAX Live Search
My second module from these guys and I can only add to my review of the first: this is a great piece of work and on top of that excellent support. Due to a complex (Rockettheme) template it did not work right after install, but 20 minutes(!!!) later it did through excellent follow-up on my support ticket.

More than worth the money!

Accordion Menu for RedShop
This is a must-have for any webshop using Redshop and needing to have a versatile menu. This module attaches itself immediately to the Redshop Categories and installing an implementing it is a breeze.

What really impressed me was the level of support for a task I was not equipped to handle myself. I wanted a specific font for the menu, as the rest of the site uses that. I found the font myself but lacked the skills to implement it. After posting my question on their website, it took 3 hours for the developers (Thank you, Daniel!) to a. respond, b.ask for more info, and c. implement and test it on my website.

That is awesome customer service and not seen everywhere!

redSHOP
RedShop is much much more than a shopping cart, and maybe a background in financial software and logistics makes me adverse to the term. For me, Redshop is a full blown e-commerce solution (with a e-CRM one on the way, if I'm not mistaken!) which fulfills on the promises of letting you setup a online commercial presence and start generating money.

My customer is starting it's first webshop in a region where she will be the first to do so in a major way, with a very recognizable web-presence and therefore we decided to make use of the Rockettheme Mercando and Redshop combination. We have not regretted it and are very close to opening day.

Yes, there are still some issues to iron out, but overall the app is becoming more stable and a definitive plus is the way that the support team is not only able to help you, but to actually suprise you by sending a mail stating: We have changed this for you, please see if it works!

Worth every penny you spend and has raised the bar for other apps out there, including VM!

Simple Mooticker
Works as advertised right out of the box. I've given up on trying to have a website or module work flawlessly under all/any browsers (clearly not something a developer can accommodate for), so for me, it does the job, while taking into consideration that something might not behave as expected in IE6(?) or Chrome.
Good work!

Update Manager for Joomla!
Did what it is supposed to do right out of the box!

Beware though, when using the "Adminpriase" admin template, as it gave me a consistent blank page after uploading the update-file. Changing the template solved that, so it's not a JUpdate error, but a template one!

5 out of 5!

swMenuFree
I had this extension for some time and, to be honest, did not exactly know how to rightlyu use it. Untill the moment came that I needed a menumodule in a website with an "exciting" colorscheme... SWmenuFree did the job in one go, impressing me greatly!

The missing fifth star is because of the impression that is created when submitting a "Module Name". To me it would mean that I can use the settings of one designed menu to use for another one and by changing the Module name field are able to create a second instance.. That doesn't seem to work, however. If that is a complete assumption on my part, then consider this a 5 star review!
Owner's reply

swMenuFree only supports one menu module. For multiple menu modules and more menu systems and features you need swMenuPro.

Phoca Guestbook
One of the reviews alerted me to the right path for setting configuration parameters, otherwise I would not have been that happy with this Mod. The way it stands now, however, is that because of the way you can configure this, I was able to show this exactly as I wanted, in a flash!

Kudoos to Jan, great Extension!!

Very good module which out of the box, and after a flawless install, did right away what it's supposed to do (in my case show an animated flash logo in a Logo position).

However, just like the previous poster, there is a problem with the Flash not looping but only running once in IE8 and probably Safari as well (not verified though!) IE7 runs fine.

Would appreciate either a developped solution or a "How to solve" instead of the somewhat "figure it out" solution the previous poster got.

That is the only thing which prevented the 5th star.
