I pretty much tried all of the free (and many paid) form extensions and this is the only one that's got it all together. Some of the other extensions either look good, but function precariously, or function well but look 1997.
This one looks great (and is easily re-styled/skinned)and functions brilliantly.
It's got everything you need: captcha, all common field types, file uploads, post-submission confirmation, submission db storage, email forwards, and a ton of other features.
AND it's completely free. Furthermore it does not force you to backlink unlike some of the other extensions here. Backlinking is completely optional, and can be toggled within admin options. So you won't get a massive, out of context ad at the bottom of your form.

The extension installed very smoothly - without a single glitch. Although I never read the manual, the extension is designed in such an intuitive way that all you need is common sense to guide yourself around its pages.
As for its functionality, it is very rich in features and even rivals some of the prominent job board out there. The only improvement I would make is dynamic, ajax-based field generation (rather than having Employer 1, Employer2 etc.).
Great job!

Superb extension that every Joomla owner should install. It lets you do one very basic permission-based rule that Joomla core doesn't - display content targeted only at non-registered users! This is great if you'd like to have calls to action and such, material you wouldn't want to display to your existing customers.
Oh just wanted to mention one more thing. The mod's homepage states the extension works with Joomla 1.5.3 - 1.5.7 ... well I got it working on my 1.5.8 without any fuss.

Owner's reply
Thanks for your message Marc. I've changed the wording on the MetaMod home page to state that it works on 1.5.3 and up.
I'm delighted that MetaMod helped your site. Targeting non-registered users is just one of hundreds of functions that MetaMod can use to customise which modules appear on which pages of your site.

I like the form builder. It is easy to use and rather versatile.
What I don't like is the copyright that comes with it. Unless you get the $25 ad-free license, you're stuck with an unsightly, unrelated advertisement at the bottom of your published form. I mean if the back-link said something like "powered by: Chronoforms", fine, fair game. Instead, it says "Joomla Professional Work", all 3 words linking back to chronoforms.com. Firstly, everyone's going to know what platform you're using off the bat (ie Joomla), second, it really is unsightly and conjures images of unrelated adSense advertising.
