The component is very easy to set up and use. Not without quirks, but the price is great for the overall level of execution.

Really like the automated confirmation and cancellation notices. The component gives a concise, sortable, and searchable list of events, and signup (once you enable bottom buttons) is very intuitive.

Front end event addition and admin is the killer feature...nobody else has it. Now your "publishers" can add events, without giving them the admin site access.

Suggestions for author:
1) Make button placement bottom by default. (Default "top" settings not intuitive to us Americans). Configuration panel in the back end needs to be easier to find.
2) Allow sending reminder emails to registrants before event, not just right when they sign up. For example, an email reminder the night before the event.
3) Module very much needs an option to exclude fully booked and past date events.
