Wow that tool is more need that we expected
I have to thank the developers to that great work. I have kicked of al other tools from my several Joomla pages and use only joomwatch.
This tool helps us really in providing support to our costumer. We can see in real-time how is online and where the are, from the known registered. But also, how uses witch browser witch pages get be read the most and has to be maybe optimised. We can give support on the phone then we know where they are, then we can just look it up.
Great Thanks

This component/module/plugin installs and operates without issue. The menu system, as well as module parameters are unusually configured, however once you understand how to configure it, it provides a wealth of information about your site visitors' activity.
A definite must have component. Thank you!

I never knew there is a tool as this to watch live while people accessing your website; what they browse and from where they accessed your site ect.
But one day while I was working on my Joomla site, I just thought that it would be handy if you have a tool as above and decided to search.
I just couldn’t believe my eyes what I saw. I just downloaded JoomlaWatch and installed it.
Guys, I can bet none of you will be disappointed and you will surely donate toward this project.
One of the top-class extensions I found here.
Just a little doubt;
I am not sure how an extension becomes an Editor’s pack or Popular one in the site..!
However, my doubt is: how-come “JoomlaWatch” is not an “Editor’s pack or Popular one”
Is there anything better than “JoomlaWatch” for checking the stats?
I would give 10 / 10, but I was allowed only 5/5.
Excellent work guys. You surely deserve a donation..!

I am amazed by this component+module. What else to say, it took my breath away! ;o)

I love this extension! Kudos to the developer for making such a great product. I am a start-up web developer and without great tools like this, I wouldn't be able to make it. This is the first review I've made. I was just looking over some stats on a client's web site and just had to take a minute to publicly thank the developer for such a great and useful product.
IMHO this is a mandatory install for Joomla! webmasters.
Easy to install, excellent documentation.
You can set your goals (visiting certain page, visitors from certain link etc.)
You can control flow on your web....
There were other reviews with better description, all what I can say is: Just download and install. You will not be disappointed!
One advice: Before you will use spam protection, go and check all protected words. I was kicked out of my own web, because I used word 'online' ;-) (quite hard to avoid if your web is aimed on people starting online business).
After I deleted -online from spamlist, all was working perfectly.
Donated already and keep good work developers!

Thank you, I'm glad that you are satisfied. You are right, there was a word "-online", I've removed it to avoid such situations. There are also new translations available: czech, danish, lithuanian and polish.
I like joomlawatch but it seems to have two major flaws. First, it completely misidentifies country locations. For example, I am now in Italy but according to joomlawatch I am in Spain. And I have a friend visiting my site in Germany but according to joomlawatch she is in the U.S. So I cannot trust it at all when looking at visitor countries. Second, I can't seem to set the number of visible visitors on the backend. For example now I set it to 50 but I can only see some 15 or so.
This is a very, very useful script. I don't know, how much time I wasted in the last years, to kick spammers off. With JoomlaWatch this is no problem, one klick and the evil spammer stands in front of a closed door.
helped me a lot finding out several issues on my page and the best is, you can track down if your page strategies are good or not (guess having logical click paths).
8 euros doesn't sound like much to have the ads removed, but its still annoying.
A nice extension, but I'll save 5 stars for developers who really are sharing their work.

Hello "pacificwalter", ok, it's your opinion, so I'm respecting it. But you know, it's hard to have everyday programming job, and then after you are tired of all the work duties, to reply the support emails and to fix bugs, develop the new requested features - everything during remaining spare time and weekends. And yes, share it with the community without anything in return. This concept is nice, but it won't pay your web hosting expenses or won't buy you a coffee. These ads are some compromise, I'm not making millions out of it. It's intention is more like to cover the "costs". The code is GNU/GPL, so you can still remove the ads by yourself. Thank you for your understanding, and I'm glad that most people are fine with this model.
I want to release the new stable version with all the new features and translations. I hope it will be very soon :)
