I had written an extensive review on this product but apparently it was too long. So I'll keep it short and to the point.
This is an expensive piece of software that is underdeveloped, makes updating virtuemart even more tedious, and requires additional software to work. Software that is not free. I was hoping for something to avoid the backend of Joomla and after using this for a week I went back to doing it the old way. It was simply much faster that way.
The only positive thing I can say about it is that it allows you to enter orders for customers that you may take over the phone. Virtuemart's backend doesn't allow that for some reason.
Until the author comes out with an update that actually speeds up the process of running a virtuemart store, I recommend saving your money and sticking with the old way.

Owner's reply
I do not agree with your opinion. The template have a lot functions that Virtuemart backend miss.
- Invoice generation and e-mail it with a click.
- Barcode integration
- Automatic reorder level
- Sells chart
- Best seller chart
- Orders and sales report, ordered for day/week/month
- Massive images export for manage in few minutes all products images!
- Create the products catalog in a click!
- Fully customizable
I think your review has been too hasty, and maybe you haven't understand the real potential of this template.
Many customers have really appreciated it, and we think to improve this solution in the future.
