I have installed this program on my art website and it's going well. I have installed it on Joomla 1.7.2 and as I work through the component I realise that it will be very useful for my customer bookings and info on courses, costs etc.
I had some questions and the support was good, even over weekend and considering time frame with overseas communications. It's quite a powerful program with lots of options to configure what works for your business. Thanks for the help and patience with me. Very courteous emails are always such a relief when asking for help.

Being new at Joomla i was a little confused during my first projects involving Joomla, but having a developer like Profinvent on your side is for sure a great advantage. Very good extension and a very professional team!
Been using this product for about a month now and overall its excellent. Only reasons for 4 rather than 5 stars are, a few minor bugettes that involve workarounds and no formal documentation. The developer responds very quickly to questions on the forum and is generally very helpful. If you want some course management software try this first. Keep up the good work.
I am using Course Manager (v1.5.5 rev 5) on my sail training website to enable customers to book and/or pay on-line. It performs very well and meets all my expectations. Installation was easy but understanding the system took a little time and experimentation (on a beta website).
Profinvent's forum is invaluable and my questions answered promptly.
I have been using Joomla for 2 years. I am not a programmer but can delve into and modify certain bits of code & language files to improve the visual effect. I spent some time to get the customer interface right before going live with this excellent component.

We've used this component for 6 months now and it's been excellent so far. We haven't used the paypal feature yet but everything else works just as expected. The company support and forums are ALWAYS helpfull and dedicated to solving your problems and feature requests.
We're not looking any further. This is it for us!

Thanks for this component. Able to update courses, sessions, users and all bookings very easily. No complicated extra code required for my clients to try and work out when filling out new course details and managing bookings.
Configurable by category, registered or non registered booking settings, email booking confirmation settings, even fancy little icon configuration for categories. The developer communicates so its good to see where the component is going. Thanks again
