I used this to: After spending days, wasting time, and receiving countless errors from the standard Joomla update procedure, i tried MigratemePlus. It does exactly what it claims and solved my transition from 2.5 to 3.x in minutes. Add fast and perfect support from Barnaby and you have it all.

Awesome extension



Posted on 22 October 2014
I promised Daniel a hi-5 for his work,so here we go!



Brilliant extension, very easy to set up, no coding or digging in files needed at all.



Daniel's support is pretty quick, even for the free version.
Much more than I expected. Hotspots Pro (4.0.6) and Daniels support is outstanding and highly professional in every way. Backend and frontend of the component are structured logically and are easy to use, well designed, responsive, reliable and fast. Take this if you are looking for a serious and professional mapping tool with a lot of useful features like route planning, traffic, street view, weather and much more.
Great component which is exactly what fulfills these promises. In my case misused for a German site with meeting places for dog lovers. Keep it up and I look forward to the new version

Perfect support. The developer speaks german very well. Excellent!
The component is perfect... it works as it supposed to be... Also the support team is great... they answer fast and they surelly give the solution to any problem might have... Thanks a lot for this excellent component...
Unbelievably robust/feature rich mapping component! Multiple maps, multiple categories on the same map, enter an address, coordinates or simply drag the icon to the map and the other details are added for you!



I had a JS conflict with my template provider and Daniel not only did the problem solving quickly on the forum but also took the time to log into my site to assist with it's correction.
