Excellent calendar functions in multiple languages



Posted on 02 April 2024
Functionality
It's incredibly easy to create a calendar of events, and has been localized into multiple languages, so perfect for complex sites.
Ease of use
Anyone familiar with creating Joomla articles can quickly build events and select from a large variety of ways to display them.
Support
Opening a support ticket means super-quick response and fast resolution - each support ticket is used to improve the extension/documentation
Documentation
Vast library of help articles to install/build/customize the extension (all well-written and updated for latest Joomla versions.
Value for money
Hands down, one of the best Joomla extensions available. Well worth the price for the professional appearance on your site.
I used this to: Performance calendar for a summer opera company operating in two languages. All performance details are cleanly displayed. The extension easily handles multi-language sites with well-designed modules, and makes me look like a far more sophisticated web designer than I really am!

Easy to use and great support



Posted on 09 November 2022
Functionality
JCalPro has everything we need in a calendar, including maps that lead the way to an event location. We haven't scratched the surface yet.
Ease of use
The component is easy to use out of the box, and its more advanced features just take a little experience to figure out.
Support
Joomlashack is a well-managed company, and support is fast, polite and helpful.
Documentation
Documentation is well-written and thorough. It includes links to about 70 different general topics.
Value for money
Joomlashack's all-extension package is the best deal, with extensions that cover a lot of ground. The standalone price also a good value.
I used this to: Schedules for associations, such as homeowners associations and groups of lawyers.

Looks great, shows off events in a fashionable way. Design is modern, not tired design. Everyone wants looks and function.
Ease of use
Easy enough to use. I was so frustrated with a competitor, I had sworn I was leaving it and going with the next easy program. I'm so glad!
Support
Have a problem? Send an email & get an answer by the next day. Not a silly forum where any Jack or Jane responds with bad advice.
Documentation
So little documentation, it's simple to use, but check it out anyway. That's what I like all the Joomlashack extensions. Easy to use.
Value for money
A little pricey, but wait for a sale and buy the Everything Club membership. These are good guys who will help as much as you need them.
I used this to: Several small town government websites that don't have a complicated website, and aren't a big metropolis like a major city. Easy for a client to use and understand. I do the mods and they do the entry. Works for both of us.

Everything appeared to work until we discovered the software is not compatible with the Helix framework or bootstrap 4.
Ease of use
Looked great until we hit Helix / Bootstrap 4 issue. Was refused refund
Support
Was ok .... in a different timezone to me so most answers were overnight.
Documentation
Value for money
in my case, terrible as the software did not work! They said it worked toth Joomla 3.* but NOT if your template is based on Helix (bootstrap
I used this to: a community Website. It looked very promising but its back to JEvents now I guess
Owner's reply: This a disappointing situation. The software works great, but there was a theme conflict that neither us, nor the theme developer could resolve despite a TON of effort. We put more effort into helping this user than other that I can remember. But there was a conflict and the customer didn't like the workaround we offered.
