Posted on 16 June 2016
Functionality
100% function in both desktop and mobile platforms in J3.5.1 (after developer support per below).
Ease of use
SOOO much power in this... LOTS of customizable configurations. Takes a while to discover all you can do, but the well-written docs help.
Support
200% The dev. was FAST to respond to email support. Ext. does not work in templates using Bootstrap 3, so the dev made it work for me.
Documentation
On-line docs are detailed and well-written, covering nearly all features.
Value for money
Got my $74 US worth and then a whole lot more. Way more powerful than I needed, but needed the features only this ext. had.
I used this to: Used as a crude, e-store order sys that recvs orders via email in a multi-hub distribution "network." Each hub has it's own email for fulfillment and thus a contact entry in the ext. At this time the system uses just one modal contact form, but can be configed for separate forms.
