CP is a good extension. Multilanguage support of J! core is low; I had to add that myself [JText::_()] and hacked the component.

Ease of use

Yep!

Value for money

Really ok. That lack of core multilanguage was annoying.

I used this to: I used it without any problems for a website selling travels to Asia.

Very handy component and excellent service

We're currently using Custom Properties to showcase our customers on our website. We are using Joomla 1.5 (I know), and we finally decided to migrate to 3.

We needed to tweak the component to our needs, which was "rather easy" done in the 1.5 version. However, this wasn't as easy done in the Joomla 3 version for a non-developer, so after spending a day or so trying to figure out how to tweak the component, I wrote to Andrea.

2 hours and 35 minutes. That's how long it took for Andrea to reply with the answer for my prayers. That is awesome!

Thanks Andrea!

Excellent extension

This extension makes all kinds of content display options possible and comes with a great search module too. Allows you to search by text and/or by filtering. I didn't set it up correctly initially and support was quick and helpful. Highly recommended extension.

Excellent support

I rarely write reviews but I had to leave a comment for Custom Properties. It is all I needed and even more. Works flawlessly so far, right out of the box; has a lot of options that makes indexing much easier. User-friendly and abundant in useful features. Thanks.

Fantastic

I have used this component since the start and having recently upgraded to j2.5 was concerned I might loose it but it is still here and better than ever, plus support is great. If you need tags and tags that really work then forget the others go for this.

PS If you use jreviews this tag system works a treat with it.

Fantastic and thanks

Nice
