I used this to:

Disappointed

Functionality
easy to install
Ease of use
Surely a good tool if you are not using third-party component as JomSocial, easyblog or the like to be migrated.
My recommendation: Use the built-in joomla 2.5 for migration. There will be som errors, witch can be corrected using google search.
Value for money
Money out of the window for me
Functionality
I needed an easy tool to migrate all my 1.5 too 3.X and this did it!
Ease of use
Very easy!
Support
Quick! I had trouble with one of the websites and mailed them the error message. A couple of hours later they responded with an answer!
Documentation
Lots of docs!
Value for money
Great value!
I used this to: Migrate several websites from 1.5.26 to 3.4!
Functionality
A well written tool that does exactly what it says it does.
Ease of use
Has one drawback -- it uses FTP to move files which is inherently insecure. SFTP is available from most reputable ISPs works the same.
Support
Responded quickly to a query. Somebody is picking up the mail.
Documentation
RTFM and it works. The English version is a bit rough, but acceptable.
Value for money
Excellent value. It saved me hours. My time is valuable.
I used this to: Migrated a dangerously out of date (1.5) Joomla site in one evening. Highest recommendation!

Works Really Well

I used this to: Upgrading two Joomla 1.5.26 sites to Joomla 3.3+.

Used it Twice, Recommended.

Functionality
I've converted two Joomla sites from V1.5 to 3.x and both have been trouble-free.
Ease of use
Relatively intuitive, the error messages are very good to identify config errors. I had to figure out some things, maybe they are assumed.
Documentation
The documentation could be a bit more specific for a straightforward upgrade, but I figured things out which is part of the fun I guess.
Value for money
I don't recall what I paid, but I consider I got good value. My second conversion took me 71 minutes, I was quoted 3 hours by a pro.
I used this to: Content conversion / upgrade.
It is a very flexible package, and I used probably only a small part of what it is capable of - it seems that you could import just parts of a site not the whole site if you knew the ID reference numbers it uses. I'm really happy with it.

Amazing support
