Best Article Display Ever!

Best Article and Graphics display EVER!

I have been using it since 2011 and I had only pleasant surprises.

Make it running in seconds, and have all your articles displayed with their graphics in nice clean business list, portfolio, thumbnails, any way you want it!

Quick and easy to setup, but also great for half-developers and developers you can edit any parameter of the frontend look.

Works smooth like nothing else, I'm running it on a website that loads 100+ articles and graphics on front site. Thanks to All-Mode Pro, that happens in 2,5 seconds.

I dealt with many plugin/component/module developers, from many countries, and I really recommend RAXO.

Best support ever:

- How do you know if your RAXO plugin has been updated? - Because you already have it on your email, seconds after they developed it!

- Issues with payments, loyalty discounts, invoice correction, EU VAT Invoices... RAXO will fix any issues in matter of minutes.

Just bought 2 new products from RAXO, already love them!

Highly recommend this product!

Real product

When I look for a module or component for a website I look at the features, ease of use and impact to my customer.

Inevitably the best products have a cost associated but sometimes you buy a commercial module and find the support does not match the hype.

I have been using Joomla extensions for 4 years and have found the support team at Raxo are in my opinion one of the best.

Their forum details almost every issue you may encounter and if not, posting a question is a simple and frustration free process - with the solution generally offered within an hour or two.

This is my first review, I am very grateful to the team at Raxo and will continue to use your products - thank you!

Excellent news module

I really love the module. I like that it is very customizable (via admin console and the source code). Great support too. I sent support an email and they responded very quickly. I suggested that content can be added via tags and they said they will work on it. Looking forward to that feature. Great module overall!

A Content Display Module at its best

I am more than 3 years a happy Raxo customer. I have used this module at so many websites in so many different ways.

The team in Raxo is focused to produce a polished product and they are thoroughly planning each and every new feature in order to keep their top quality.

Briefly the module can be configured to work as a popular, newest, featured, most rated and many more different modules types, with so many further arrangements and settings, like categories and date filtering and so on.

All of the above settings can be done in the module's instinctive backend configuration panel.

However the real power of the module is the templating capability.

Raxo comes prepackaged with some templates, extra templates can be purchased separately, but it also supports custom templates which can be produced with ease by customizing the template php/html code and the css.

Of course the aforementioned knowledge at some level is required.

But for beginners, the ready-made templates can be proved enough and the support is always there to guide them to the right direction or to solve issues.

And the next good news is that Raxo team recently released a new K2 compatible version - listed also in JED.

A little work but worth it

While this module isn't for the fresh faced Joomla user, the end result and amazing support should certainly have everyone taking a serious look at this.

I'm not a CSS expert by any means but muddle my way through to have a few of the templates give my website a fresh and incredibly professional look.

The support is great! They took time to help me work out why one template wasn't working and pointed me directly to the problem (which happened to be in my Artisteer template).

Excellent and easy to use

Wow I have been looking for something that displays K2 items by tag for a long time and this just does it soooo easy straight out of the box. Very happy and well worth the money.

Keep up the good work.
