DO NOT USE with PostgreSQL



Posted on 26 May 2020
Functionality
seems good, but makes troubles using with PostgreSQL-Database. no easy way to find the bug
Ease of use
seems good to use, but makes trouble if used with postgres. maybe a small change would help many users
I used this to: a single site with joomlaplates, which should be used with this extension

A flexible portfolio module and much more



Posted on 27 May 2019
Functionality
A function that works great, lots of options, especially it is a free extension
Ease of use
Easy to use, besides you can refer to the documentation, most easy to control with anyone
Support
Documentation
I used this to: Most of my portfolio sites use this module, the load more feature also worked very smoothly

Lot of functionality



Posted on 08 May 2019
Functionality
It has many modes of display, making it the most flexible module for all sorts of content (slideshows, news ticker, photostrips, articles..)
Ease of use
In many cases it is self-explanatory. It is quite easy to use but do read the documentation. The module is responsive which is a great plus.
Documentation
Good enough to get you started and figure out what you can do with such an incredibly flexible module.
I used this to: Showing full articles sliding from one to another, within the body of a main article. Tried some other options but nothing worked satisfactorily, so easily and out-of-the-box as this one. It's a very useful module, due to its many modes, and I use it often elsewhere in a website.

Best free showcase module for Joomla



Posted on 10 August 2018
Functionality
everything i need (grids, carousel)
Ease of use
very easy to use
Support
didn't need it
Documentation
good documentation
I used this to: showcase my services

A very useful tool.



Posted on 28 February 2018
Functionality
Many choices. Very useful to use Joomla articles. It needs a small fix for not public articles and an option for defining the title heading.
Ease of use
Easy enough.
Support
Documentation
I always use the demo to decide which layout fits me better.
I used this to: I use this for portfolios and hint content in the homepage.

Magnificent Component!



Posted on 10 August 2017
Functionality
I wonder how could be FREE a component like this! with various styles like headline,list,mosaic & ....it can show every format you need!
Ease of use
Just publish it! you can also set rules like categories & sort
Support
Documentation
Good enough
I used this to: A commercial site

Awesome



Posted on 11 May 2016
Functionality
does it very well, modern look
Ease of use
very easy to use, can override layouts
Documentation
I think you get more if you pay for it, but I was able to modify it to my needs

Not Easy to Setup i'm afraid



Posted on 12 March 2016
Functionality
I can't get it to work in Joomla 3.4 - I have created a module position in Gantry, created an instance of it and made sure it is published.
Ease of use
I'm totally stuck with it after following the instructions. I cannot load an article even though I have articles available and published.
Support
Although it is a free version, there does not appear to be any free support available, not everybody is profit making from websites.
Documentation
The documentation is straight forward but it does not have any troubleshooting section - maybe possibly because it should not be needed.
I used this to: I can't use it at all - it's a nice idea though but the support, unless you pay even to access the forums (although I suspect the contributors don't get paid), is non existent.

Use it on almost every one of my websites



Posted on 04 February 2016
Functionality
Tons of options and layouts so you can accomplish almost anything. This is definitely not a "simple" module, by any means.
Ease of use
I think it's easy because I've been using it so long and so often. I can see how some might not think it's easy from the start.
Support
GREAT support. I use Rockettheme for my templates, which might be why I love RokSprocket so much. The support is awesome.
Documentation
Great documentation, active forum
I used this to: Almost every site I create. Gives you a way to make boring content look good.

Excellent except for touch-swipe



Posted on 11 September 2015
Functionality
Better if the touch-swipe function is afforded for mobile phones.
Ease of use
simple and light
Support
Documentation
I used this to: Roksprocket is nearly the best module i could find for articles slideshow. It is simple to set and does not make site slow. However, the navigation and pagination buttons are not very sensitive on touch screen equipments and touch-swipe function should also be enabled.
