Excellent survey extension for any need

I had been looking around through several extensions an no one has demonstrated such a versatility as this one. Is robust enough to handle complex surveys and at the same time can be delicate, simple and elegant to be use in the R.S.V.P. section of a wedding website. But what really make the extension special is the fast and accurate support that you receive from the developer team (Specially Maverick). Different to some other developers their interest is not to get as much money from you as possible but to help you accomplish exactly what you want with their products so you are never dissapointed with the results.

Super Product

Like many others, this is my first rating (I think). This product is SOOOO good that I had to speak up. I've been through several other polling products, including some paid, and they all had their shortcomings. This one is absolutely awesome!

Good support

This extension makes a good job, I had an issue with private survey and I got a first class support.

Thank you Maverick

Online Surveys this is great

I have been using other on line survey tools and wanted a solution to bring in house and Community Surveys fits that bill. Support is excellent and the quality of the reporting is superb. It provides a high level of confidence in the delivery of professional surveys to professional consultees. I can't recommend this product highly enough

Great Customer Service!

After using Joomla for over 7 years and ashamed to say I've never submitted a review. I had to for these guys. This survey component is a real gem, great value for the price and the speedy replies to forum questions makes the whole experience a breeze. With admiration, you you!

Great Extension and Support

I am not the most technical guy, but I know a little. I found the extension easy to use and almost exactly what I was looking for.

The support I received made the extension everything that I was looking for. I asked these guys a bunch of questions and they responded with answers and solutions to my technical questions quickly. I look forward to seeing how I can use their other extensions.

Another Quality CoreJoomla Product

Wayne Miller (2).
Posted on 13 July 2013

I have only built one website in my entire life. I built it using Joomla BECAUSE of one of CoreJoomla's other products (Community Polls.)

Because I think so highly of the Community Polls extension, I added Community Surveys to my site.

Please know that this extension is more complex than some other extensions simply because of the features it offers. Additionally, there are many more extensions that are even more complex and harder to install.

Finally, the customer service is OUTSTANDING. Maverick is very responsive, respectful, and, most importantly, helpful.

Great component

I am amazed by how advanced, yet easy to use, this component is. Great support as well.

Great extension, fast support

Great extension, right out of the box. I've seen in here it's not for the newbie, maybe, but it's still quite intuitive. Support is great and fast. That's great! So if you looking for survey system quite advanced, ready to work out of the box, it's what you looking for!

Not an extension for a Newbee

John Nielsen (1).
Posted on 07 April 2013

Unfortunately I allready have payed........

For a Newbee into Joomla - this Extension is too difficult to manage.

The service/support is Okay - but my English isn´t the Best :-)

Keep it simple - and make a Manual, which is understable for a Foreinger as me, who maybe not is so technical.

Owner's reply: Every extension has its own drawbacks, here power and outstanding features comes with little time you spent in understanding it. That's why we prepared complete documentation for you to get start with including a video tutorial. Most people find it really easy to do than it looks after playing with it for five minutes. Unfortunately you find it not the peace of cake for you. Please feel free to contact me on forum or email, I will help you setting up the complete software for you.
