Functionality
Exactly what is needed to sell digital products. The component is developing and new features appears.
Ease of use
It is pretty okay. We used RD-Subs before and this extension is its logical continuation, so the UI is clean, all settings are groped.
Support
It is surprisingly to meet a developer who is open for cooperation and has implemented various improvements. The support is just fantastic!
Documentation
There is nothing extra. Just that information which is needed. What was not yet clear or need clarification - I asked at the forum directly.
Value for money
E-commerce solutions cannot cost low price, for stable product it is worth to pay money and forget about possible issues.
I used this to: OchSubscriptions is used to sell extensions at our site. It's very important to have a stable solution like this. The component comes with flexible structure, various events to develop custom plugins, written code and is compatible with Joomla 4.
Functionality
If you are based in E.U. and you would like to sell B2B subscriptions, this extension is your absolute choice.
Ease of use
The extension has a lot of features. Given it's complexity is well structured.
Support
The support was outstanding. Ruud was there in every step, willing to provide solutions in a fast way.
Documentation
Unfortunately the documentation is quite poor. The extension has a lof of features which are not documented.
Value for money
Given the features, it provides, it worth the money...............................
I used this to: B2B subscriptions site..............................................
Owner's reply: Hi Sakis,
Thanks for your positive review! Was good to work together on your(Joomla 4) project with ochSubscriptions.
As you know ochSubscriptions started out as a fork of rd-subs. I did a complete rewrite of the code and also of the logic / security of the component to make it the best subscription component out there. Unfortunately, documentation was not available anymore for rd-subs as the original developer took that site offline. I decided to start over describing the basic functionality. More documentation will be added when people come to me with questions: in the meantime I share and provide as much as knowledge in interaction with the customer having questions.
So documentation is WIP but we are getting there! Thanks again for your review, means a lot to me!
Regards,
Ruud.
