Great product and good support



Posted on 04 June 2012
I regard this as a good product. I have been using it for a while now. The installation is a doddle. Especially the new version with its extra check and configuration facilities are making life very easy.

Just install run the auto pilot and away you go!!!

Fantastic Extension, Amazing Support!!



Posted on 23 May 2012
After trying every free "Social" extension for Joomla, I finally decided to spend some money on JFBConnect. I've been using it now for over 6-months and all I can say is "WOW"! This extension is amazing...it's facebook integration is seamless, it's support for other social buttons (Twitter, Google+, etc) is great and the documentation is excellent. It even allows you to create a facebook application using Joomla!



Everything works so well, and Alex (the Developer) has built in plenty of features to make it easy for anyone to setup and use. And if you need support, Alex and his team are fast, helpful and very professional. This truly is one of the best extensions I've ever used, absolutely worth the subscription price!

Great component and support

Hello. This is maybe the 3rd time I give a review for a Joomla Component and JFBConnect is really a great component. Not only it does what it is supposed to, but the support is just among the very best I have ever seen. They reply in minutes and always right on target. I don't spend much time on it so I can concentrate on other issues on my site. Thanks a lot Source Coast!

Excellent value

JFBConnect does just about everything that you need for Facebook integration into your website. I used it to allow users to login to my website with their Facebook accounts, automatically connecting them to their user accounts in Community Builder. JFBConnect also makes it easy to add "Like" and "Send" buttons to each page, show recommended pages from other FB users, subscribe visitors to your own FB page, and much more.



The amazing thing about JFBConnect is its flexibility. You can add its functionality via plugins, modules, and tags.



The documentation is good, but the online technical support (via discussion forum) is excellent. You will get immediate responses from a skilled technician to get all of your questions answered. That alone is worth the price of the product. This product is somewhat complicated to install (because of everything that it can do), but it is well documented and supported. A+ product!

Best Component Available - World Class Service



Posted on 19 May 2012
In our website we tried every single social option available for Joomla before settling with JFB Connect. It was the obvious choice since it was the only one that met all our requirements: It was easy to install, provided support and caused no problems whatsoever. Except for a couple of other less complex components, JFB Connect worked from day one providing exactly what it promised and we wanted. Support is amazing and totally worth every cent we spent in this app (their price is totally fair). Not saying that you are not gonna have any issues (there so many possible Joomla settings that anything is possible) but I'm sure support will get your component going as quick as humanely possibly. If you're unsure about this, please just visit their forums and check some threads. No recriminations, no blaming you or other software and, apparently, no limits. This is, seriously, the first time I see support from any company that takes their time to help you out with conflicting programs sold or created by someone else. They really want to see their stuff working for everybody no matter the environment.

Also, be aware that some of the other extensions we tried can break your site (and by break I mean destroy it). I cannot express enough how well developed and supported JFB Connect is. It is extension heaven for those who hate rebuilding their sites after bad coding sets their Joomlas on fire.

Excellent Extension, Great Support

This is a must have extension for any website looking to grow and connect with social media. The functionality is great, the documentation is very complete and their support is second-to-none.



There's a lot that can happen when trying to integrate with Facebook and issues are bound to arise; the good news is that SourceCoast will help you out quickly, even on the weekends!



I highly recommend this extension and this company.

Great extension, and AMAZING support!

The extension is well worth the money, has a relatively low learning curve, walks you though most everything you need to now, and when you do get stuck, the support from the devs is outstanding.

Excellent

Hi all,

I have to spend some good words for this fantastic component. A special thanks to Alex's team for their excellent support!!!

Awe inspiring components that are a breeze to use...



Posted on 12 April 2012
Absolutely outstanding modules that give my website (artmyprints.com) instant, and I do mean INSTANT, credibility and ease of use. I thought that it would be a little overwhelming at first but quickly realized that I was already addicted to it! Such a great set of tools to play around with on your site. Kudos Ladies and Gentlemen. Kudos!
