Functionality
Has most of the social media share buttons.
Buttons set to show, styling, etc is customizable.
Ease of use
Just download & enable the plugin from: System > Plugins
Add relevant button names to "Service Buttons HTML code": eg. a2a_button_whatsapp.
I used this to: To share links from our website to various social media platforms.

A very easy to use plugin

Very easy to add share buttons on a website. By default you add them in the article, there are instructions on how to add floating buttons.
Ease of use
Very easy to use. If you have even basic experience in Joomla, you just install it, 5-10 minutes to configure it and you are done!
Support
I had a question to ask and received an answer the same day, I think that this is more than satisfactory.
Documentation
Could be a bit better, maybe explain a few things in more detail. But remember that it is a very easy to use extension.
I used this to: I used AddThis, as this is closing at the end of the month I made my research and decided to go with AddToAny as my replacement. I used it on my website to check it and I will also use it on my clients' websites. For anyone who has to replace AddThis, highly recommended.

Excellent Extension for Share Buttons



Posted on 20 April 2023
Functionality
Share buttons appear and do the job once AddToAny is enabled. You can configure follow buttons too. It really nails all the socials.
Ease of use
It's built like it belongs in Joomla. The default configuration is superb. Extendibility is excellent (love the templates).
Support
AddToAny has a contact form for support and they actually responded to my feedback long ago!
Documentation
Walkthrough examples on the AddToAny site. I advise following the Drupal docs.
I used this to: Sharing and connecting! Two of our sites were using another service that is shutting down soon (AddThis) but now we have AddToAny running on our entire network. We are much better for it! One special use is an AddToAny template (see docs) for contacting us on Telegram & WhatsApp.

Really good extension



Posted on 13 March 2022
Functionality
After trying some other extensions for social sharing, I ended up searching because this is by far the best.
Ease of use
Very easy, available in module and plugin, good looking (very important) and very fast!!!
Support
I didn't need any support but there is a contact form for any issue which I prefer than forums.
Documentation
There is a nice documentation for customizing it, but I didn't need it.
I used this to: I use this to add social sharing to some specific articles. But since this is so fast, I will add it to maybe all the articles.

Excellent, Great, Awesome!

Excellent Social Share buttons



Posted on 30 March 2017
Functionality
This free extension provides share buttons for a whole range of Social Media.
Ease of use
It took me 2 minutes to install and configure it.
I used this to: Provide share buttons for users to share content on Facebook and other social media and for myself to share articles on my Facebook page. Surprisingly, this was the only free extension I found that allowed me to display the buttons only within articles and not on other pages.

Simple and super easy

I love how easy this plugin is set up and how much you can customise it. Thank you, this is so well done!!!!
Ease of use
Super easy
Documentation
Did not even need documentation

Very good



Posted on 11 May 2016
Functionality
It is an easy, to-the-point extension. Did what I needed. Adding share buttons into articles and giving me an option to exclude categories
Ease of use
Very easy
Documentation
No documentation from developer,however AddToAny is a seperate service integrated by the developer and they offer good docs.(use drupal's)
I used this to: For articles at a Region's website.

Simple and effective



Posted on 27 April 2016
Functionality
So far, at least, this does exactly what I wanted - "share this" buttons for social media at the bottom of every article.
Ease of use
10 minutes from finding the plugin via Google to enabling and customizing the buttons on our site. Very nice!
I used this to: Adding "share this" buttons to articles.

Nice way to add share icons



Posted on 21 March 2015
Functionality
Addtoany does what it's supposed to. I tried article-tool, fastsocialshare and sharethis. None were as flexible or did what they said.
Ease of use
Reasonably easy to use. Use the Addtoany website to custom create the button code and paste it into the plugin backend. Edit addtoany.css.
Documentation
Decent. I'd like more examples on their website though.
I used this to: I use this for adding buttons to my articles. The plugin overrides some CSS though so you may go nuts trying to find it. If you want small icons edit line 105 of addtoany.php. Change a2a_kit_size_32 addtoany_list" to a2a_kit_default. Not sure why they're overriding.
