A good solution for us

Posted on 02 February 2024

Functionality

Most of the functions we wanted was already available.
Over the years TJ implemented some of our ideas, and we are thankful for that.

Ease of use

Generally easy straight out the box.
We struggle a bit with customizing the certificates, but we might be at fault.

Support

As long as you are registered you'll get good response from the team.

Documentation

Value for money

The pricing seems fair to us, and our client is quite happy too.

I used this to: We have about 2,000 internal students. We explain processes to ensure that al personnel know how all core functions in our operation work.

Worth the money

Posted on 22 January 2023

Functionality

Has everything my clients needed to integrate their online and offline training programs.

Ease of use

There's a learning curve, which is normal with a component of this size with the number of features. Nothing out of the ordinary.

Support

Excellent. I've worked with Techjoomla for years and they've always come through, even addressing issues created by other components.

Documentation

Thorough. Plan to sit for a while to read it, but worth the time to do it.

Value for money

There's a refund guarantee that I know they honor, but we didn't need it.

I used this to: International non-profit educational and credentialing association moving their paper office and educational program delivery and grading processes to online.

the most complete and customizable

Posted on 27 January 2022

Functionality

They worked with me to ensure functionality and were easy to work with.

Ease of use

Both easy to work with and then then they helped me make SHIKA easy to use.

Support

I appreciate the SHIKA or JOOMLATECH people very much as they furthered developed their extension to make it more usable for me and my used!

Documentation

I loved that they created a tutorial for me to use! We will continue to work together to gain documentation for my newly developed part of S

A definitive solution

Posted on 14 January 2022

Functionality

It has all the features that any LMS project could need. You probably won't use half of it.

Ease of use

Once you have learned how the menus work, it will be very easy to find each functionality. But first you will have to learn.

Support

The best part of everything.They answer any questions, and are on the lookout for any problems. That gives a lot of confidence when buyingit

Documentation

Quite complete with images. There are also tutorials on how to use it. Although if you experiment a little you will learn without problem.

Value for money

The power of the plugin is far above its cost. Not to mention the support they provide and the updates.

I used this to: To create an online education platform with physiotherapy courses.

Exactly what my client needed

Mary N (25).
Posted on 07 January 2022

Functionality

My client had been looking for features included in this extension for years. We have tried several other options and bridges without succes

Ease of use

It is very easy to understand once you go through creating your first course. I found it very intuitive.

Support

The support has been above and beyond. Support has been quick to respond and willing to help including offering video tutorials.

Documentation

The documentation has been clear, easy to understand and precise. Once I got started I really didn't need to refer to it.

Value for money

When extensions perform as expected the value is priceless. Although initially the price seemed a little high, it will pay for itself.

I used this to: My client who offers online courses. We have used other solutions and bridges and have struggled to accomplish what was needed in the past.

Meilleur système de cours en ligne pour les gros projets

DAMIEN (1).
Posted on 04 May 2021

Functionality

Beaucoup de fonctions, mais pas si facile à configurer si vous êtes un "débutant Joomla". Mais le support est là pour vous aider.

Ease of use

Globalement correct, seul l'ACL (droits des utilisateurs) présentait quelques bogues. L'éditeur de cours mérite d'être amélioré.

Support

Très utile et ouvert à l'aide extérieure (pour les traductions).

Documentation

Extension bien documentée , à partir du moment où on comprend l'anglais.
Les différents aspects du composants sont évoqués, très clairement.

Value for money

Tarif un peu élevé mais l'ensemble des fonctions et l'interaction avec les extensions tierces vaut son prix.

I used this to: Création d'une plateforme de cours en ligne en naturopathie (projet client)

Great Support so far

Eoin Scolard (2).
Posted on 22 September 2020

Functionality

I find it a little clunky, but workable. I would love a few simple tweaks, like being able to copy a lesson into other modules.

Ease of use

You need to be able to figure things out a little, as it's not 100% user friendly.

Support

Excellent support - my questions were answered and any issues were dealt with very well.

Documentation

It's reasonable, but I think it could be more thorough in drilling down to specifics.

Value for money

Excellent value for what you get, I'm very happy with the value aspect.

I used this to: building my HQ (Holistic Intelligence) online courses on my own website - you can see free modules on eoinscolard.

Thank you Shika Team

Exceptional support. Really cares and responds to issues in a timely manner.

Documentation isn't always easy to follow but continues to be improved.
