50. “ I choose Joomla + JomSocial as a base to start with. It has evolved well beyond the base system. I am intimately involved with both Joomla and Drupal production sites. We have found that Joomla and Drupal have their strong points, but the time to market was the key factor, so we chose Joomla. Drupal just cant pull off a site like this in the time we did it (also, we have a rockstar team!!). … I hope Azrul keeps up the good work and keeps Jomsocial ahead of the curve and its competitors.” Dan Lopez Web Architect The Linux Foundation
51. JomSocial is #1! We recently launched our bar/pub/liquor review site and I have to say that JomSocial is by far the best thing for us. The component helped integrate a ton of functionality into our website with little effort and little customization required. It just works and I can't argue with that. I've used other social networking software and none is as polished as JomSocial ... and with the new 1.6.x release, the upgrade went without a hitch. We just got reviewed by an online magazine and our membership jumped 1000 members in just hours - JomSocial held up smoothly ... can't say enough about it. Thanks for a great component!
