Testimonial - David

I'm a new user to Joomla! and still finding my way around. I tried a few free templates but wasn't impressed. I paid for a subscription to a template provider for smarter looking templates. I got the templates OK but there was virtually zero documentation. Then I discovered JoomlaShine and JSN Epic Pro. It comes with great documentation and when I did hit typical new user issues, support was right there.
