Do we have this import feature in joomla for free? Or still charged?
Hi Oguz,
Two reasons here:
We have different markets and different approach for each one. I wish we can do the same for Joomla but the problem is that platform's auditory is not growing and making something free will not bring us more customers and chances for grows as it happens with WordPress.
The other big reason is that solution is different: for WordPress it is simple import. For Joomla we deliver service that is unique for each customer. We actually adjust script for each Joomla case and in many cases add specific rules once importing items - this is something our WordPress customers don't receive out of the box.
I understand, it's a business at the end of the day ofcourse, and tbh i do those importing on my backend with my abilities yet a feature is always appreciated for many other that can't process those and solve that's why i wanted to know.
Thanks for taking the time to response and explain it all. Much appreciated as always, you guys doing great and hope you achieve a lot more going forward.
