News about Chill Creations, Joomla! and more

We have just released ccInvoices 1.4.1, which adds compatibility for Joomla! 1.6/1.7 to our user friendly joomla invoicing/billing extension. This is a release candidate, which means there are no known bugs, but we advice caution (and a Joomla! backup) when upgrading.

Although we have extensively tested this new version, it is entirely possible that there are still remaining bugs. As always, we are available to timely solve any issues you might encounter. For every issue, please submit a support ticket.

ccInvoices 1.0 is coming along nicely, and will hopefully be stable soon. We will probably miss our July deadline for 1.0, but the good news is that I already received version 1.1 for testing this week. Because ccInvoices 1.1 is also looking really promising, I created a short demo video for any interested users.

ccInvoices 1.1 will have frontend invoice viewing (for your customers). It will be really easy to add Joomla! users to a certain contact, so they can log in to your website to view and download invoices. In ccInvoices 1.2, we will also add the ability to pay invoices online (with Paypal and iDEAL).

We started planning the first version of ccInvoices the other day, and I was curious to see what our [online invoicing] competition would be like. "Competition" is not just any other Joomla! extension offering invoicing functionality, but any web based application.

I found that there where many different flavors of invoicing/billing solutions, and some are really impressive! Find a list below with the few I liked most.
