In this article we present extensions for the Joomla CMS with which you will be able to create product catalogs and directories, allowing you to catalog products (or whatever you need) without having to create a payment platform or a shopping cart.

We'll talk about free and commercial tools that allow you to insert images, texts, and all kinds of product information.

K2

We'll start with K2, a true workhorse of Joomla, because its features are adaptable to almost all our needs. But in this case we'll mention it to create a product catalog.

Thanks to its option for extra fields and the ability to list items via an image and a title, we can create a main product image and the extra fields we need to show product characteristics; we can also add an attached file (ideal for technical specifications) and an embedded video.

K2 is a free component available for Joomla platforms.

A component as big as Joomla

SobiPro

We continue with SobiPro, an extension that allows us to create directories or product catalogs from the administrator, or enable the option from the web page so that users of our site upload announcements, products or whatever you need. All this is thanks to the creation of custom fields and platform moderation. (You can charge for each registration).

SobiPro is a free component available for Joomla platforms. It has commercial options.

Phoca Gallery

Although Phoca Gallery is a component for creating galleries, we can make a product catalog with the extension because we can insert an image, description, geolocation, details, and other information in each entry.

Phoca Gallery is a free component available for the Joomla CMS.

Virtuemart

We'll finish with Virtuemart, a powerful E-Commerce component that allows us to create a very professional product catalog. This way we'll have all Virtuemart's features, but the payment gateway and shopping cart will remain disabled.

Virtuemart is a free component available for Joomla platforms.
