I'm really looking forward on purchasing JomSocial to make a professional social web, but I have some doubt before acquiring this extension.
1. Besides online demo, is there a way to test the extension before buying it? If not, if I buy JomSocial standard version, can I upgrade it later? What will be the cost?
2. Can I integrate the JomSocial framework with other platform, like Java or Delphi, without changing it's core code? I'm thinking in using Joomla! SOA API for this purpose.
3. Will I get support in changing some elements on my inteface (joomla template)? Because we want to use our own custom user interface that is working well with Joomla.
I have expertise in PHP and Joomla! development.
Thanks for your support in advance.
1. As for this question I assign Billing Department staff to it.
2. JomSocial is not a framework - it's a Joomla! extension (Joomla! is a framework) :) Not sure whet you mean by integrating Java or Delphi with JomSocial...
3. Only slight support as we don't support customizations. For more informations regarding what we do and don't support you'll fine here:

I'm sorry Pedro but for now we don't have trial versions of our products. Anyway, remember that our demo site allows you to login on backend to test different settings. If you like the extension you could buy Standard version and upgrade later by paying $50.- dollars from My Downloads page.
If you have more questions regarding this let me know.
