Presales questions

Hi, I'm evaluating if CB is a right extension for a site I have to build up. To understand this I have a few questions:
- does it possible to create more than one private "room", I mean chats invisibles for others on the same site using User Group and Joomla ACLs?
- created chats are part of a wordwide-extended network or just exist on my site?
- if I buy some extra modules, I have to pay continuously, each year for them?
- what does it includes a year payment?
This is because I would like to create isolated small chats, invisibles for anyone else than every single chat member of that close environment. And those isolated chats have to exists under a single site, invisibles for anyone external to my site.
I'm sorry if those are very elementary questions but I heard something about CB just today for first time...
Many tks,
Gianni

- does it possible to create more than one private "room", I mean chats invisibles for others on the same site using User Group and Joomla ACLs?

We don't provide chat. Best I can suggest is using CB GroupJive and having using private groups, which can include their own activity streams if using CB Activity and CB Auto Actions with CB GroupJive.

- created chats are part of a wordwide-extended network or just exist on my site?

We don't provide chat so neither. If you take the suggested approach above regarding CB GroupJive then it would be specific to your site only.

- if I buy some extra modules, I have to pay continuously, each year for them?

If you want updates and support then yes you need to renew whatever subscription you choose to buy.

- what does it includes a year payment?

Oh, I'm sorry. I misunderstood the sentence "Transform your Joomla users into a thriving online community". I understood users could be in touch within them, organized in Joomla User Goups. I'm sorry. Thanks for your answer.

Users can communicate with one another, but you specifically asked about chat which we don't provide. Closest we have is private messages, but that's not quite chat like what you're probably familiar with on popular social network sites.
