Submissions to the DotNetNuke Review Program are temporarily on hold.

Thank you for your interest in this important program.  We appreciate your desire to participate and look forward to a completely reformed program in the coming months to serve you better.

If you have questions regarding reviews in progress, please contact reviews@dotnetnuke.com.

The DotNetNuke Review Program was created with the intent to aid developers and designers, by providing prescriptive guidance so that their modules and skins meet rigorous quality standards.  The program also benefits consumers; allowing them to easily identify modules, skins and vendors which meet predefined quality criteria.  The review criteria can be broken down into 3 broad categories:

1. The module/skin meets defined quality criteria
2. The module/skin uses established DotNetNuke framework features
3. The module/skin vendor provides defined levels of documentation and support

The Review Program follows a tiered approach, with each tier being more rigorous and in-depth than the preceeding tier.  Currently, Tier One is the only review being offered.  Additional tiers will be added in the coming months.

Module and Skin review guidelines are broken down into three categories:

1. Mandatory
2. Elective
3. Optional

Mandatory guidelines define tests which every module or skin must pass in order to pass the review.  Elective guidelines define a series of tests and provides some leeway for developers to choose from a list of alternative implementations for a given guideline.  Finally, optional guidelines describe a number of features which are recommended, but not mandatory for a product to pass the review. 

One of our primary goals when developing the guidelines was to define a set of quality criteria which every vendor should be able to meet, even though in some cases their module or skin needs to deviate from the standards due to the nature of the module or skin.

The review guidelines outline the technical requirements for software applications for vendors to qualify for the DotNetNuke Software Review Program. The guidelines outline the specific requirements that each extension type must meet in order to pass the review. Once a vendor’s product has passed the review, they will be authorized to display the DotNetNuke logo that corresponds to the extension type and review level.

NOTE:  In order to submit modules or skins to be reviewed as part of the DotNetNuke® Review Program, you must be a registered user of this site ( use the register link if you have not yet registered ). Once you have successfully signed in, you will be able to view the instructions located at the bottom of this page and submit your item(s) for testing.

DotNetNuke Reviewed Report - Vendors who submit item(s) for review will receive a detailed report listing the results of all tests.  For items which do not pass testing, the report will include details about the issues discovered during testing.  We will also identify remediation steps to aid in resolving the identified issues. 

DotNetNuke Reviewed Logo - Vendors whose Modules, Skins and Containers successfully pass the Review will be authorized to display the DotNetNuke Reviewed Logo with their product.  This logo clearly identifies your product as meeting the rigorous standards of the Review Program. Users can quickly look at the review details just by clicking on the logo.  This will display the DotNetNuke Review Verification page.

Marketing Promotion - a premium text listing will be added to the official DotNetNuke Reviewed Resource Directory, promoting your specific products which have passed the review.  You will be able to manage the details of your listing continuously on-line through a DotNetNuke Reviewed Benefits page.
