Product Catalog X is versatile and very configurable. It’s also extremely simple to get set up and started while allowing for more experienced web admins to design the content presentation that is desired.
Just what I needed!

I am very impressed with the design and functionality of this plugin. I have a client who needed to display conveyor products in many different categories, but without any ecommerce necessary. Product Catalog X fit the bill perfectly. After some CSS to hide the sidebar (thanks Elegant Themes blog) completely, I was able to display products on the full canvas of the theme. There are some advanced features here too, like the magnifying hover that you often see if high-end ecommerce shopping experiences, the scale on click (thumbnail acting as button) that is a nice UX touch, and more. Creating new products and categorizing them is a breeze. Click paths are rational and include breadcrumbs and Back to Products link/button at the bottom. Customized with CSS, the products section fits the rest of the site design really well. Also, no crashes. Kudos to the team!
