Clarion Template from RocketTheme

RocketTheme is well-known for it's collection of high-quality premium Joomla themes. However, in the past there have been very few business/corporate styled themes available in their collection.

Enter Clarion, RocketTheme's club template from February 2012. This is easily one of the best designed business-style Joomla themes I've seen. But, it's not just a single theme. With 12 preset color combos and a whopping 78 module positions, it's guarantee that no two sites using Clarion will ever look the same.

Beyond the look, Clarion is intuitive all over. Choose between two animated menu systems: Fusion with MegaMenu (CSS Dropdowns) or Triple Level Splitmenu in the template configuration. It also features a main content slider with beautiful transition effects, as well as a tabbed slider module.

Clarion mobile joomla templateClarion includes some other neat modules to add a touch of interactivity to your pages. It supports a variety of RocketTheme's popular add-ons: RockTabs is a slick tabbed content-slider. RokTwittie is perfect for displaying your latest tweets. RokGallery is a user-friendly image gallery with tons of advanced features, such as image resizing, cropping, and a drag & drop interface to name a few. RokGallery is also available as a separate extension that you can install on any Joomla site.

And to top it all off, Clarion features built-in integration and styling for K2, the advanced content extension.

Behind the scenes, Clarion is a well-developed Joomla template that's built on the flexible Gantry Framework. Among other benefits, Gantry offers an advanced template control panel that's simple to use, caching options to improve site speed, and a mobile-ready layout for iPhone and Android.

All in all, I give Clarion a solid 2 thumbs up. If you're looking for a premium, clean business theme then head on over to RocketTheme and check out the Clarion Demo.
