After my experience using Drupal on big internet and intranet sites, I would never consider using it seriously again. I am right in assuming that WP, J!
Hmm… a site called wordpress beginner declaring wordpress the winner in every category except one. Not very objective IMO. When you look at functional scalability and the architecture of each of the reviewed products, there is no comparison. WP was initially designed as a simple blogging tool, and was then revised to handle CMS-like features: — The various popular plugins to handle basic editing, structure and extended CMS features frequently overlap and conflict with each other.
The underlying blog-centric architecture makes it very difficult to add CMS capabilities in a way that is intuitive. Drupal, on the other hand, was designed from the bottom up to scale functionally. The obvious trade-off is the learning curve. So, perhaps a better qualifier when doing this comparison would be: — If you need a simple blogging tool, WP is probably the most appropriate.
IMO, Joomla is a compromise solution — not the easiest for basic blogging and web design, but not the most robust for CMS functions. They want it in WordPress. This article is subjective opinion of author. All of that CMS have pluses and minuses.
I noone can answer this question of what CMS to use. It depends on specific case. For professional purpose, must be Joomla. I was so disappointed when I first install wordpress. Actually wordpress is NOT good for commercial site. It was NOT intended for commerce.
They now have plugins to make up for that lack of functionality, but to compare that to a CMS that has that functionality right out of the box, such as Drupal or Duda, WordPress is obviously going to lose. Will it be as easy as it should be? And they will typically charge their client more money for their trouble.
Thanks for the enlightenment about the 3 CMS platforms. To me, WordPress is the King of blogging platforms for the simplicity of ease to install and create blogs. WordPress at the time was a great blogging platform, but to make a website with it was very difficult.
Then a friend suggested Drupal, which I used exclusively for more than 3 years. I loved the flexibility and power of Drupal, and the control I had over content types, views, permissions, etc… Customizing and updating are the two banes of my existence, however, when it comes to Drupal.
If those two items were as easy as WordPress, I would probably never leave Drupal because I can do so much more with it. I think you forgot to consider which can actually handle large amounts of content.
If a site is small and stagnant maybe WordPress is best but when it grows I think they will move to the bigger guys, so why not start learning and working with the right CMS from the start?
I guess no one told newyorker. Those are just 2 examples of large content, high traffic websites using WordPress successfully. Security is one of my main concernes and for my largest client a large mediahouse I will never ever concider WP. One of my previous clients just got hacked even with a PRO firewall and a 13 string generated password.. It was done through a plugin. The plugins and templates are very often to blame. Joomla by the way is not safe either. FInd something else. Also, a voting by a WP-site such as this is highly biased so really you need to search reviews from a non-biased site.
I can not edit the post, so I will have to add a comment by myself. Security is not totally missing, my bad. I have over joomla sites to manage, 2 times i was hacked. Joomla is secure but using plugins can cause problems :.
Use the 3 CMS and that always gives me trouble is WordPress, including the upgrade process is always complex in the WP and customers have asked me Crackers opinion to solve problems and Joomla!
I use both WP and Joomla 3. For small easy sites WP is better as it is much faster. However if you need to manage access rights different groups and create policy then Joomla is the answer. In my opinion, these are two different products. WordPress comes with a robust user role management system. It can be easily extended using a plugin and developers can create any combination of permissions they need. Wp, out of the box, does not give the user a multilingual platform, and just the aspect that you have to get a plugin to do so makes it a loser on that category.
What about scalability? Can you tell which one is best for scalability and make a ultra video tutorial with all steps to make a really really scalable WordPress site, one that we can put on a TV ad and get thousands of click at once? I am with Fernando about scalability. Also, I like the review as it is focused on non-developers and is very clear.
However, I would have loved a section on advantages of each. WordPress wins in the sections you choose; however, as a developer and I have installed and played with all platforms; but have not actively used them all for development — mainly wp development right now , I would love to know the advantages and the strengths of the other two platforms of when they would be worth looking into for development of specific websites.
Fernando, scalability is largely a product of the hosting environment server resources, bandwidth, load balancing, etc… and not the web site software itself. Thanks for choosing to leave a comment.

See our article on why is WordPress free to learn more about free software. All three of them are written primarily in PHP. They all support MySQL as their database management system.
All three of them use themes and templates for visual appearance of sites, and plugins , modules, or extensions for extending features. As open source software, they are all community-driven projects. While there are a lot of similarities, they are different in many aspects. These differences make a big impact on users, and how they build their websites.
Ease of Use and Beginner Friendliness Most people creating their websites are not web developers, designers, or programmers. WordPress WordPress comes with a famous five minute install. Joomla Joomla installation may not look as quick as WordPress, but it has very similar steps. Joomla Just like WordPress, Joomla also comes with templates and extensions. Drupal Drupal has the same issue with the availability of themes and modules.
Winner: WordPress. Support Options The availability of help and support options is very important for beginner users. WordPress WordPress has a strong community of users. Apart from the free support options, there are ways to get paid support for WordPress as well. Joomla Joomla, just like WordPress has a large and very helpful community.
Drupal Drupal has a very proactive community of fans and users. However Drupal developer similar to Joomla are very expensive when compared to WordPress. WordPress WordPress does an excellent job of offering a good platform to build a multilingual site. Joomla Joomla comes with out of the box capability to handle a multilingual website without installing any extension.
Drupal Drupal comes with built-in support to handle non-English or multilingual sites. Security Security is a very important factor when choosing a CMS for your website. Joomla Joomla is very similar to WordPress when it comes to security. Drupal Drupal takes a very serious approach to security.
Take a look at this chart — it presents the usage of content management systems on the web:. The design quality is a huge factor in choosing your CMS. We all want our websites to look nice and not be an eyesore. Both Joomla and Drupal look a bit archaic if you ask us. WordPress sports a modern and optimized design. Setting the default design aside, most users will want to change to a unique one.
There are thousands of themes available for WordPress. Both free and paid ones. To start with, you can go to the official directory of themes at WordPress. There are more than 8, free themes available there. Then come in paid themes. The choice for both Drupal and Joomla is much smaller. Most importantly, there are hardly any free themes that look good.
That said, the paid themes do look good and offer a good variety of designs and functionality. The idea behind them is basically the same — to let you extend the default range of features that come with your CMS.
WordPress offers the biggest number of plugins, and those plugins are the most user-facing. Drupal modules are much more developer-focused. There are not as many user-facing modules, though. You can expect a new WordPress version update roughly every days. It has many advantages against its competitors in the market. It is not only a full-featured Content Management System, but it is also easy to learn, set up, and less costly to use.
