Some Guide on Choosing the Content Management Systems
There are dozens if not hundreds of different Content Management Systems (CMS) in existence. Many of these are free to use and are built using Open Source principles; that is, many different developers contributor their time and expertise to the particular project for free and the code is there for all to use. All these CMSs are created using dynamic server-side development languages, with PHP being the most common followed by ASP.NET, Python and Ruby, etc.
In contrast, there are a great deal less ready-built themes for Drupal. The documentation for Joomla is more thorough than the equivalent guides for Drupal, but both have extremely large online communities where you can seek advice. Drupal forums have over 500,000 members, while Joomla has over 250,000 – it’s always best to use the search function first to see if your query has been asked before as 90% of the time you’ll find that it has. The biggest problem for the novice Drupal user is getting to grips with the administration back-end section.
This can be very confusing for those new to Drupal, however this situation should improve by the time Drupal version 7 is released as they are spending a great deal of time and money in fixing the poor usability aspects of the CMS.
So here are some ideas for picking the right Content Management Systems. Often, website creators find their own personal preference after trying out a number of different CMSs – it’s good to try out as many as you can to see if they fit your needs and requirements.
