Hi all,

In my point of view Joomla is the best CMS.
What is your views ?

It entirely depends on the content being managed, and a whole pile of other factors individual to the website or system being created. What makes you say Joomla over anything else?

I use Wordpress for almost every site I do, because it's fairly easy for me in terms of PHP coding (as a designer)

Joomla seems too bulky to use for simple projects, like blogs, and I've never seen a site powered by Joomla that doesn't look like a template.

Just my opinions.

I agree with Salathe, depends on what you are doing. Simple blogging you can't go wrong with Wordpress. Joomla is good if you are going for a more full featured site, but even then, alot of the features will go unused by most people. It's important to find out what your needs are and then go looking for a package that meets your needs.

Anyways, I prefer Drupal to Joomla anyways

Well, I personally like to stick to WordPress.

However, if you're looking to build a website which needs a lot of components or modules....Joomla wins hands down.

If modules isn't the primary focus - and you're only looking for a simple, lightweight CMS - try out Moodle.

Joomla is slow in my opinion.

Wordpress is easily customized, but yeah, if you need modules, use Joomla.

I will bumb thread a bit. I was making a service with big plans and i was looking for CMS. Tried joomla but couldn`t really get used to it, maybe i will try again, but for 100% i can encourage to use MODx. For me it`s very nice style, flexible, with nice community (maybe not as big as joomla and nearly 0 in my country but still), it`s stable, have pretty nice extras download avaible and so on. I realy like it.

For simple like main with news and some sub-pages i like FrogCMS. It`s easy for customers for example.

Definitely Wordpress for me.

If there isn't a plugin to do what you want with it already, it's simple enough to manipulate Wordpress to do basically anything.
