   Certainly, I have no intention of getting involved in any CMS war. However, based on my experience (as I worked with Joomla for 3 years), WordPress can provide better feedback in any field for large websites. Typically, and proven, more than 60% of websites worldwide use WordPress, while less than 15% use Joomla. In general, WordPress has a beautiful world for itself. Of course, before choosing a content management system, we must consider the nature of the website. Still, given the amazing advancements that WordPress has made and the plugins developed by major global companies, WordPress can now be used for any type of website.

   I tried all three editorial systems and from my own experience wordpress is good especially for beginners to learn how to work with the website and understand the basic principles. WordPress seems to me to be the most versatile and most importantly, in the event of a problem, it has a huge user base who are happy to help solve the problem for free.

   Great information! Based on my experience, in my opinion, WordPress is the easiest content management system that is highly customizable. On the other hand, Drupal is complex, but it is best for creating advanced websites; it is also a very secure CMS. Joomla lies in between these two CMSs on customizability, ease of use, and security fronts.

   I think this article is right. For the unskilled guy looking to set up a respectable managed website, WordPress is the best option. But it has limits that Joomla have overcome. For someone skilled in CMS development, Joomla rates #1 for it’s flexibility with custom developed components, it’s far more technical so to the guy looking for something decent and easy to understand, WordPress win. That however, doesn’t shine light on WordPress when compared to Joomla. All it says, for those with no developing skills, WordPress is the best. For those who develop PHP applications, Joomla is more adaptive and flexible, so it all depends on the individual skills.

   I have created numerous sites and have used all three contenders. I find Joomla the most versatile and agile to use especially for larger complex sites.
   But even for small sites, Joomla is super easy to use.
   I think WordPress is more suitable for blogging and for commenting and it’s fine for smaller sites. It’s just not as easy to fine-tune as Joomla.

    Comparing Drupal and WordPress is like comparing a car to a boat, or apples with onions. They both best in their own scope. Depending on various factors you should use one or another but this should be for another article.

    I use both and for me one thing that WP is not so good are the plug-ins. It’s true that WP has thousands of great plug-ins, but most of them are repeated in functionality and others are fremmium, meaning you have to pay if you want the full product. Also they tend to be turnkey solutions with no scalability in mind. And the same happens with themes.

    Drupal has a strict policy of non repeated contributed modules and they are all free (Open Source), no fremium modules or themes are allowed. The modules in Drupal are more like bases so you can develop your functionalities with your own code or with other modules. A good part of drupal modules don’t have visible outputs they only serve as backend connections between functionalities.

    Can’t talk about Joomla. No experience in it.

    While WP may have by far the biggest range of themes and plugins, most of their themes are pure repetitions and duplications, boring in general and created with very little creativity used.

    The same goes with WP plugins. To make this even worse, you have to argue with an army of ross-blaming plugin developers, each of them assuring your broken website is the result of „another‘ plugin installed, nothing to do with them.

    Ever heard of the saying; „too many cooks destroy the dish“?

    That applies a 100% to WP.

    I’d never use WP, not even if it was the last remaining CMS on the planet. Full of bugs, incompatible plugins, huge security vulnerabilities, lifeless designs, and a million of incompetent code hackers all pretending they are „professional web-programmers“.

    You can make a fairly nice looking website with WordPress, however what becomes evident fairly quick is that it’s a blog and it’s nearly impossible to get past that. If you want a blog, great! If not, it will take an enourmous amount of time and energy to tailor it to be something other than a typical blog.

    I’ve used a number of CMS’s over time and by far the worst one I ever found was WordPress. I’m very surprised that it came up top and even more surprised that it came up high for security.

    I’ve found a number of stupid security issues with wordpress – for example if you don’t know what your doing and build a site someone can easily add some GET variables to the end of WordPress sites and easily use that to retrieve the username of the site owner – ok the password is still hidden but any hacker is half-way there.

    I normally use Joomla for web design as I find it easy, but then again I spent many years learning C++ at University and have converted that knowledge into PHP.

    As for Drupal, I’m just learning bits of Drupal at the moment and I have to admit some bits of it look really good. The only bad thing I find is the cache when trying to design a template the cache does get in the way a bit. Also it seems strange to have sub-themes off from main themes.

    I recently came across a nightmare with the adaptive theme as I wanted to modify the menu code slightly, so I copied what I thought was the menu code (it was adaptivetheme_menu_tree and adaptivetheme_menu_tree (you’d guess that is what makes the menu seeing as it’s title contains the word MENU!!)), it turned out to do nothing – I don’t even know what that section of code does. Instead I found it mixes the primary menu up with adaptivetheme_links which is also used by multiple other functions – and there wasn’t even any proper way to split them so I had to figure it out by querying what the heading ID is and if it’s primary_menu it must be the menu I’m after.

    Unfortunately though I’m in a company that has a website based on Drupal and thinks Drupal is the best thing since sliced bread so I have to try and work with it. Hopefully the more I use Drupal the more I’ll figure it out – I’ve already created a shortcut link to the sites/all folder as that was bugging me having to go through all those directories just to get to where I can edit (in Joomla it’s just straight in, into the templates folder and you’ve got all your themes and overrides waiting there for you!)

        As far as my experienced with Joomla, it’s really hard if you’re upgrading from Joomla 1.5 or 2.5, it’s not impossible but it will succeed with many errors so i’m suggesting that it’s best to migrate the content and use the latest Joomla as its support more responsive themes and modules. And also WordPress is the worst and didn’t try out Drupal yet.

        Hi Heidi

        I’ve not used Joomla 1.5 in many years, most of my sites are based on Joomla 3.x as that is possibly the most responsive of them.

        Your best bet if you want to make a site more responsive is to look into the Boostrap API and include Bootstrap CSS as quite a lot of responsive menus and columns can be created with bootstrap and they automatically convert to look good on both mobile phones and desktop screens.

        As for going from one to the other – I would strongly suggest making a backup of your entire site before starting (including the SQL database), and maybe building the new site in a test location first before over writing the existing site (for example create it in a temporary folder first, make sure it all works and then move the site to the main folder – and don’t forget to change configuration.php with the new location details – and if you’ve used a different SQL server change the SQL server details too in configuration.php although if you just built it in a separate folder on the same host the SQL settings shouldn’t need altering).

        Also look at using the latest edition of Joomla – at present that is 3.6.2 – as that gives you the latest version with the latest security issues fixed and future upgrades should be easier, as of Joomla 3 they have made the upgrading process quite simple and easy to retain existing data, but going from 1 to 3 may mean you’ll have to copy and paste most of the original site if you want it to have the same data.

    I use both WordPress and Joomla for a long time now and Joomla, while having some nice features over WordPress, suffers heavily from the lack of good extentions (esp. free ones). Sometimes it takes me hours to find the right one and make it work which never happens in WordPress where I can search and when I find, there is a good support and documentation for it. Not to speak that some features don’t work so well in Joomla, like uploading pictures to gallery can be a real pain. Therefore, making a Joomla site look and work the way you want is more a matter of luck than effort, however, when you get there, it works well, even a bilingual support is great. Also, using publishing extentions like K2 can complicate things, a lot. I’d definitely recommend WordPress to beginners and Joomla to more advanced users and experienced website designers.

    I use to build sites with WordPress and Joomla! but mostly when I finished website built with WordPress, client asked for some new specific feature which was not easily implemented in WordPress (sometimes it was not possible) so then I reworked the site in Joomla!. Even WordPress is popular, simple and easy I mostly use Joomla! because of its complexity and option to easily and powerfully customize the code (as there are great and modern code techniques which can be easily extended). But I like them both – WordPress for really simple websites (blogs) and Joomla! for complex websites.

    I’ve used all big three systems (WP, Drupal and Joomla) in a corporate (big) environment.
    From a *user* point of view, I hated Drupal with the heat of a thousand suns. I found it clunky, restrictive (and not in a good way) and just plain bewildering at times. Of course, I admit I was biased coming to it because I’d already used J! and WP extensively and also another “real” enterprise CMS and was expecting a similar experience.
    And, as a someone who used to work for a govt dept that adopted Drupal – it wasn’t because it was secure, it was because “the White House uses it” and it was “free”, and both those reasons are so flawed they are silly. *eye roll*.
    After my experience using Drupal on big internet and intranet sites, I would never consider using it seriously again. Out of the box and even after extensive modifications and add-ons, it couldn’t do timed publication, you couldn’t work on a draft version of a page (and save the draft) and so many other niggly user end problems that it just made my website life miserable.
    After using WP for the last few years though, it’s my go-to system for publishing sites, mainly because it is so easy to teach other (non-technical) users how to use it and security can largely be addressed if a bit of care is taken from the beginning.

Allowing ’non techies‘ the ability to update the websites after delivery is all a bit new to me. It only really started to sink in after making a website for a friend and her casually saying ‚how do I update it?‘. I am right in assuming that WP, J! and Drupal are suitable for professional website delivery for clients?

    When you look at functional scalability and the architecture of each of the reviewed products, there is no comparison. None.

    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 structural scalabiity of WP pages and blogs is a function of plugins, not the underlying WP architecture.

    – It is painfully apparent that a lot of the admin, design, etc. features of WP were added after-th-fact. 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.

    But, in my experience, the lost productivity working with WP’s weak architecture (esp when attempting to implement more complex functionality) or dealing with conflicting 3rd party components, exceeds the Drupal 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.
    – If you need a robust CMS tool, then Drupal is 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.

    Just sayin…

        If I may, although I am not the most experienced user, I’ve done my research and, as had been pointed out in other comments, WordPress was designed to be a blogging tool and nothing more. 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. Of it requires an extension, it is nearly a guarantee that it simply won’t work as well as if it were part of the base coding. There are indeed a lot of commercial sites that use WordPress, but as another commenter is experiencing, that is often because it was requested by a business owner who doesn’t know any better and it makes life considerably harder than it needs to be for the developer. Will the developer be ABLE to make a commercial site with WordPress? Certainly. Will it be as easy as it should be? Probably not (though, once you’re used to it, it likely won’t seem like a big deal, especially if you haven’t used another CMS for the purpose). And they will typically charge their client more money for their trouble.

    I began my web development career using Dreamweaver/HTML.. WordPress at the time was a great blogging platform, but to make a website with it was very difficult. I first tried Joomla out of all 3, but it was so unintuitive, I couldn’t get the grasp of CMS and how it worked. 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.

    Then about 3 years ago I was hired to work on some WordPress sites – kicking & screaming, I should add – but once I saw that it had come a long way, I have started using it for most of the websites I build, because of the ease of updating and customizing. I still think security is a bit sketchy, but in reality, no CMS appears to be 100% secure.

    I do like Drupal better, but end up using WP because of the items I mentioned above.

    As a professione webdeveloper for many years. let me vioce my opinion.

    I agree thet WP is the most easy CMS of the three, but a very important aspect is totally missing: SECURITY. If you have a large business which depend on your website 100% you really need to tighten the security by all possible ways. Even then, WP is not more than 95% tight.

    Security is one of my main concernes and for my largest client (a large mediahouse) I will never ever concider WP. I use less known CMS’es wich are not on the hackers lists.

    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. My vote for security goes to CMS Made Simple. Never I have even heard of a CMS Made SImple site getting hacked.

    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.

      My point is, that WP is not safe enough out of the box. Joomla neither.

        I have over 100 joomla sites to manage, 2 times i was hacked. 1 was not on my server and outdated, other was outdated for 7 years.
        Joomla is secure but using plugins can cause problems (:

        With wordpress i have had a few hacked sites to fix and they where always outdated (:

    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! today this intact as it says security breaches.

    Just think the result was biased.

      I think because in Workdpress you can not manage policy settings, you can’t have different access rights for group of users. 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. WP is for blogging and Joomla is the proper CMS system. They are different and you can’t compare. On both you can get some commons but they are different and in my opinion you can’t sa this one is better then that one.

        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.

    Heh, I’ve obviously expected that a wp dedicated website would make wp the winner of such comparison.

    Although I do agree with almost on the article, there isn’t a tie on the multilingual aspect. 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.

    So… The article was pretty spot-on until you got your „wp-fanboy feelings“ cloud your judgement.

    PS: I do think wp is the better of the three, but that doesn’t excuse biased articles.

    Best regards,

    What about scalability? I had WordPress sites that couldn’t handle well lots of traffic. 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.

      Thanks,

      A site that can’t handle lots of traffic is experiencing a hosting issues, not a WordPress issue. Examples of WordPress sites that get tons of traffic: WNBA site, Mashable, The San Francisco Examiner, Garth Brooks website, Mercedes Benz, lots more here: https://wordpress.org/showcase/archives/.

      Fernando, scalability is largely a product of the hosting environment (server resources, bandwidth, load balancing, etc…) and not the web site software itself. I doubt that’s all going to get covered in one video.
