Who has time to read pages and pages of reviews on different open source content management Systems? We thought it would be useful to give a 5 word review on some of the main ones based on our experience – here it is.
Drupal – Popular, Powerful, excessively complicated, scalable.
Joomla! – Extensible, somewhat complex, Powerful, Tall-Poppy.
Mambo – Umm, its it like dead?
WordPress – Simple, lightweight, popular, easy.
Silverstripe – Sexy, simple, user-friendly, young.
There are plenty of other Open Source CMSs available of course – we generally use WordPress for clients who want simple sites who aren’t planning on growing their site too much and Joomla for everyone else.
