Best open-source CMS

Wordpress has got voted to be the Best Open Source Social Networking CMS in 2007! And that was long BEFORE everything has become even more comfortable with the release of WP 2.5. Today i wouldn't really use anything else than Wordpress anymore and i tried them all.
Wordpress ist fast and reliable. Due to thousands of different plugins you can extend wp to whatever you want/need it to be.
To setup Wordpress isn't difficult and when it setup the right way, you can have great success in search engine listings within days or weeks. I've proofed that many times.

50 steps to install Wordpress the right way.

We have sites that run on Wordpress, Drupal and Joomla but I like most our Drupal site. There so many bugs in wordpress and their security is not stable.

i like wordpress,it's plug-ins very powerful

I use Wordpress and it does all the things I need to and the code is easy to edit
So is a good CMS for me.

I would have to go with Joomla

To my mind, wordpress is the best open-source CMS software.

All the 3 CMS's mentioned here are best in their own terms.. but the best for an individual is the one that it performs better for him and which can be customized according to him...

We have been doing a lot of customized wordpress themes for our clients and Wordpress is the current market right now since lot of plugins are available free in the market and the coding structure is quite easy to understand.!

I use Joomla

i like Joomla, i use it my self Joomla has a lot of support and addon they have a forum where you can get help if you run in to any.

If it is simple cms then wordpress is the best

Great post! Thank you

Wordpress and Joomla are the best CMS in my point of view.

joomla is better , i never face any problem

Well... this is a really interesting thread, except that I am coming away no wiser than I was before.

What my problem is about, is to set up a small website with a community forum for local garden enthusiasts.

Lots of people are saying that WordPress will do almost anything. I had thought that WordPress was for blogging, but it has such a huge following and brilliant reputation that I'd go with it... if it really can do everything. Can anyone point to a professional website with forum powered by WordPress? I would actually like to see the pudding, as it were, and not just hear how nice it tastes!

Then there's the Joomla -v- Drupal strife. Both apparently have forum, blog etc add-ons available.

Joomla has more users. The Drupal people sneer that this is because Joomla is easy to learn, but it is not so reliable or extendable as Drupal, and not so suitable for big sites. Can anyone point to a Drupal-powered site and say, "This is brilliant, but couldn't be done in Joomla!" (Or vice versa.)

Nobody says that Drupal is unreliable or underpowered, but they do say it is very hard to learn. That is my first impression too. Does anyone know of a gentle introduction to Drupal?

Coldfire,

I consider myself pretty novice when it comes to web devlopment, I know very little and was able to pick up Drupal rather quickly. Because it's open source they have a forum community and you can usually go to google and type "drupal.org your question" and find an answer to any problem you encounter.

The other thing I think is great about Drupal is that they continually update the source code for it as the web evolves and there are always new plug ins and templates being developed by users...  

I personally love Drupal and wouldn't use anything else but the only other CMS' I have experience with are Nucleus, B2 Evolution, and Joomla. I actually thought Joomla was more clunky and difficult to use than Drupal was but that's just my personal opinion.

To add to the discussion...  I've also heard good things about "Cushy CMS" from people who I respect.

I know very little and was able to pick up Drupal rather quickly.

Many thanks, AMD (I bet your friends call you AMD for short)! You have encouraged me to persevere in learning Drupal.

Apparently this is hot-hot-hot!

Has anyone know any of good Java CMS? I do not know PHP too much - but I know Java pretty good... It is not worth for me to learn PHP just only to develop my PHP CMS.
