joomla or wordpress

What is the advantage, if any, of using joomla or drupal over wordpress. Wp sems to be much more user friendly.

 

Wordpress is quick and easy

 

I've tried using Joomla but I found it to be too complex to use compared to wordpress. I think the advantage Joomla has over wordpress is that you can create more layout options than you can with wordpress plus managing multiple content types is easier (at least that's what it seems to me when I was testing it out). But the learning curve was much higher than wordpress for me. It was a lot easier to set up wordpress and find a template that had a layout that I wanted and use that. Of course, this was a few years ago. Joomla may have gotten easier but Wordpress has gotten more robust as well. If your needs are mostly blog posts and posting ads, wordpress is probably the easiest between the two.

 

wordpress because its user friendly and have more plug-ins

 

I have used only wordpress so far..it is user friendly and you can manage or learn easy then others.

 

I have not used Joomla but I think wordpress is very easy for everyone and Joomla is for those who are more technical.

 

No doubt that the world of websites is increasing day by day and so is the demand. And, to be able to make it easier for the owners to make a wise choice between these two CMSs to be able to come up with a website keeping in consideration the requirements of the business project. Therefore, we would be incorporating some of the basic and the most important differences that lie between the two i.e., Joomla! and Drupal

 

Never tried Wordpress.
Joomla is not complex for me. I have some tutorials/help videos and Ebooks. You can manage everything easily in Joomla.
If you're going for Joomla use version above 1.5.18 (highly recommended 1.6 version)

 

Wordpress is easy to navigate and learn + its plugins are really good

 

wordpress is easier than Joomla..for the time being Wordpress suits me more rather than Joomla

 

WordPress rules. Why?

1. Easy and user-friendly
2. Enhanced secured (very less to non security issues as compared to other CMS)
3. Thousands of plugins
4. Search engine friendly (my favorite)

Enjoy!

 

WP is a blogging plateform and joomla is a complete cms. So it is very much depend on your requirements. Both are complete functional softwares.

 

I prefer to use Wordpress over Joomla. I find wordpress to be much more user friendly, and the plugins that wordpress offers are great! I like how you can find a plugin for almost anything, and the support forums at Wordpress are great. I can usually get an answer to any of my issues within 10-15 minutes!

 

I would disagree with this. When Wordpress originally came out, it was a blogging software. Wordpress today is a full fledged Content Management System.

 

Wordpress is easy and very good reputation from google indication

 

This is like asking whether someone likes ford, dodge, chevy, or toyota the best. Depending on who you ask, your going to get a different answer.

I have used both wordpress and joomla. Once I got the hang of wordpress, I found it easier to use the joomla. I used joomla for about 6 - 8 months on the project and still found it confusing and hard to use. On the other hand, I got the hang of wordpress in a matter of weeks.

 

wordpress is a good content management system and its quite easy to use

 

As you move on, you will realise WordPress is more beneficial than Joomla or Drupal. WordPress has immense support worldwide and easier than any other CMS.

If you get struck anywhere while using WP then you can easily Google the problem and have it sorted within less time.

Hope you are getting my point of view.

Thanks!

 

Wordpress to joomla is like apple to pc. It's just much easier.

 

Wordpress is much easier to manage then Joomla and Drupal
