Drupal vs Joomla


We  are going to show you the best comparison between Drupal and Joomla. The Content Management Systems (CMS) have made it easier for the different web developers to create and maintain the websites. It is not very easy to create, edit or change the elements of a website. Creating a website is absolutely hassle-free now. The best thing about the CMS is that even a layman can make website without being a tech savvy or without having the knowledge of HTML applications.
Just installing the content management system on your web portal is all what you need to do and you can start with your own website. You can easily upload the content, images, and videos and maintain your website for long without too much stress. When it comes to Self hosted sites, Joomla solutions are having bit benefit over Drupal solutions as people complain Drupal as bit unfriendly environment, as Joomla Hosting tends to work well and its user friendly. Most Drupal Hosting will be having little problems like speed, reliability, few other limitations which cause major damage for your website’s SEO.
However there are many open source content management systems over the internet now but the two best ones are Joomla and Drupal. Both of these content management systems are being used widely by the webmaster and bloggers to create different websites. Joomla and Drupal both have some advantages as well as disadvantages; the webmasters select one out of them according to their requisites and expectations
Joomla Advantages:
  • Easy deployment
  • More intuitive administration user interface
  • Editing content is simple
  • Lots of polished modules for things like calendars, polls, etc.
  • Easy addition of modules
  • Version is available
  • A large community of developers (more than Drupal) for helping with setup and development
  • Multilingual
Joomla Disadvantages:
  • 1 installation of the software gives you 1 website
  • Categories can only go two levels deep
  • Limited roles and permission allowances
  • Modules cost you money
  • URLs are not search engine friendly (there is a purchasable module)
  • Out-of-the-box blogging functionality is mediocre
Overall, we find that Joomla is an excellent CMS for basic to complex websites. The blogging feature is not highly developed, nor is the capacity to multi-purpose your content in different areas of the site due to the rigid filing structure it requires. It has a large user base where the websites seem to be more personal, small business, and non-community-building sites. This last point isn't a cut against Joomla, but only serves to show that it's mostly being used as a CMS and not for building a participative website.

Drupal Advantages:

  • Easy deployment
  • Editing tabs integrated into actual pages
  • Editing content is simple as well
  • Very flexible in its configuration
  • Modules are plentiful, free, and suitable for non-profits
  • Version is available
  • Many high profile sites use Drupal (e.g.: MTV UK, BBC, the Onion, NASA, Greenpeace UK, Kleercut )
  • Multiple levels of categories allowed along with the easily integrated tagging system
  • Human readable URLs which are search engine friendly
  • 1 installation allows you to create and manage multiple websites (very handy when creating campaign sites)
  • Highly configurable user permissions handling

Drupal Disadvantages:

  • Administration area is clunky, but it's getting better with each version
  • The terminology in the administration can be cryptic
  • Adding a visual theme to Drupal can be time consuming
  • Support for the free modules can be frustrating
Overall, we find Drupal an excellent CMS for organizations looking for a community building CMS. We found some very high profile organizations using Drupal, plus we liked the flexibility of categorizing your pages wherever and being able to fine tune the permissions for each role.If You want more Information Please visit our Website Blog: http://www.techzar-web-developers.com/Blog/Latest.html
