Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.

More Jive Pros →

"One of the most robust, stable, secure, feature-rich CMSs on the market.""The speed in which you can take a CMS and make it a full-blown shopping cart with analytics tracking, SEO, user accounts, security, and ease of use through a robust framework of modules and plugins to enhance and promote-related content is about as turnkey as it gets with Joomla."

More Joomla Pros →

Cons
"The search engine could be improved and also provide some kind of indexing."

More Jive Cons →

"I would like to see more back-end admin power pulled into the front-end, therefore the admins will not have to use the back-end as much, especially for the menu manager, user manager, etc. versus using third-party extensions to achieve this.""I would like to see the same sorting and attributes available through the web browser on the JED (sorting by free or commercial license, sort by rating, popularity, etc.) within the back-end Joomla Web Installer when browsing extensions."

More Joomla Cons →

Pricing and Cost Advice
Information Not Available
  • "Joomla is open source, therefore free. Only hosting, the time to build it along with the training time is your startup cost."

This experience dates back to when I built www.adhe.edu with Sharepoint 2007 a few years ago. I subsequently wrote this blog entry about my experience shortly after joining Mediacurrent. This roundup will also act as a refresher for those who read my original “Drupal vs. Sharepoint” blog. Yammer, which was recently bought by Microsoft and is the tool we currently use for office communication will also get some mentions throughout this article.
