It's just a tool to do the job AFAIC.

There may well be better options out there now, but after 5 years on Joomla, and 4 years on Mambo prior to that, I'm pretty much set in my ways.

I love JOOMLA, super easy and yet you can do a lot .

Joomla is good. Otherwise there would not be not many people using it. I have one of my important websites on Joomla a few years ago. Then we moved it on a quite good proprietary CMS & Site Builder. Now we are moving to MODx.

Yeah, I love it.

I have been using Joomla for two years, it works well for me and never have any problems so far.

I'm glad I checked out all of your posts. I have tried to teach myself on several different programs. And they all have there ups and downs. I still haven't found my "Love" yet. I am going to check them all out. THANKS. If there are any other suggestions that would be great

Joomla is tough but better as compare to wordpress. Wordpress are used for blog posting and with Joomla you can integrate shopping card, can create photo gallery, news feed, membership registration...

I love joomla, it is more powerful than wordpress and has better seo. I can create much more professional websites with it and also train people to use it.

JOOMLA rocks, easy and lot of flexibility.

I like using Joomla, it is very flexible and easy to use.

"Joomla is a dead end" I don't think so. I have worked with both and joomla can do pretty much anything Drupal can do, only easier and faster.

It all depends on the type of business and features you are going to include for your website but you cant ignore the fact, it is among top 3 along with wordpress and drupal.

Both are great tools

I think Joomla CMS is a good open source to update websites frequently. Even non-technical people can also easily handle joomla according to their needs. And if you have a cPanel then you can easily install Joomla for your website through Softaculous or fantastico.

Both has their own advantages and disadvantages. Though, what you think about SEO on Wordpress and Joomla is interesting. I got a hard time making URL on my Joomla website search engine friendly, no matter what components I tried. While on Wordpress, all your webpages' URL's are search engine friendly by default.

I have tried Joomla and was not a big fan of it. It seems a little complicated to perform simple actions. I have been working with scripts and websites for years and as many times I have tried to use Joomla, I just ended up removing it within a couple days.

I am a wordpress fan myself. Its a very versatile system that can be expanded and tweaked in so many ways. I also think it is a lot more user friendly as far as managing your site.
