Which CMS to use?

[Proware]

I want to redo my web site using an open source or other good Content Management System.

Which ones provide the best performance / Sugar compatibility

I have been looking at Joomla, Druple but am open to other suggestions as well.

We are currently building a customer support portal using Drupal. Our initial research didn't indicate any specific difference in Sugar compatibility - we already had some internal familiarity with Drupal.

We will be going through various phases of development and I will be posting some screenshot samples of our effort as we reach the milestones. I will make an effort to make sure we share any specific challenges that we face in the development effort.

Judging by the project activity and number of downloads on this page, the best one to use would be Mambo. With this portal software apparently you can manage your cases etc. through Mambo. If it works in Mambo then chances are it will work (maybe with tweaks) in Joomla. We run our websites in Joomla, however we are yet to perform any integration with SugarCRM (yet another thing on the to-do list). We have found Joomla very easy to use and I have no concerns about compatibility after researching it all.

Hi guys,

I must add my 2 cents as I've been using Mambo since 2002 and Joomla! since the beginning. This article compares the Google Trend query results for Joomla and Mambo. Guess which CMS is generating more search interest around the World!

If you want to know more about Joomla!'s history and reasons behind the Joomla!/Mambo split, please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joomla

As a sidenote you might want to take a look at Ken Brill's new Joomla! site that we did for him.

Finally I'd like to mention that I might be little biased as I'm also moderator and translation co-ordinator on Joomla.org forums and we run popular local Joomla! support site at www.joomlaportal.fi
