Which CMS is the best?

jumpenjuhosaphat · 10-16-2006, 10:46 PM

This is a poll to find out what your opinion is on content managment systems. I have never used any of these, but I am possibly interested in trying one. I want to build a website that is community based, with a forum, polls, image galleries, news, etc.

Hi there,

I added one in the poll for you called Subdreamer, it is brilliant. I own a full license on it and I don't regret it. It has so many add-ons and is so fast it is unbelievable.

Regards,
Kieran Taylor.

CMS system which will suit you best will depend on your requirements
Like for my (http://www.icesociety.org) website I found MDPro from maxdev.com to be more suitable than any in your list

I will recommend you to test different cms systems yourself
check out this site - http://www.opensourcecms.com/

Thanks for the link instruit, that is a useful website. I never would have imagined there being that many CMS' out there. Rep added.

My choice isn't listed here, but I am a pretty big fan of MkPortal, allthough I often get myself into trouble installing mods hehe

The portal was the only one that I was able to find that offered absolutely everything I wanted in a CMS ... Including blogs, PMs, Reviews, Downloads, Shoutbox (which i have learned ppl can highly abuse, and usually disable) gosh.. lotsa things about it I love

but I do think it's really a matter of personal choice .. just have to find your sites fit.

I also really loved the look of Xaraya, but I'll be darned (hehe @ darned) if I could get it to work! I'm just really not that bright sometimes

LOL

Hi there,

Who else voted for Subdreamer? Well if your CMS isn't on the poll, just post the name of CMS in bold text.

Kieran Taylor.

Heard Of SubDreamer (Ads)

But There is another not mentioned i think CMS600 And its really Gd

jumpenjuhosaphat · 10-17-2006, 04:23 PM

There are more CMS's than there are available options. Unfortunately there can only be 10 choices, and there are hundreds of possibilities, so I put up the most popular scripts. If you like a CMS not listed, then like Kieran said, just mention it in bold.

Geeklog(.net)

Haven't really had to use any others as this had all I needed.

I use RLLCMS. It's Simple yet effictive. RLLCMS Basicly is a combonation of all the RLL scripts in one big really over the top script.

Since i started using it my PR has gone up to PR 5. It SEO's the website page for you so it saves a lot of time. It does not use any javascript and most things are done server end.

nikg · 10-26-2006, 05:25 PM

Joomla is my favourite. Lot of support is available and you also have a large list of addons to choose from

Picked Joomla only one i know of...

Anarchy · 11-15-2006, 03:36 PM

I tried many of them and joomla is good !

odditysoftware · 11-15-2006, 03:56 PM

From a pure user perspective Joomla would probably be the best pick. Easies to tweak and add on to, and seems to have more of a straight forward approach that is easily 'understood' right away by even novice webmasters. Most of our client base with installed CMS systems have a Joomla preference.

From a developer perspective I would have to choose Subdreamer however. This is mostly due to the backend architecture, and database schema.
