Joomla is the Best Content Management System (CMS) for Government Websites and News Sites
In our collective opinions here, Joomla is the best Content Management System (CMS) for non-profit, Government-owned websites and news sites. We have tested several free CMS softwares but we found Joomla to be the most flexible, easiest to manage and has tons of support and plugins. We have tested Drupal, Joomla, PHP-Nuke and Xoops in some of our test sites but Joomla simple bested them in many areas.
Joomla as Free Content Management System (CMS)
Two days ago, Eric Nagal (a contributor to this blog + long-time friend) and myself were evaluating the site he developed for a Local Government Unit in Ilocos Norte. He showed me the site which he did using the free Joomla 1.0 (opensource). The layout and functionality of the site are indeed very very good and so I am hoping that someday, this guy’s efforts would pay off. Maybe a simple appreciation and some content as contributions to the site from his co-workers would do just fine. But until now, I’m not even sure if appreciation was even given to the poor fellow. Maybe I should give him money as a form of rewarding his good and unselfish deed.
