The competition between WordPress and Joomla! has benefited the users greatly. Due to the
fact that they have been presenting a serious competition to each other over the last decades –
the platforms have evolved greatly to provide us now with what we call a perfect CMS.
When looking at WordPress vs. Joomla! 3.x ­ one is better than the other. Despite the fact that
they were both clumsy, badly written and had lots of security holes at the very beginning of their
path – nowadays they both present a great foundation for creating everything that looks good and
works well. At least at this point there is no a clear cut winner between them, and a great deal of
buzz around them is going back and forth in the sphere of web market. Let’s try to outline all the
ins and outs of these two platforms for you to have the possibility to make the right choice.
Those who wish to build powerful websites or extended web projects without having to worry
about all the coding, and technical aspects of it – WordPress is a way to go. Enjoying the fame
of being the most user­friendly and efficient platform out there – WordPress has achieved its

3. pinnacle of success over the last years. Presently it covers a lion’s share of the web market
being trusted by millions of people all over the globe. Despite all the benefits associated with
WordPress, it indeed has some drawbacks that make some people gravitate towards another
platforms. Let’s try to focus on them:
1. Security (being the victim of its own success – the platform has security holes).
2. Cost of Maintenance (the fact that WordPress installation and usage is completely free
doesn’t necessarily mean that its maintenance is free of charge as well. Be ready for some
financial investments for your hosting, tools and some plugins).
3. Customization Complexity (you are going to have a hard time if you plan to customize your
WordPress site without the drag & drop tools).
The latest releases of Joomla! 3.x came with serious improvements under their hood. Though
Joomla! has a bit steeper learning curve than WordPress, its “complexity” allows it to be a much

4. more versatile solution. Let’s now dive deeply in those Joomla!x3 features that made their best to
take the CMS crown from WordPress:
● Extensions Variability: The extensions library is packed with tons of amazing and free
to use plugins.
● Strong Content Management Capabilities: Unlike WordPress, Joomla was originally
developed as an enterprise­grade CMS that makes it far more preferable when handling
a huge number of articles.
● Extensive User Permissions: The feature allows up to nine different types of user
permissions for those running running a website with a wide range of users access
content.
