Comparing Open-Source Content Management Systems
In "Comparing Open-Source Content Management Systems" Tech Soup considers the strengths and weaknesses of three popular open source content management systems: Joomla, Drupal, and Plone.
Based on my experiences with these CMSs, I'd say their evaluations are spot on. I haven't personally used Joomla, but I've seen quite a few sites deploying it, and it seems to be pretty user friendly. Drupal is what we're using at Lafayette for the ITS site and Soapbox; we're using an antiquated version now, but I'll be upgrading to the latest and greatest version starting next week (on a development box of course). I experimented with Plone about two years ago, and while I liked its workflow tools, the templating system made customizing the look and feel of Plone sites a challenge.
