¿Es Joomla para mi? |
|
|
|
Si lo que te preguntas es si te conviene utilizar Joomla u otro CMS para tus
propósitos, he aquí dos recursos muy interesantes que permiten
comparar y probar dos o más CMS en muchas de sus características
y funcionalidades.
El primer recurso es http://www.opensourcecms.com
. Se trata de un sitio web que contiene todos los CMS instalados, con su respectiva
información técnica, requerimientos de servidor, etc. También
hay zonas de demo para que puedas probarlos online.
El segundo recurso es una herramienta de comparación, podés verla
en: http://www.cmsmatrix.org
(El siguiente cuadro muestra un análisis comparativo entre Mambo y Joomla).
Obviamente esta comparación será más interesante si comparas
a Joomla con, por ejemplo, Drupal, PHPnuke, o cualquier otro CMS conocido.
