Comparing Drupal and Joomla for Building Online Store

[Mika]

Drupal and Joomla both are open-source content management systems that you can use to build an online business. If you want to create an online store and trying to find out which one is better, here is a comparison between Drupal and Joomla for building an online store.

If you want a Content Management System (CMS) that is flexible and scalable, look no further than Drupal. It is the best option for creating large and complex e-commerce websites. Drupal boasts huge community support from developers who are active in creating and maintaining add-ons (called modules). Modules add additional functionality to your website.

With its simpler interface, Joomla is more user-friendly. If you are planning a small-scale ecommerce site, Joomla is an ideal platform. You can create a good online store without a lot of technical experience.

Drupal and Joomla both can be customized with add-ons. The basic difference between these two CMS is the kind of website they can create or are ideal for creating. Drupal is for large-scale ecommerce whereas Joomla is for small and medium-scale stores.

Which should you choose depends on a lot of things such as the kind of website you want to create, and the level of technical skills you have.

Drupal and Joomla are good CMS but in term of protection from spam comments Drupal is better than Joomla this is because I prefer Drupal in this point but for hosting images Joomla is better or referring for external images.

If you want a content management system that is as easy as wordpress but more powerful than wordpress, look no further than Joomla. Joomla is idea content management systems for people who do not have programming skills but want to create powerful websites. Joomla is beginner friendly, just like wordpress. Drupal is very powerul,it is the best cms for complex website but it is not friendly towards beginners, you need a lot of skills related to coding in order to build websites using Drupal. Drupal is best for developers where as Joomla can be easily used by the beginners as well.

Most of the users choose wordpress but even Joomla and Drupal have their own force points means you could alternate between the three of them for the best result but as people are limited to one blog means they have to choose this or this and will not going to run Drupal and Joomla and Wordpress blogs in same time as administration will be typically hard.

Even though you can build content site, for instance blogs or forums, with drupal and joomla, these platforms are specifically designed to create complex kind of websites for example multi user sites, online marketplaces, ecommerce sites, etc. Wordpress is so easy that you can create a site within 5 minutes even if you are using wordpress for the first time, however, that is not the case with drupal and joomla. Between drupal and joomla, joomla seems little easy as it is considered beginner friendly, however, drupal is designed for developers who can write codes and customize the sites. Joomla has a better community support compared to drupal
