Joomla will be much better than wordpress as it comes with a lot of high end features and apps but wordpress lacks in providing the latest updated apps.

Many professional web designers prefer Joomla for developing websites and WordPress for a blog.

If we talk about the CMS site then we can't forget wordpress and joomla, as both having excellent feature.

Hi lailagwb,

In my opinion Joomla is better platform as compare to Wordpress, as there are many features that lead it to say a best E.commerce platform. Here are few features:

1) Joomla is more "feature-rich" CMS as compare to Wordpress when we are going to add an image or publishing a news.
2) Joomla is supported by a strong community to help the end users.
3) Joomla provide more professional look to an E.commerce website as compare to Wordpress.
4) Joomla has thousands of extensions, which increase its functionality.
5) Joomla is much secured and has great flexibility.
6) Joomla offers a complex multiple user privilege system.
7) Joomla is also the best open source CMS solution when it comes to multiple user groups.

So these are the few features which prove it better platform over Wordpress.

Both CMS are good, but which one is better can not be decides, as both have different benefits.

In case of Wordpress, it is simple CMS and required less technical knowledge. It has various plugins, themes which give it customized look.

In case of Joomla, it needs a deep technical knowledge to handles coding. It is used to design a big e.commerce site. It is supported by a huge technical group.

Web design is a very important aspect of any web presence whether personal or business.

Web architecture is a ample appellation accoutrement abounding altered abilities and disciplines that are acclimated in the assembly and aliment of websites.[1] The altered areas of web architecture include; web clear design, interface design, authoring; including standardised cipher and proprietary software, user acquaintance architecture and seek engine optimization.

I personally prefer joomla out of these 2, but I've recently been using a different platform, EXAI, that uses a drag and drop cms, which is very quick and easy.

Well, I preferred CMS Wordpress because its very easy to use and you can easily manage all the plugins that you needed.
