Joomla's dashboard is straightforward to use and understand.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Joomla does not only offer to host your website but also allows you to adopt many important features for the website. Joomla has the advantage of being incredibly easy to customize. Joomla uses extensions and templates with great care. While the extensions enable users to add new features to their websites, the templates allow users to choose how their Joomla website will look.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Setting up the deployment the way you want it to takes time. With beginners, getting started is frequently tricky. Although there are countless possibilities, they must be introduced through modules and components. It could be extremely complicated, difficult for users to discern between modules, and have unclear details. Making matters worse is having to complete tasks in several locations depending on what you do.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Without a doubt, it is a reliable option for any company needing a reliable and scalable system. It is pretty fascinating, especially once you grasp all of the functions, and the fact that it is completely quick makes it stand out among applications. It was entirely painless for me to work on and with.

A complex and powerful CMS.

Likeliness to Recommend

10 / 10

What differentiates Joomla! from other similar products?

You can do anything with Joomla, it also allows you not only to control which users can access which pages but also to create custom groups and have unique access per group. WordPress can't do that without a third-party plugin.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

It is easy to install. It takes a few minutes from installation, it has a large number of modules that are easy to install, configure and use, its code is highly manipulable, it performs automatic updates very easily with the click of a button. Vulnerabilities are quickly patched with push notifications.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The learning curve is a bit steep. The jooma community is smaller than other popular CMS's therefore it lacks as many options for third-party developers, which means it can be a bit more difficult to find the right extension for what you need to accomplish.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

It is a CMS for all kinds of projects, even if you need to scale in the future, it has the ability to control access to different articles, categories, or even different components, making it a great tool for businesses of all sizes.

Pros

  • Performance Enhancing
  • Enables Productivity
  • Trustworthy
  • Unique Features

There are other options out there and the odds are that any one of them would be a better fit. Don't rush the decision.
