What differentiates Joomla! from other similar products?

Joomla! was an awesome platform when it was released, and gained popularity due to its templating capabilities. It was one of a kind at a point where devs had to build CMSs and simple applications on their own.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

It was robust. I haven't used it in a while, but it never really let me down, and I was able to power a large traffic website using it.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Joomla! stayed in the past. Didn't follow WordPress steps, didn't evolve towards a less categorical approach to content administration, it stayed way too hierarchical. Also, design-wise, the templates and most communication (even the website) is not modern and is not something a modern developer would start off as of 2021.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Try something with a more modern approach, maybe with a static deployment. Unless you really need to continue using it, I think there are better alternatives out there (I would look at a JAMstack approach, maybe with a headless/decoupled CMS).

Pros

  • Respectful
  • Enables Productivity
  • Unique Features
  • Appreciates Incumbent Status

Cons

  • Slower Product Innovation
  • Inhibits Innovation
  • Less Efficient Service
