Best Wordpress Options
& Their
Pros And Cons
Wordpress is a great CMS and is as popular; however it’s not for everyone because of its learning steep, the security issues, and limited capabilities. Fortunately there are a number of alternatives available, from the free and open source to paid professional services.
Let us take a look at few of those alternatives:
Tumblr
There’s a lot in common between tumblr and wordpress. Both have thousands of themes and templates and both boast an Alexa range in the sub-30 range. Tumblr is chiefly a micro-blogging platform, using for sharing short posts. Its community favors visual content over lengthy word posts. It is extremely easy to use and is out of the box.
The Good:
Twitter-like follow feature makes it easy for anyone to get real updates of the blog
Image rich content can be shared because of its rich visual design
Huge community of users sharing content Very easy to use, even for technology
illiterates Does not require web hosting Huge library of templates and themes
The bad:
Limited customization options Not appropriate for long-form content Lacks third-party plug-in support Difficult to maintain multiple posts
Mainly used by bloggers and brands that needs an additional platform to post visual contents, and its absolutely free.
Joomla:
Joomla isn’t a blogging platform its’ an enterprise-grade CMS that can power anything from amateur blog to ecommerce stores with thousands of products to display. Like Wordpress it’s based on PHP and has a robust list of third-party plug-ins and themes.
The Good:
Powerful admin-controls In-depth customization options Active developer community which
produces vast plug-in library Plenty of documentation and tutorials
available online to assist the users Hundreds of striking themes Easy to develop

Difficult to use and set-up Admin-panel can be complex Templates and themes are not as rick as
Wordpress Requires Web hosting
Concrete5:
Concrete5 is surprisingly easy to use. It’s not as popular as Wordpress, however, delivers exceptional functionality when the content is published on the World Wide Web by the developer. This CMS allows the users to edit the content on published. It also provides version management for every page, just like Wikipedia.
The Good:

Huge collection of free add-ons Free of cost core system Well organized layout and simple to use
interface
The Bad:

whole website Harder to find its developers
Drupal
After Joomla and Wordpress, Drupal is third most preferred CMS used online. It is a robust CMS based on PHP with an active community that keeps creating new plug-ins and extensions. It is more developer-friendly than Joomla. It’s also more scalable and faster than Wordpress and Joomla.

pretty as Wordpress
