Checking over all the web applications resources for vulnerabilities. > > I ran a web hosting company for over 10 years and have created hundreds of websites using Joomla's framework. ----- ### "Joomla Review" — 4.0/5 > **Curt** | *5 December 2024* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The layout and workflow is easy to use. Notifications for updates are excellent. > > **Cons**: The additional vendors are not always up to date. > > My overall experience with Joomla has been very positive. ----- ### "Getting long in the tooth" — 3.0/5 > **Thom** | *27 November 2024* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10 > > **Pros**: PHP based. Large community of users. Reputation for security. > > **Cons**: Wild west of plug-in vendors. Lack of built-in page creation model. Painful transition from 3.x > > I've used Joomla for several projects over multiple years. At this point, I use it out of familiarity rather than preference. It's too complex to be suited to building a small business website. Perhaps it's a best fit for a publication of some sort. Today, there are so many quicker and simpler ways to build most website needs, I feel like it might be a bit of a dinosaur. ----- ### "Joomla has a great wide range of capabilities and features" — 5.0/5 > **Kathryn** | *27 January 2025* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Joomla is robust in it’s flexibility for a wide range of uses for developing even complex websites. If you are looking for a wide range of capabilities this is great software choice. > > **Cons**: Using Joomla requires having a stronger background in knowing how to modify the site’s structure and development so there is a little more of a learning curve. > > Once you become more familiar with the user interface it became easier to create the functions needed for my website. ----- ### "SEO-friendly CMS" — 3.0/5 > **Sofia** | *6 February 2025* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Simple CMS yet flexible and with many community plugins. Very useful for simple websites or blogs. Its rich text editor has many accessibility features that help authors to create SEO-friendly articles. > > **Cons**: Integration can sometimes be difficult, specially if you try to use old or unsupported plugins, then you'd need PHP expertise on board. In general, having coding experience helps. ----- Page: 1 / 26\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.in/software/161648/joomla?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.in/software/161648/joomla) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
