Joomla!和WordPress是 目前比较流行的开源CMS解决方案，但两者的区别是：Joomla!是想“尽可能满足你的所有需要”，而WordPress更似是有CMS功能的博客平 台。WordPress可以让新手一步到位的建立静态页面，无需去改动代码；但Joomla!必须要一位熟练用户才行。作为具有相似功能的开源项目，两者 在可用性上却是天上地下。

PlayingWithWire详细比较了Joomla!和WordPress的可用性， 包括如何创建有图像的博客日志和如何创建静态页面的过程，比较了两者的控制面板、菜单和配置。文章认为“如果Joomla!是Linux，那么 WordPress就是Mac OS X。WordPress也许只能提供Joomla! 90%的功能，但在多数情况下，WordPress更容易使用，能更快的建立和运行。”Joomla!论坛也讨论了该文。

‘If Joomla! is Linux, then WordPress is Mac OS X. WordPress might offer only 90% of the features of Joomla!, but in most cases WordPress is both easier to use and faster to get up and running.’

Over the course of the last few years, I’ve been in charge of putting up a number of websites for various companies, often as favors for friends. In most cases, I’ve ended up using one out of two solutions: Joomla! and WordPress. While both of these projects have evolved greatly over the last few years, they are vastly different. Joomla! has always been intended as a ‘fit-all-your-possible-needs’-kind of CMS solution, while WordPress was developed as a blog with CMS capabilities. Recently WordPress has opened up to allow its users to set up a site with static-only material (with the option of a blog-page), without having to hack the code. Hence it’s one step closer to being a direct competitor to Joomla!. More >
