    Most Polished CMS?

    In your opinion, what is the most polished looking C<S? Have you tried any that look extremely impressive?

    I've been impressed by some wordpress themes, Joomla's default is nice, but Concrete5 is pretty amazing, as is Dolphin, but was wondering if anyone had seen any that wowed them.

    I always like Joomla cause the amount of applications and large community behind it supporting it.

    create and design your own themes on top of either drupal, joomla or wordpress. Those CMS are pretty popular.

    I prefer Drupal.
    Joomla is very complicated, and Wordpress is too simplistic for my needs.

    Wordpress is the best, the most easy to customize and design.

    I always liked e107. Been using it for nearly 7-8 years.

    Joomla, Mambo and Drupal are the biggest 3 though.

    One thing to keep in mind is that how a CMS looks has nothing to do with how it works. All the good CMS's have some sort of templating procedure to separate the design from the code. I prefer Joomla! personally for the CMS because of its object-oriented MVC architecture. It is the cleanest code. For a simple site with just text and pictures and limited other functionality, WordPress is very good and has a pretty small footprint. Drupal has a few more features than Joomla! and may be easier to style, but its architecture is lacking in comparison (imho).

    I agree with CoreyMade - wordpress as well. It may seem unusual as it is blog system, but loaded with dozens of free extensions you can make great cms from it. And its really simple and intuitive to use since last versions' GUI update. If you dont have basic developer skills you can hire someone to make Wordpress fits your needs - its easy to find experienced Wordpress developers. Personally as developer i hate Joomla and Drupal - cause mess in code and constant headache during custom module development.

    Jommla for me, easy configuration. Just my 2 cents.

    For our workplace and the actual company, we use a custom built high-end software developed to our specification coupled with SMSold to track our inventory, sales, appointments, etc. Local, international, and global tracking at our fingertips.

    Drupal is nice.

    I'm new with Joomla, and it took me a while to get the hang of it but I think it's the best..

    The WordPress is the most popular for my customers (and myself) - it's easy for them to use, easy for me to install, easy to customise and easy to expand/upgrade.
