raghu_gh - August 11, 2009 - 06:00
Hi,
I am running my educational portal www.adhyapak.com on joomla. I have built lot of content like listing of all schools and colleges using Joomla SOBI Component.
I am facing lot of errors. some body suggested me to migrate to drupal.
Is it possible to tranfer whole content to drupal. Since building again is practically time consuming.
Is there any advantage of migrating to drupal or shall i continue using joomla as joomla planning for joomla 1.6 version.
Please suggest me.
Thanks
Raghavendra

Drupal advantages
Yes, for example: CCK, Views, Taxonomy, Boost, SEO, flexibility, etc...
Drupal has more potential, but Joomla is easier for beginners though. Some books like O'Reilly's "Using Drupal" are useful to greatly shorten the learning time.
Keep Joomla
Hi,
Joomla have now advanced CCK (jSeblod CCK for example) capabilities, SEF and others.
Joomla extensions are more professionniel than Drupal, but Drupal is a good CMS.
You are on Joomla, you will los a lot of time to go on Drupal for nothing.

A site like his can be
A site like his can be accomplished using either Joomla or Drupal, it's what the site owner feels comfortable with using and how much time he/she has to devote to their project.
But i'm interested to know why you think Joomla extensions are more professional than Drupal modules?

Hi duvien, Thanks for your
Hi duvien,
Thanks for your post. I'm aggree with you about capabilities with Drupal or Joomla.
It's just that there is more professional publishers of Joomla extensions.
That's why you find many commercial extensions in Joomla community. It may be unfortunate but this ensures too a quality.
For example, the drupal CCK concept was smart but there is today some Joomla extensions more powerfull that CCK drupal.
Best Regards.
Majority of Drupal developers
Majority of Drupal developers are professionals too. Just because one don't sell modules commercially does not mean they aren't professionals.
Often there is a myth that commercial products = quality. Drupal and Joomla are free, does this mean they aren't quality products? because everyone can contribute to towards it?
Anyway, this is getting a bit off-topic now so i'll stop there.
I'm excited and wanted to see how powerful the CCK version is for Joomla compare to Drupal but on your demo site i'm not able to test it. Complains about not having a license. Is there any way to test drive jSeblod CCK on your demo site?
Thanks,
Ok
Hi duvien,
Sorry the license file was deleted, it's ok now.
I complety agree with you about the quality and of course there is too great profesionnals on Drupal (we work too on Drupal). But at the same time, when a society can have a little return on investment, the society can continue to develop and more quickly than in free software.
Many thanks for your feedback with contact form on jseblod.com. Your mind as drupal specialist will be very appreciated.
Best Regards.
Thanks for Your feedback
