Drupal is Better than Other CMS

Choosing a suitable content management system is crucial for any business. If you want to boost your internet presence, you need to improve your visibility, which means your website needs to be constantly updated. With the help of a content management system, you can not only improve the visibility of the website, but also perform other things to further your brand on the internet platform.

When time and cost are the deciding factors to choose a CMS, Drupal easily fits the bill. There are several reasons why Drupal is considered to be the best CMS currently available in the market. It definitely is better than many others present and here are 5 reasons why we think Drupal is better.

Control and Customization

Drupal is powerful, and you have the total control in your hands. When compared with WordPress (which is regarded as an easy-to-use CMS), Drupal may seem difficult for the beginner. However with time, Drupal development has seen numerous changes which has made it easy for the user without compromising on its powerful features. Whether you want to run a simple blog site or an interactive platform, Drupal can fit like a glove to your demands. No wonder, everyone right from the White House to LinkedIn, Tesla, the American Red Cross (and many more) are using this platform.

Security

Security is a sore point among website developers. Every CMS seems to have issues with security. In spite of all security concerns, Drupal scores slightly more points on this regard as it offers enterprise level security and site scale. Since Drupal is an open source CMS, there are thousands of developers tirelessly working to fix bugs and improve the security. Many government websites are built on Drupal which proves that its security is stringent and cannot be easily breached.

Performance

A website is only successful when the end-users can use it without waiting for the pages to load. If this is a concern, Drupal outshines others quite effectively. The CMS is technically more advanced than WordPress and Joomla, without using too many of the available system resources. All of this ensures that Drupal’s performance is very good. The response time is also faster than many other websites. Though plug-ins and other add-ons can affect the performance, a good Drupal development company in India can easily fix such issues.

SEO Friendly

Drupal is built using clean codes and has powerful modules. Both these factors make Drupal SEO friendly. Though there are several ways to boost the SEO of a CMS (by installing third party SEO modules), its core structure is so clean in itself that websites automatically get good rankings.

Good for e-Commerce

When you want to build an online store, Drupal is easily the better CMS for this job. There are several eCommerce modules and payment gateways that can easily be added to the core Drupal framework. Everything around Drupal is a breeze – payment gateway, shopping carts, logistics handling, customer CRM, etc.
