Drupal Wins Again as the Best CMS for Building Web Sites

Packt’s annual Open Source Content Management System (CMS) Award was won by Drupal again this year. Drupal also took the best Open Source Content Management System written on a PHP/MySQL platform.

Drupal won this award in both the popular vote and the judges selection. The judges cited improvements to installation, updates, breadth of features in modules, and how Drupal handles errors in these processes. Of special note was Drupal's use of social features and how those features integrate with web content management. Of course the final advantage Drupal had was the "large and hugely supportive community."

Drupal has been the platform that Artopa uses to build dynamic, flexible and extensible web site for it clients for a couple of years now and it continues to improve. The changes in Drupal 6 make it an even better tool for people to manage their web sites.
