My Joomla Review - stay away!

What do you like best? Some of the functionality of the software and the fact that its free is a bonus What do you dislike? It is not intuitive at all!!! It's very cumbersome and frustrating to use, I hated using it! What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? We used joomla to run our website. I'm not sure we realised any benefits though... Everything ended up to be a complete mess and we ended up switching to wordpress!

The installation process is super easy. And trust me -- you are not going to want to go back to any other portal. What do you dislike? Not one yet.. Using this for 3+ years. ...
