CMS Researching

Our team, Kukui Cup Tech 1 was tasked to research different types of CMS for our project. The CMS' we looked at was Anahita, dotCMS, Drupal, Elgg, Joomla!, MODx, Ning, Pligg, SilverStripe, and Wordpress. These CMS' are platforms that help create a website, and what we are looking for is a platform that can be easily created and accommodate the things that is needed for the website, which is Google Gadgets, forums, and charts.



By looking at the above picture, we compared all of the CMS' based on the listed criteria. What we came down to was the 4 green highlighted CMS'. Each of us will take on one of these four and present them to our teacher of what the CMS can do and what it can support.

The CMS that I am working on is SilverStripe. It is a very nice looking platform and from the looks of it very easy to use. I am excited to work with this platform, and next week I will show you what I have learned.
