Customize your Drupal CMS effectively


Content Management Systems
The basic function of a content management system (CMS) is to easily manage and present information on web sites. Content management systems differ in their features. While a simple CMS may have a few basic features, an enterprise CMS offers an extensive suite of complex and powerful features.

What Is Drupal
Drupal is a powerful content management platform. Drupal is free, open source, and powers millions of websites worldwide including some of the biggest sites on the web, such as The Economist, The White House, etc. Drupal allows you to easily organize, manage and publish your content. Behind Drupal's power and popularity lies its ability to allow an endless variety of Drupal customization to suit your particular context. Drupal is supported by one of the largest developer communities around the world who have enriched Drupal over the years with thousands of powerful and versatile Drupal add-ons. These Drupal add-ons make creation of powerful and dynamic websites a lot faster and easier. 

When to Use Drupal
One is faced with a number of choices while selecting a content management system. Open source content management systems like Drupal, WordPress, and Joomla are some of the most popular choices today. Different content management systems have different content presentation paradigms, target use scenarios, community support, etc. Depending on the particular context, one CMS may hold an edge over the other. Drupal, for example, is relatively harder to learn than, say, WordPress. However, Drupal offers one of the most sophisticated developer interfaces which enables one to create highly complex and dynamic sites. Drupal sites have much greater flexibility for being scaled up to any level of complexity. Drupal powers millions of websites today – from personal blogs to enterprise applications.
