Our first company website was built with Joomla. Eventually, we gave up on Joomla and migrated our site to Wordpress. Here's my review:

Pros:

• For a technically experienced site developer, it has features, functions, modules & components that offer greater control over the site creation process

Cons:

• The backend CMS was very difficult to use
• Bugs were then not fixed fast enough
• There were far too many reported security issues

[livelifefullest]

Pros: easy navigation / free tools / ready to use
Cons: not that fast / layout
