Seven Criteria for Evaluating Open-Source Content Management Systems

Open Source Content Management Systems are on the rise these days. If you scan the web you will find hundreds of open source CMSes, right from Moodle to Druple. Linux Journal has published a list of Seven Criteria for Evaluating Open-Source Content Management Systems:

1. Web application platform
2. Software license
3. Stability and development activity
4. User community
5. Documentation and source code
6. Web standards, accessibility
7. Suitability and usability

In Abhijeet Chavan's own words "It used to be that you needed to search high and low for an open-source application that would suit your needs. Nowadays, it still takes time to find the right application, but that's because you need to sort through so many bad or inappropriate ones before finding the one that is right for you."
