I used Both of them, drupal for a community sites or a sites that need some magical ( with view and cck ) And I used Wordpress to optimized earn money from blogs
Both of them are totally different. Drupal is a CMS software and can be setup to be like WordPress. WordPress is just a blogging software and can't be setup to be a CMS. I have used both and liked them both. Drupal is much more complicated to setup and learn in comparing to WordPress. If you are looking for a blogging app, then use WP. It is much better.
Wordpress is more for blogging while Drupal is more for profile and professionals. That doesn't mean Drupal is better though as each serves their purposes.
I think the pole should ask about the benefit or advantage of them because they are different WP is out of the box ready for use and easily customize CMS. Drupal needs programing work- but great for complicated sites I don't like them, but i use both. what's the best cms for SEO ? didn't found one yet...still looking to find it
I use both of them and like WP more. With Drupal you need "milions" of extra modules and then even many dependent modules of those modules. In the end, whn you finished your site, no one knows what you really need! I think this is the lack of Drupal. WP is nice and easy...
so with this reasoning you must prefer TV to the internet, TV is simpler, you simply press the button and have pictures, with the internet you need to click and remember things.
I've used WP and it seems alittle too bloggy for my taste, currently trying out Drupal, alittle complicated but I'm sure I'll understand it soon.
its really true. wp wastes a lot of cpu usage & browsing performance decrees day by day . page come very slow
I've used both on several sites... the biggest decision maker for me comes down to permissions. If i need heavy user permission settings then i use drupal.. If not, wordpress for sure. Drupal is a bitch to design.
