    Joomla. They were the same CMS until they split a few years ago. Since then, Joomla has excelled exponentially, whereas Mambo has made little movement. IMO, Joomla is the best CMS out there right after Wordpress.

    When I made my decision, a couple of years back, I had really struggled to find enough information about the two. I chose Joomla because of its history, the passion behind it (both programmers and loyal users), and comments from other users.

    I have no clue whether it was the better decision, but I do know that it's damn powerful. There's a steep learning curve, but once you've learned it, it's easy to use.

    Some of the better add-ons also have a steep learning curve, but are worth it.

    Typo3 for me... way better and way easier once you climb the hard learning curve.

    I'd vote for Joomla. I have 3 joomla sites and have been happy with their software.
