WordPress vs. ExpressionEngine
Posted on September 11, 2009 at 4:35pm / Filed under: ExpressionEngine, Screwing Around / 4 comments
I'll keep this short. I hear a lot of people and companies argue that WordPress is the greatest CMS for building dynamic Web sites. It's free, it's easy to use, and it's got a very active (and very talented) community… and those are all completely valid points. Lately though, I feel like I keep hearing arguments comparing WordPress to other systems, including ExpressionEngine, in terms of functionality, ease of use, etc. That's good and all, but having used numerous CMS's in my time, and after listening to the arguments, I can really only come to one conclusion… and what better way to present that conclusion than as a downloadable desktop wallpaper! So who wins in WordPress vs. ExpressionEngine? I'm afraid it's a disqualification.

Perhaps one of the most beautiful things about ExpressionEngine is the fact that it can be extended with custom plugins, modules, and extensions. There is an extremely talented and passionate developer community that creates some great addons to make this fantastic piece of software even better. If you're new to ExpressionEngine (or even if you're a seasoned veteran), you may want to check out these sites so that you can avoid those head slapping moments of "I just wasted 10 hours trying to do that, and there was already a plugin that does it for me!"

Without a doubt, ExpressionEngine is by far my favorite CMS of all time. It's extremely powerful, yet flexible enough to serve a variety of purposes (insert Michael Scott-esque "that's what she said" comment). It never fails to surprise me that just about every time I say "I wish EE had feature X" I discover soon after that a) it does have that feature, or b) I can find a way to make it happen.
