Concrete 5 is better than Joomla and Drupal content management systems

Open source visitor management check-in kiosks are the way these days to ensure that your customers can update, manage and upload content when it comes to their websites. I have been using Joomla for many years and until recently I discovered Concrete 5, I used to think that Joomla was the best. Concrete 5 is not only that customers can change the content, but the entire website even with just a few clicks of a button.

C5 (Concrete 5) Quick view

Concrete 5 is very easy to use and is very important when it comes to a CMS site so that the customer can easily update the content or add new content or even change the site as a whole. Even a 5-year-old could use this system. Only the CSS theme remains for the professional developer to edit or change.

o Very easy to edit pages with a page editing feature. By clicking on the areas of the page where you want to edit or add content and see live how your editing affects the page.

o It has a very nice toolbar at the top with multiple features and shortcuts for easy editing.

o File management facilitates search and ordering of files.

o Add-ons can be added directly through the automated panel development panel without coding issues or having to use long FTP operations.

o The top permissions system gives you much more control over which users can access which files, change or how they are used.

o If stuck, you can easily click the help icon and get live help through a help console that appears. Write your question or keywords and pop-ups easily.

o It has a friendly URL function to produce SEF URL (Search Engine Friendly).

o It also has a WYSIWYG spell check editor.

o It also comes with the integrated picnik.com image editor.

Concrete 5 comes with many integrated blocks (add-ons) that make it easier for the customer or site creator to customize the site according to their business needs. Many of the additions are free, and it's worth spending the money.

I will say that the only thing missing from the C5 is the number of themes available for free, but I'm sure this will grow over time as more and more C5 developers like it. Adding a favicon.ico is very easy, I must say, through the configuration of the entire dashboard.

The C5 also has an ingenious built-in statistics feature widget that appears across the dashboard. It is easy to see more detailed visitors and statistics and the performance of your site.

With C5, you have the best of both worlds when it comes to blogging and development, and I can only see the user-friendly menus as the best CMS platform with time and more development. You can build and run a great site. And best of all, even the site owner comes and runs without having to be a professional web developer.
