Dear All,
We are planning to implement a "Content Management System" to manage the content in our organisation. Please let me know of any good CMS application that we can use.
Please also indicate its user-friendliness, cost, ease of implementation, if ready-to-use tutorials are available, size of content it can handle, number of users. etc.
Kindly share your experiences with the same.

Well, as such - I do not have hands-on experience on CMS. However, it appears that Drupal <http://drupal.org/> is the best among Open Source Softwares. According to http://www.packtpub.com/award The top ones are: 1) Drupal <http://drupal.org/>- Often compared with Joomla/Mambo, Drupal is a solid, high quality platform that are claimed to be user friendly and well liked by web developers. 2) Joomla <http://www.joomla.org/> - One of the most popular and commonly used CMS today. 3) CMS made simple <http://www.cmsmadesimple.org/> - A much simpler solution that is fast to learn, easy to use. --Sukhdev Singh, NIC.

Dear all, There are many good open source CMSs available. You can simply download them and give a try. You may have look on almost all CMSs available freely--- http://www.opensourcecms.com/ According to my opinion, best CMS for a library is Joomla because of the provision of Community Building (You can make users of library the member of your system). You may give try to Joomla--- http://www.joomla.org/ DRTC has taken a project of UNAIDS to develop a portal for NGOs working in the area of HIV/AIDS and Joomla is used in back end. You may like to have a look on the gateway--- http://www.ngogateway.org
