CMS Evaluation Summary I got an interesting comment on one of my blog posts recently.

Matt, I'd be curious to hear why Virtuas is using Drupal and not the same Java stack they advertise on their home page (i.e. one or more of Geronimo/Tomcat/Spring/Hibernate/MyFaces/JBoss). I realize the standard answer is "because Java is for heavyweight sites and PHP is the right tool for the job" but I'm wondering if there was more to the decision that just that.

My Reply:

The reason we chose Drupal was from an evaluation that I did - where I compared a number of open source CMS solutions:

Drupal was simply the best tool for the job when we were looking for a solution.
