Strengths: e107 is a great CMS with tons of features and a great community.
Weaknesses: Lack of main stream attension.
Strengths: We prefer this over Joomla and e107 when delivering solutions to our clients. It’s robust, very easy to manipulate and the developer community is second-to-none!
Theming (both free and premium) is in abundance so inspiration is not far away.
As a business and CMS solutions provider, we are suprised (in our CMS experience), why is e107 not more recognised?
Weaknesses: We feel that’s it’s only in 2009 that e107 it getting the professional kudos it deserves. It’s so much more than a community club site engine!
