OpenSource CMS sandbox to play around

<< CMS Selection - EZ Publish or TYPO3 ? | CMSMatrix - the Content Management Comparison Tool >>

Some time ago I found CMSMATRIX an extremely valuable resource to compare 100+ content management products…

Just today I came across the complementary site you can use as soon as you have filtered out the two,three really matching products for your purpose and try to play with the CMS interface on OpenSourceCMS

OpenSource CMS sandbox to play around

1) Perfomance of TYPO3 can be a problem to.
EZ looks like a little bit more resource intensive.

2)TYPO3 is much more widely used then EZ in Russia.

3) OOP:
The important difference is that eZ was done in Object Oriented Programming (OOP) style even on "end user level".
They speak about "objects", "inheritance" etc.
In TYPO3 we speak about "pages" and "content elements".
So TYPO3 is more widely used then eZ, because it is more easy to understand to non programming persons.

I start some discussions on SitePoint.
It was like "provocation" to know more about eZ :-)

4) a bit more "dirty" hacker's stuff... not as well marketed as EZ
100% agree with you. Only now TYPO3 go to "TYPO3 Assossiation" etc

5) TYPO3 is more user friendly in BackEnd
Only in last version of EZ I see the same user friendly interface solution like in TYPO3 - "tree of pages in left frame"
