CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

If we're only concerned about CiviCRM functionality is there any advantage to using one of the CMS versus the other?

For example is it easier to make or search or layout custom fields?

Maybe features are more likely to be implemented first in one CMS?

Thanks.  Yes, that's helpful.


For the purposes I'm looking at, that points to using Drupal.  The organization I'm helping needs to switch from their ... ahem... spreadsheet  ...  to a CRM.  So I'm not looking so much for the CMS part, though I find the distribution of this as a plugin to various CMSs to be compelling.


Thanks!  Now I can setup a Drupal dev. environment and test 'er out.

Drupal gives options to use
- Webform: build complex forms to collect civi data including for multiple contacts on one form, relationships etc

So can you build a more simple form using Wordpress to collect civi data?


I assume not. 


I don't mean to be too picky.  It would just be convenient for one of my other clients.


Thanks.


(presumably I could custom code something)

Great.  Thanks
