WordPress vs. Drupal for Complex Sites

Greg Boggs

Most of us know the assumption that WordPress is for blogs. But, over the past few years, WordPress has started to establish itself as an enterprise platform. Meanwhile, Drupal 8 has also made great progress. So, how do the latest versions compare when buildings complex sites? As an expert in both platforms, I will compare them feature by feature for large projects.

In this session, you'll get a demo of the best that WordPress has to offer so we can use this information to help improve Drupal. And, I'll share some areas where WordPress can improve, so you can understand more clearly where Drupal is exceptional. For example, Drupal is ahead with amazing features like content migration and testing. But, WordPress has impressive media management and revision control.

You need not have WordPress experience to learn from this session, but an understanding of Drupal's core feautres will be helpful. In the longer format, I can include the best contributed modules and plugins going beyond just the core platforms. By the end of the session, you'll have a detailed understanding of the differences between the two platforms.
