In their own words
Joomla
Joomla! is a free, open-source content management system for publishing website content. It supports multiple users with different permission levels to create, edit, archive, publish, and distribute material; an Access Control List manages users, groups, and permissions. Editorial workflows, custom content types, multilingual content, a media library, and SEO tools are included. Core publishing features include article management, scheduled publishing, versioning, metadata, keywords, and search-engine-friendly URLs. Joomla! is used for corporate and small business sites, intranets, publications, e-commerce, government and community websites, and personal homepages. Its MVC web application framework can also be used independently. The Extensions Directory offers thousands of extensions, most available free under the GPL, and the download site offers more than 70 accredited language packages. Joomla! lists built-in two-factor authentication. It provides community forums, online documentation, an issue tracker, and in-app contextual help. A fully functional free website is available through launch.joomla.org without requiring users to install the CMS themselves.
