During the past few weeks, I have been quietly updating CMS Report's CMS Focus page. CMS Focus is a list of the top 30 Web applications representing what I see as the Web applications of today and tomorrow which interest me the most. In a world where niche CMS news sites try to cover it all for their readers, I feel one of the strengths of CMSReport.com is limiting our focus on a certain number of CMS. The CMS on this list are applications I recommend site owners first look at before moving into the deeper waters of content management and social software.
Recently added to this list of content management systems are Ektron, FatWire, ocPortal, and Sitecore. The new additions are heavily weighted toward enterprise content management systems and are a reflection of my shifting focus from Web CMS for the Internet to those applications that run on an organization's intranet. Don't worry though, I still plan on talking about some of our favorite Web CMS such as Drupal, Joomla!, mojoPortal, and SilverStripe as I'm broadening not limiting my interests.
I bumped five CMS off the list and placed them into the "Hall of Fame". Those CMS no longer being listed under CMS Focus include SMF, OpenEdit, eGroupWare, e107, and dotCMS.

Idealware is providing online a report on open source content management systems by comparing Wordpress, Joomla!, Drupal, and Plone. This 60-page independent Idealware report in PDF format provides both an introduction to the topic and a very detailed comparison of the four systems. The report also includes their new directory of the consultants and firms who help nonprofit create websites and implement these Content Management Systems.
The analysis in this report is excellent and provides my favorite type of comparison between content management systems, fair and balanced. The report doesn't try to rank for you which open source CMS is number one but instead intends to provide you the information you need to determine which CMS is best for you and your project.
This guide even has a small section giving other CMS options besides the four mentioned open source content management systems. If you're a mid-sized to large organization that prefers propriety software over open source software, the report even makes a small mention of well known CMS such as Hot Banana, Ektron, CommonSpot and Sitecore. This report clearly shows that the authors understand the type of analysis needed for site owners to pick the best CMS for their organization. This report is current and does not rely on past perceptions of a particular CMS.
The Idealware report comparing WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, and Plone is available for a free download after providing some basic registration information.
Sponsorship at CMS Report continues to grow. This is good news because somebody has to help pay for the servers. If you would like to be included as a sponsor of CMSReport.com, please consider taking advantage of the sponsorship opportunities currently available.
