I am using Drupal 7 as a CMS for
my blog / web site.
I used to use
Wordpress, and it is day and night to Drupal in almost everything. WP is way easier to get things started and going. Back-end UI makes sense and easy to use, but a lot less flexible when I want to tweak things outside of what WP or its plugin already provided in the package. Many large corporation like NY times, Forbes, UPS, Sony are using WP. (complete list is
here.) That tell how well the system is.
They got a free solution offering
here. if you want to get your blog up and run fast. I think WP is one of the best CMS out there.
On the other hand,
Drupal 7 was very hard for me to learn at first. Back end is overwhelming, but once I know how it works I can do so many thing on my own. I like it a lot more than WP now because it is almost limitless on what I can do to my blog. To me it is one of the most flexible opensource CMS we have.
they also have free solutions offering
here. and this is a
list of large businesses using Drupal.
To elaborate the diffrence between the two, to me WP is like the P mode, and Drupal is the M mode. [Edit: May be M is too little to compair to Drupal. it could be the whole program wheel with no P and green mode, I should say!]
Since both have free hosting service offered, it might be a good idea to try both and see what fit you most.
