While eZ publish isn't included in the comparison list of systems, I think people in the community and at eZ publish may find this report interesting. Open Source Content Management Systems: An Argumentative Approach "This report evaluates seven open source CMS products. The comparison is based on eight categories as seen from a business perspective. These categories are; applications, data repository, deployment, integration, revision control, user interface, user management and workflow. Each category is scored from 0 to 10 points and the overall score is determined based on the average of all categories."

I'm a bit curious to why eZ publish was rejected in the first report. Does anyone know?

Would like to know the reason too :-(
Possible arguments:
- the scope of the study is for small, easy to setup systems, ez publish is considered for larger implementations
- the commercial nature of the OE
- the author looked at ez publish 1-2 years ago and ran away scared by the lack of docs and performance problems
- the author does not like us since we never had a summer conference in Greece/UK But ez publish is not the only "victim" :-) On a side-note: I've read quite a few comparisons, and none of them hardly goes further than scratching the surface. But the competition for ez publish is growing .... -paul -paul

I mailed the guy and the reason was simply that he didn't manage to install it.

Do you mean he had problems installing it, or he just didn't have the time to include it in his list?

It's alaways the same with that kind of report : it does no separate enterprise systems (like eZ publish) from small business systems... When you have a look at the rejected CMS you find :
- plone
- redHat CCM
- Open CMS
- Lenya So, really, that report is silly ! Those CMS, as well as eZ publish are enterprise class CMS ! And the writer doesn't even explain why he rejected those products ! Of course they are not easy to install but would he reject Oracle Portal Server just because he couldn't set it up ? Stupid report ! Francis. Francis.

I agree that the report should have included more/different systems, and separated the enterprise class systems from the small ones. That said, I think it is important to remember that there is much to be learned from the evaluation of other systems. Knowing what they have done right, and what they have done wrong can greatly improve eZ publish.

Frederik, Could eZ commision a report to evaluate different CMS products that are the perceived market leaders? I attended an Enterprise Content Managment conference last week (Linuxworld was downstairs) and was quite suprised by a number of things I saw. The biggest was that pretty much all 'Enterprise' systems ran on Windows .NET and their user interfaces were rudimentary. The intergration with the shell gave it real speed though. Paul
