As a result, will have to re-order manufacturing site, only to transfer it to a more popular system. In addition, CMS samopisnye rarely of high quality, since the main purpose developer is not developing properly CMS, and website development. Also because of the relatively low prevalence of such systems, the limited development of a Web site studio, they were not tested, so that may contain bugs and vulnerabilities. If no problems found so far, it probably means that the system is not too common, and not something that bugs do not. Commercial boxed system and free distributed by CMS, in most cases allow you to create sites of any complexity, often free products are of higher quality. You should not believe the developers of commercial CMS, that free products are made by amateurs in their spare time without receiving any money for it.
Popular Free products are designed by professionals who simply chose a slightly different business model. Systems themselves are free, but developers still receive the income, and at times considerable. Most often, proceeds go to advertising, sponsorship, sale or writing custom plug-ins, as well as from paid consultation. Lack of support for the free systems are also not quite true. On the one hand, many developers have paid consultations, although virtually all systems are being developed abroad, so that the Russian language to get advice is unlikely to succeed. On the other hand, Russian-speaking community formed for each of the popular system, ready to help when problems arise, and completely free. In complex cases, you can always find a specialist who can give advice and paid, if the selected system is fairly common.
If this is not about consultation, and the correction of errors, such work is performed equally for both commercial and free systems. When you want to modify the system to implement non-standard features, it also can be done for both commercial CMS, and for free, but in the first case revision will cost significantly more. It should be noted that the actual development of the site using the free CMS often cheaper than when selecting a commercial system, since in the latter case often need specialists, certified developers. When equally qualified professionals such demand higher pay than those who work with free systems. The choice of system should be produce, exploring its possibilities and the total cost of development and support the site. In general, commercial systems and open-source CMS provide approximately equal opportunities, although free of more oriented to support the more common functions, and commercial systems often provide support for unique features. In any case, choose the system that are used only for site development a web studio, often impractical. On the main criteria for choosing CMS described in the second part of this article.
