Solution for building a web portal

Hi all,

I am new here and would like to know what is the best software to use in building a web portal?

Is IBM, Oracle, BEA is good? or open source solution like Apache, JBoss, Liferay etc. is better? Any recommendation?

I am looking for software that can build blog function in portal as well.

Thanks.

Talking

depends on what you want - if you want a community website where lots of people have access to post events, frontpage articles, blogs, etc then use Drupal. (www.drupal.org ).

If you're looking for more of a single-user based system that has lots of members, but they do not blog or are not allwoed to post on the front page and, then use Joomla. (www.joomla.org ).

These, to me and lots of other people, are considered today's top free CMSes. Don't bother with paying money for a CMS unless you or your company has too much money, in that case, hire my company to do it for you (www.societysites.com )

Hi Piston2, Do you mind to let me know the cost to hire a developer/consultant in developing a portal using open source?
