Mamboserver or Xoops

Which one?

[morpheus83]

I am planning to make a site using a CMS for easy updating. However I am stuck between the two Mambo and Xoops. Both seem very good. I am not a PHP programmer I will be giving the job to someone else. However I would like to know which is more easier to code has more users and stuff available (Componenets etc)

Not had any experience with Mambo, but Xoops is a really nice piece of coding.

Why not give them both a try as they are both free.

try out:

They've got demos of most open source CMS's available.

I've tried out mambo... it has a steep learning curve, but lots of features. XOOPs looks pretty nice. Another hugely popular one is Typo3.

Read this as well, it'll give you an idea of what to look for in a CMS, and what might be suited to your needs:

PHPWebsite is also a nice system.
