Following are features of the Drupal CMS that makes us web geeks/developers love drupal.

Multi-featured & Powerful

Drupal is a powerful CMS at core & with a strong API at its base, is extensible as a Framework. It is extremely multi-featured owing to its modular design, where you can plug in any custom functionality into its system. This enables a drupal developer like me to engage into endless possibilities in web-design & development. What makes Drupal awesome is its power to create websites by starting small and growing virtually without limitations.

The term “Open source” defines software whose source code is made publicly available. They are eligible for use & modification by users, developers subject to certain conditions.

Secure

Drupal coding adheres to strict security rules by Drupal experts and contributors. Hence, its built-in security is strong on code-level. With regards to configuration level security, Drupal offers permissions for users, terms, content, etc. With certain modules, this permission can be extended to atomic levels. There are websites with many signed in users, sites with heavy anonymous traffic, etc built using this technology. As the code & configuration is well maintained, a secure site can easily be implemented. Just Google for sites made in drupal and you will be overwhelmed by the quality & quantity of sites developed using drupal.

Plug-ins: Modules, Themes, Distributions

Drupal is a modular piece of software. Its functionality can be extended by adding modules, themes & distributions. A module is used to add certain functionality. A theme can be used to enhance site design. I as a drupal freelancer tend to use very minimal base themes upon which needed design & functionality can be implemented. Apart from this, Drupal offers distributions, which is drupal inclusive of certain modules/themes readily tailored to deliver certain domain based sites – ecommerce, blogging platform, job portals, etc.

Administration & Organization

Once a site is developed in drupal, it allows website owners to add & modify the content easily, without having to understand HTML or other technologies. It is upon a drupal developer how he/she develops a site that is user-friendly for the website owner. Drupal offers administration & organization of content, users, tagging terms (taxonomy) & comments out of the box. This can be further extended by many other helpful modules.

Support: Community, Documentation, Support Blogs & Forums

Drupal is a community driven technology. Drupal has a persistent & enthusiastic community of thousands of developers, who contribute to the source code (in terms of the core itself further extended by modules & themes), documentation & support for this software. A lot of issues are raised & solutions are provided in the community itself. Due to the huge community support of site-builders, developers & themers, you will always be able to find people to maintain your website.
