 Re: Business catalyst or Webpress? How much will I pay?
That Joomla checklist isn't too much to worry about IMO. You're web person will know that stuff (or at least should). It's more related to hosting environments than anything.
The security problems come from not keeping updated or installing bad extensions. In the open source world, let me tell you, there are 100's of bad ones...yes they have reviews etc, but I can't tell you how many hours I've sunk into those which are just plain crap house time vampires....
If you decide to go with any of the open source CMS you just have to make sure that you stay constantly updated. This is true of closed source CMS too, but it's a bit more important with open source ones.....it's all a cost you need to take into account....one you can avoid with the Saas type solutions.
Joomla doesn't currently have updating built in, but that is coming version 1.6 which is just around the corner.
Personally, I am not aware of any e-commerce extensions for Joomla that are any good, and I wouldn't currently recommend that platform for it.....in 6 months that may be a different story tho...
