Compare eZ Platform vs. Grav

eZ Platform is a CMS built on the Symfony Framework. It is powerful and a total rewrite of the eZ Publish system in development from 1999.

Grav is a fresh flat-file database which is easy to install. It uses a number of Symfony components and is very fast to get started with.

• A full implementation on the Symfony Full Stack Framework
• Fully featured out of the box, media library, multilingual, multisite...
• Integrated Solr powered search ensures scalability

• Fast to install and get started with
• Extensible via Plugins, Skeletons and Themes
• A fresh codebase, no PHP4 cruft here

• Limited number of ready made extensions
• Some bugs in the UI layer in the first version
• Learning curve for "old school" PHP developers without OOP experience

• Limited use cases due to flat-file approach
• Limited developer base
• Needs more work to round the edges in real-world use
