Compare Pimcore vs. Bolt CMS

Pimcore is a CMS whose development started in 2009. Originally the Content Management System was built on the Zend PHP Framework, but the system will switch to the Symfony full stack framework.

Bolt CMS is a lightweight CMS built with the Silex Microframework. It is well built and a great alternative for developers looking for a modern PHP system to replace WordPress, for example.

• Solid feature set beyond regular CMS features
• Commercial backing
• Quality codebase

• Clean architecture built with Silex, very easy to learn
• Standard components for Forms and Database
• Clean purpose, not trying to solve every problem

• New product version can be risky
• Limited adoption
• Can be too "heavy" for simple sites

• Developer availability compared to WP
• Extensibility for multilingual, etc. depends on extensions
• Limited community size
