What to Know About the New Drupal CMS

Pedalo published a blog post titled “The New Drupal CMS: What You Need to Know”, explaining the distinction between Drupal Core and the newer Drupal CMS initiative. While Drupal Core is the foundational framework downloaded from the official site, Drupal CMS is a pre-configured package that includes selected modules, themes, and settings aimed at simplifying the setup process for site builders. 

The post outlines the advantages of Drupal CMS, such as faster setup, user-friendly features, and the flexibility and security of Core. It also notes trade-offs like potential system bloat and the ongoing need for technical expertise in more complex builds. 

Pedalo also breaks down the cost considerations, emphasizing that while Drupal is free and open-source, users should factor in expenses for hosting, development, support, and training. It cautions that some official Drupal CMS pages are tied to Acquia, a premium hosting provider with a limited free trial, but stresses that users can host Drupal CMS wherever they prefer
