Our News > Basesys leaves other systems to bite the dust

November 18th, 2009 Andrei T
We have always known that Basesys is marginally faster than most popular open source systems out there. But by how much? We decided to put this thought to the test. We gathered the top 3 open source CMS / WMS systems out there and put them head to head against Basesys.
For the benchmarking, Apexoo Software used the AB tool (Apache Bench). This is a standard Apache benchmarking tool and comes pre-bundled with an Apache install. We also used one of the Linux machines that we have at the office, an older Dell. The results are as follows:
Basesys is:
8.6 times faster than Joomla
5.5 times faster than Wordpress
3.0 times faster than Drupal
Clearly, if you are looking for perfomance, Basesys is your #1 choice. Combined with its unparalled ease of use, and unlimited expandability, this makes this system a strong contender.
