Ghost vs Neos CMS: What are the differences?
What is Ghost? Just a blogging platform. Ghost is a platform dedicated to one thing: Publishing. It's beautifully designed, completely customisable and completely Open Source. Ghost allows you to write and publish your own blog, giving you the tools to make it easy and even fun to do.
What is Neos CMS? A free enterprise web content management system. It is an highly individual Content Management System. It's flexible and has a ton of useful features.
Ghost and Neos CMS can be categorized as "Self-Hosted Blogging / CMS" tools.
Some of the features offered by Ghost are:
- An intuitive, minimal editor
- Ultra-fast content management
- All SEO features built-in natively
On the other hand, Neos CMS provides the following key features:
- Edit your content right where it is
- Beautiful & intuitive Control Panel
- Powerful roles & user management
Ghost is an open source tool with 34.1K GitHub stars and 7.44K GitHub forks. Here's a link to Ghost's open source repository on GitHub.
So many choices for CMSs these days. So then what do you choose if speed, security and customization are key? Headless for one. Consuming your own APIs for content is absolute key. It makes designing pages in the front-end a breeze. Leaving Ghost and Cockpit. If I then looked at the footprint and impact on server load, Cockpit definitely wins that battle.
