WordPress has become one of the most popular, if not the most popular, blogging platform and CMS on the planet. There a lot of pros:
- WordPress, and many of the themes and plugins for it, are freely available as Open Source code
- out of all the Content Management Systems and Blogging platforms out there, WordPress would have the biggest community
- WordPress Core has a regular development schedule, with releases these days very rarely breaking backwards compatibility
- WordPress is famous for it’s easy installation process
- there are a number of very good security plugins.

But also there are a cons:
- WordPress has a reputation as a difficult platform to design on
- Limited Permissions Scoping
- Historically WordPress has been designed as Blog platform. As such, the content model is a little restrictive
- A lot of inconsistencies exist with the internal API

In ane case WordPress is a strong content management system because of its origin in blogging. It is very easy to navigate through the pages and content on a WordPress website. WordPress makes it simple to organize content with or without a lot of website management knowledge. But I prefer custom CMS instead of free of charge CMS. You can observe it at my website.
