What is Drupal CMS?
Drupal is an open-source content management system (CMS) and content management framework (CMF) written in PHP language and distributed under the GNU General Public License. That means that the software is completely free.
If we compare Drupal with Joomla, almost every module is commercial in Joomla...and comparing it with WordPress where almost every free module is just a catch to upgrade to the premium version...Drupal stays free. That means all the modules, themes are free. There are some commercial plugins and themes but really rare.
That is the best thing about Drupal. It was built for community and without charging you at every step.
Drupal community is the best community on the Internet. There are thousands of Drupal developers developing Drupal modules. It is a very advanced content management framework used by some of the most important sites on the Internet. Did you know that Grammy.com, NASA.com, and many Universities, and government sites are all using Drupal?

Why would you choose Drupal?
Drupal is free, flexible, and very secure. There are thousands of developers all around the world who constantly fix and update Drupal core and modules. Many of the world's biggest websites switched completely to the Drupal framework because of the security and code flexibility.
WordPress's strength is the capability to quickly set up a website with simple, out-of-the-box features. Drupal's strength is offering users the framework and tools to create an entirely customized, complex website with complex functions. It is like comparing a Volkswagen to Ferrari.
Drupal reviews its third-party components on a daily basis, although retaining full authority over their content-disposition and distribution. WordPress does hardly any to vet and inspect plug-ins in its community, and plugins may be submitted by anyone in various manners, making it practically impossible to keep constant quality and security by the core WordPress team.
There are thousands of add-on modules that you can install and create a unique and specific website. There are modules for every feature that you can think of. Drupal can be used for simple websites, blogs, social bookmarking sites, e-commerce websites, and community websites.
