This is a great CMS system with loads of extensions
I have been using Joomla for about 10 months and before that had only make 1 or 2 sites and my coding was terrible. The learning curb may be relatively steep if you are a beginner but if you know a little about how websites are made and work then you'll be making awesome sites in no time. I use Joomla and Wordpress for my clients' sites. Joomla is used for the more complicated ones because it has so many capabilities..
Easy to learn but bulky
Easy to learn and very versatile with great plugins but it just wont run at an acceptable speed on godaddy servers, even with every effort taken to lighten the application. I have moved on to wordpress now as some of the lighter templates run ok on my hosting.

Most effective CMS
I installed so many CMS for the research and I found JOOMALA is the Best and Most Effective CMS. I recommend to my friends.
Solid application with a million possibilities!
Joomla is an amazing website base to start from! The only drawbacks are that some Joomla sites can be slow, but if you use an optimized template like the one here: http://www.joomlapolis.com/content/view/7555/1/ That will not be a problem. Also, if you want Wordpress like abilities to tag content items then use K2, which has blown my mind: http://k2.joomlaworks.gr/ But basically ANYTHING you want to do with Joomla has probably already been written. Search the Extensions directory here: http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/ Good luck!
If you are a developer, this is super fast to pick up and use
I just built a small company website in this in about 8 hours having never touched it before using a modified free template. I have never been able to complete something this fast in a CMS and the client loves it.
