WordPress, Joomla and Odoo for mid-sized businesses: a website your own team can run

For more than 18 years we have been building and running websites and portals with WordPress and Joomla – for city administrations, industrial groups and mid-sized companies. Where a company already works with Odoo, we build the website directly on the ERP, so content and business data live in one system. You get a site that fits the way you work, that your team can edit without calling a developer, and that we keep secure and up to date for years.

WordPress, Joomla or Odoo: the system that fits the way you work

At PixelMechanics, we take a technology-independent approach and prioritize the best solution for your individual needs. We work with three open-source platforms – and say honestly which of them fits your case.

WordPress

Ideal for companies looking for a user-friendly, versatile and quickly deployable website. WordPress is known for its ease of use, extensive plugin ecosystem and adaptability to many projects, except for multi-site requirements.

Joomla

Perfect for organizations that need sophisticated, highly customized web portals and online solutions. Joomla excels at creating complex, tailor-made platforms with extensive functionality, except for large-scale multi-site requirements.

Odoo

The right choice if you already run Odoo as your ERP. Website, shop and customer portal sit directly on your business data – products, prices, stock and customers come from the system you already maintain, so nothing has to be synchronised twice.

Our partnership-based approach

We work closely with you to determine the optimal technology for your project. In detailed consultations, we analyze your goals, target audience, technical requirements and long-term vision. This partnership-based process ensures that your website is built on the platform that best supports your success.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the main differences between WordPress and Joomla?
WordPress is the most user-friendly CMS and ideal for most website types. Joomla offers more built-in multi-user and multilingual features out of the box but is more complex to operate.
When does PixelMechanics recommend WordPress, when Joomla?
We recommend WordPress for corporate websites, blogs and content marketing. Joomla is better suited for complex multilingual portals, community platforms and websites with nested user roles. We advise you free of charge.
How long does it take to develop a professional WordPress or Joomla website?
Both systems enable websites in 4–10 weeks depending on scope. PixelMechanics structures the project clearly into design, development, content migration and launch phase.
What does a WordPress or Joomla website cost?
Simple websites start at approx. €5,000, complex enterprise websites can be significantly higher. After a free consultation, PixelMechanics creates a transparent fixed-price offer.
Can an existing Joomla website be migrated to WordPress?
Yes, PixelMechanics migrates Joomla websites securely to WordPress including content migration, URL structure preservation and SEO redirects. This preserves your existing rankings.
How secure are WordPress and Joomla for corporate websites?
Both systems are very secure with professional maintenance. PixelMechanics implements security plugins, firewall rules, regular updates and automatic backups for sustainably secure websites.
Does PixelMechanics offer maintenance and support for WordPress and Joomla websites?
Yes, PixelMechanics offers maintenance packages with regular updates, performance monitoring, backup management and security checks. This keeps your website permanently up to date, secure and fast.
What SEO features do WordPress and Joomla offer?

Is Odoo an option for the website as well?
Yes. If you already run Odoo as your ERP, we can build the website on Odoo too – content, products and customer data then live in one system and nothing has to be synchronised. Without Odoo in the house, WordPress or Joomla is usually the faster and cheaper route.
Where is the website hosted, and can we take it with us?
We host in data centres in Germany or the EU, with a data processing agreement in accordance with the GDPR. WordPress, Joomla and Odoo are open source: you get the code and the database at any time and can move the site to another provider without our involvement.
