Question Ranking
Pros
Pro Highly customizable templates
Joomla allows for heavily customizable templates to be changed from the admin interface without needing to hack.

Pro More than 8000 extensions
Which can be found here.
Pro Easy to pick up
Pro Great for social networking and commerce sites

Pro Translation workflows made easy
Get task driven views for translators.
Pro Frontend is completely up to you
Free yourself from the complicated structure of other CMS's. You get the data as JSON through an API call, for displaying anywhere and anyhow you want.
Cons
Con Insecure
It's common-place for a Joomla-based website to be defaced, often very quickly. This is most often due to the low quality of extensions.
Con Extensions are scarce, badly maintained & rarely good
If it's not part of the default Joomla installation, quality extensions are rare. Joomla has a extensions library, but it is full of abandoned, dated or bloated components, modules and plugins.
Con A bit more knowledge needed than others
Technical skill is required to set up the webserver, choosing a platform, template language, etc. It's on a different level than Wordpress, but you get a huge amount of freedom and flexibility if you can manage the front-end coding.
