Business Community CMS

[fay11]

I have a client who needs a website similar to a business directory where local businesses can showcase their profile. Each business will be able to show contact information, a photo gallery, details about their company. Registered uses can give feedback and rate different businesses. This website also has blogs and useful information for startups and small companies. I need a system which can handle the development of this business community website. I am not sure whether Joomla, or Drupal can be used in this instance.

Also if there are any freelancers who will be willing to help me with the development of the website I would appreciate this and am willing to share what the client will pay for this website.

Looking forward to your feedback.

You can go with Joomla and there is directory component available there. I have developed a similar site using that component for my one client. It's SOBI
