There are people who are using Joomla and people who using Wordpress and each of them have their reasons why they are using that certain platform. It depends very much on what do you want to achieve with your website because for example Wordpress is much better if you want to make a website with a lot of content (text, images, videos) but in the same time I think Joomla is better for a small online games website. There are many things that you need to consider and compare between them but in the end everything depends on you and which one (Wordpress or Joomla) you understand better.
There are some resources helping you have a right choice when choosing your needed CMS:
A small PDF file comparing WordPress, Joomla, Drupal and Plone
A comparison of Modx and WordPress
A comparison of WordPress, Drupal, and Joomla with demo accounts for each program
Professionals' favorite program is usually Joomla. Joomla allows them to build a site with more content and structure flexibility than WordPress offers, but still with fairly easy, intuitive usage.
