WB gets my vote because it's so very easy to use and to admin. And with an appropriate template, responsive. (Y)

Lacarta:
Yeah I'd also vote for WB - especially with a good, responsive template. Wordpress is used by vast majority of people, and the truth is - it has affected it's quality and... it seems like they're creating new bugs instead of fixing the old ones with every update lol

Say what you wanna say but I think that Wordpress is inrreplaceble.

I disagree. I think Wordpress is a perfect example that shows that something isn't necessarily the best option "just because so many people use it". WordPress is a horror for inexperienced website admins. Its core is designed and built by nerds with tunnel vision, assuming that our clients don't have anything else to do but to try to understand the "logic" (what logic?) behind the system, while my clients don't want to STUDY their website, they want it to WORK for them and they want to maintain it with ease.
"Yes but there are TONS of plugins available!" Sure. Try finding a GOOD one. After you've spent a whole afternoon installing and uninstalling crap-plugins, some of which even come with free virusses and malware (or hacked copies of commercial jQuery-modules), you'll agree with me that it's better to have a small pool of plugins that are actually tested and checked by the community.
So, thanks but no, thanks. I have better things to do. Like building websites using WB that do exactly what my client wants, what I want. :-)
