The previous author is right Django is a framework to build systems and not an already built system like a Content Management System, like Joomla. If you do want a comparison you have to compare a Django built CMS like : http://www.django-cms.org/.
I don't know the reasons for your comparison but having used most popular CMS systems: Wordpress, Joomla and Concrete 5: http://www.concrete5.org/ I can tell you that Concrete 5 is the easiest and quickest to setup for the user and developer. In comparison Joomla is a headache, a messy and hard to learn system. Just check out concrete 5 demo to see why: http://www.concrete5.org/ You should only really consider using Django CMS (although a very good system) if you need to add custom apps and custom functionality that you cannot find with a system like Concrete5 and you should also have a good grounding in Django/Python to start with in order to set the system up and seeing as you are asking this question I assume you have not. I am not a salesman, I have just tried many other CMS systems and concrete5 will make you smile at its ease of use and quick build time :) A comparison here Joomla/Drupal and C5: http://www.cmswire.com/cms/web-cms/drupal-and-joomla-to-lose-market-share-to-concrete5-web-cms-004347.php Hope this helps you.
