It's perfect for business start-ups who do not have a lot of money to spend on custom-made websites made from scratch. Being open-source, you don't have to worry about whatever functionality you need as there is most probably someone who has made a plugin for that. Even if you can't find that functionality you want there is always the choice of hiring someone to develop that plugin for you for cheap.
