Wordpress Making things Easier or Just Complicated - rexpurve - 04-07-2016

At the face of it , wordpress seems a awesome cms to use , it provides a lot of functionality built in and is super easy to install and start using even if you don't know anything about it.
It is best CMS for web developer when it comes to create a working site which includes heavy features like ecommerce or some other things.
But imagine a scenario where you have a psd design of the site you want develop and only functionality is contact form, the wordpress would seem overkill.
sometimes its better to stick to old school html and css , maybe throw in little bootstrap to spice up the design.
what are your thoughts on this ?
Is wordpress the ultimate tool , it is very popular but does it deserve this popularity ??

I use WordPress for it's SEO. It is also very easy to find a plugin that does something for us. All because WordPress is very popular. Classifieds, coupons etc, you name it and you have some easy to do option available on WordPress. But if you want to do something complicated, Joomla is there for you. Joomla does well for it's module positions.
