To make this question clear, we will go through these points of Drupal for mobile applications.

Drupal permits users to manage useful data and isolate it from the rest. It is a perfect CMS for news and consultants, as it is completely adaptable to your requirements, as allows customization of the behavior of a block by building modules.
