The installation is a matter of minutes for either application.
1. Use your web panel to make a db
2. Download a tar file, extract it, upload it to your ftp serve
3. Fill in a form or two in your browser

I'd suggest doing it on a subdomain.

I <3 Drupal, so it's hard for me to answer that in an unbiased manner.
 Most of the time people choose the one that they are most familiar
with or that "their friend" knows best and that's a pretty good
choice.

If you want to take this off list and send me more specific
recommendations I'd be happy to do a screencast "contact manager in 10
minutes" that would do whatever you need without writing any code.

Cheers,
Greg
