Concrete 5 used to be a very good CMS in the past – but version 8 is a mess. Two customer websites became so damaged that all I could do was reinstall them. And there are JavaScript errors in the backend, which make it hard to save changes.
Moreover, concrete5 in version 8 is such a fat system, that you have to upload around fifteen thousand PHP files to the web space. Okay, concrete5 is very, very flexible, and it is a powerful CMS, no question. But if that is to the detriment of stability and accuracy, I prefer a slimmer CMS that might require a bit more manual work.
Easy for developers and even easier for end-users. Your clients will love it!
Seriously great out of the box CMS. One of those systems that you can have a webpage up in less than an hour, but is well coded (OOP) and simply makes sense! You can go very deep with this system, and it is now my default CMS! As a designer and a Geek, it's truly the best of both worlds. Puts the Drupal / Joomla! / Wordpress systems to shame.
The best CMS system on the market! Open Source but supported.
