“Concrete5 is an open source content management system,...”

Concrete5 is an open source content management system, in fact its probably as about perfect as you're going to find.

Its easy enough to use/set up for the beginner, yet delve behind the scenes, and the possibilites seem endless.

If you're a designer, Concrete5 integration is the easiest I have ever come accross, and if your a developer, this is the one cms that will put a smile on your face.

I'm sure if you've used a cms before, you do all the hard work and then spend a lot of time with the client explaining how to do things within the site, not the same with Concrete5, the last ecommerce site I built using it, I was with the client for 2 hours....2 hours!!!!! job done, client has only called me twice for a refresher that was completed in a 15 minute telephone conversation. In fact, you could teach clients how to edit an entire site built on Concrete5 over the phone.

In short, if you want to build a site using what is, in my opinion, THE most serious conctent management system availabel today, then check out http://www.concrete5.org/r/-/351 and take a test drive :)
