CMS's - Editable Region Only Types

[JamesU2005]

CMS's - Cushy, SurrealCMS, Perch?

Anyone had any experience using CMS's like Cushy, SurrealCMS, Perch etc?

They work by you the designer adding in a small snippet of code for the regions that you want to be able to edit, usualy php, which is then detected by the CMS, allowing you to edit/manage these regions in a CMS.

They look perfect for small sites when you don't require the complex and time consuming config of Wordpress, Joomla etc.

So are they any good?

I have used a great CMS called concrete5. It is like an MVC setup where you can add all your own functionality called blocks.

Basically you set up a theme, add editable regions and publish content to the db.

Not sure how compliant the code will be in the content areas but generally it works well.

I am guessing all the other cms's are the same idea.

Thanks, will have a look.

Anyone else had experience with any of these?
