Concrete5 CMS is a content management system for businesses and content community sites.

From the website:

concrete5 is an open source content management system. It's revolutionary - and it's free.

What makes concrete5 better than Drupal, Joomla, Wordpress and every other CMS?

Building and running a website are two very different challenges. Certainly, one person may wear both hats, but the process of launching a great website is far different from running a great website over time. Concrete5 lets you do both: build and run great websites. Most other content management systems are built for one side of the equation or the other.

Drupal and Joomla were designed by and for developers. Building and maintaining a site in Drupal or Joomla is far too complex and intimidating for a regular person. Imagine paying a consultant to write a Word Document that you could never edit. How useful is that to your business?

Conversely, blogs like Wordpress were designed entirely for the casual site owner, with few concerns about extensibility. Imagine being told your document was always going to have a cover page, a table of contents, and an index – no matter how short you wanted it to be. Sure it's great you can get started quickly, but if you want to do anything more than blog, Wordpress is like using a hammer to drive screws.

With concrete5, you get the best of both worlds. Anyone can start making their own website in seconds, and the editing experience is easier than using a blog; just click on what you want to change. Developers still get a flexible and robust framework for building sophisticated web applications. Web geeks can build anything they might with Drupal or Joomla. With concrete5, however, site owners will be able to make changes and additions on their own, for years to come.
