Perch CMS 4444 Responses

Maybe a little smoother than Cushy though. You don't have to change your mark-up with Perch (adding HTML classes etc.).
And it looks like Cushy runs on a remote server(?), whereas Perch runs locally, which might be an advantage, given you don't mind a tiny bit of setup.

I'm also considering taking Perch for a spin, though I'm more of an Open Source kinda guy. :-)
Dancer: I learned about Perch from Jon Hicks, http://www.hicksdesign.co.uk

lukus_W: That is pretty much why I'm asking if it's worth the money. :-)
Tons of other (free) CMS's out there, but this one seems extra light weight and simple in it's design, compared to most of them. But I can only judge it from its packaging, which isn't very sufficient.

lukus_W, I do not have a problem with paying a small fee, after all it was hard work and time that were used to create it. It is more worth while for them to invest and develop Perch as it good be an alternative and worthwhile revenue stream. Plus I imagine the support is very good. Bit like Expression Engine.

I had a play with a test version and found it quite good - am going to use it for small jobs as the interface is dead simple and I don't have to create a bunch of templates.

so if you buy it do you install the files on your server? or does it stay with them like cushy?

This looks fantastic, exactly what I was looking for ... except ... it seems like they want a fee for each client (server) I use it on. I'm more than willing to pay for the license - just not over and over again. I've e-mailed the company for clarification but it seems that the steep fee is per server. For the cost of paying $57/client I use this on, I might as well just pay a developer to create my own version.
