    They are only human and do not know how to use GoLive or Dreamweaver, nor should they have to learn.

    fifty, i just re-read this and i really want to stress that a CMS will not magically make the clients life easier or releave them of considerations or tasks. on the contrary, a CMS actually will give them more to complete and will absolutly require training at some level to use it effectively. they trade off to this though, is empowering the client to control any content the CMS drives themselves w/o the need for code or scripting language knowledge.

    i cannot stress enough (and i have been through this countless times) that really determining the clients' needs and motives, along with understanding "what" a CMS is really all about is probably 99% of how successful the results will be. seems as though several here are kind of short of that front and technology might be the driving force in "the best solution", rather than needs.
