you can get a free working demo of concrete5 here:
http://getconcrete5.com/demothat should help you get a sense of how easy the UI is for your client..
templating is super easy once you wrap your head around our somewhat different approach to the problem.

We have used C5 for two sites - our own and for a client. The CMS interface is very intuitive and therefore easy to use. I can definitely recommend it.

Anyone use the C5 hosting or just host their own code? I am hosting a few myself, but wonder if going with their reseller plan is a good idea. Less admin on my part. Is the performance their from their hosting plans?
