I appreciate most people here would not choose this option, but the client has and I was wondering whether anyone had experience of using such a thing?

Tell him/her to cut their loses and use something current & lightweight like Wordpress, Drupal, Squarespace or the like...
YOU are the mediator between the client and the technology, thus YOU tell them what is what; not the other way around Fax_Benson...

- That's well & good, but 24.99 - 99.99 is a small price; abandon it and explain the relevance of the alternatives...ideaist
- open source, lightweight, flexible and much more used in the industry (relevance)...ideaist
- you "understand their direction but feel it is too short term when they should be thinking long term" or something of that variety...ideaist
