We are using SiteDepth at the moment... It's not a bad product... But I feel we have outgrown it, so we will be trying out Carma in the near future on some new sites...
SiteDepth does do everything they say it does on their website... It really does make life easier - if all the features you need are listed on their website, then I would recommend you go for it as the cheaper option.Last edited by bizarredollars; 05-23-2007, 12:37 PM.Comment

I love sitedepth. Their support is outstanding, and the script does anything a site should need. And if it doesnt do it, they will write up a new plugin for ya. And at a very small charge.
Love em'.

Yes, it's great.
The right CMS all depends on what you want to do with the site, especially with content rotation. Carma is very powerful and can handle a huge amount of members accessing the content. Organizing and setting up content rotation across multiple sites. It also uses smarty.
Cons: Something like $3500 to purchase or $120 a month to lease. Unless you are knowledgeable with templating, it will cost you extra to set up your site, and there do not seem to be alot of people that can do it. With any CMS, make sure you schedule and budget for this process.
For CMS's, there are Awiz, Sitedepth, Carma, MAS, Joomla. A few threads have been posted here on CMS's, just use the search function on the board to find out more.ISLAND DOLLARS

You don't mention much about what your specifications, budgets, etc etc, so this is a bit like posting: I need a car, which one?
As Marty [the ghost] points out above - CARMA is all powerful. Its knockout punch is in its templating engine [based on SMARTY]. You can do anything you want. Anything you can think of, it can handle.
From a content handling point of view, it does a great job.
On the other side of the fence you have SiteDepth. SD is to the point, and easier to get a handle on. Its templating system is less powerful, but with that said: if you can do HTML, you can do your own templates - which can't be said for CARMA (without a degree of ease anyhow)
They're in entirely different ballparks for cost and functionality, and you need to work out which one you want to head for.
There are other options as well, such as MAS from Mansion (which I haven't used so can't comment), and the round-robin of awiz etc (which I have, and can't recommend...)Comment

all i know is i referred a friend to SiteDepth and he bought it and he hit me up today frustrated that he is having a tech problem and nobody is getting back to him about it.
if you're reading this SD - get with the program please, I don't like looking bad when I recommend a product.I moved my sites to Vacares Hosting. I've saved money, my hair is thicker, lost some weight too! Thanks Sly!Comment

it's really good - it's meant for big budget DVD download sites - if u figure one of those sites is minimally a $100K investment just for the content, spending $30K on a CMS that does everything is not that bad.
i was hoping for a leased version which Stan said they were going to do but now he says its a long way off or maybe never.I moved my sites to Vacares Hosting. I've saved money, my hair is thicker, lost some weight too! Thanks Sly!Comment

So it's a lot more than most would need and from what you're saying a whole different ball game. If that's so, than that might make sense. But, not really someone looking at either of the two in the title would need or be able to use.it's really good - it's meant for big budget DVD download sites - if u figure one of those sites is minimally a $100K investment just for the content, spending $30K on a CMS that does everything is not that bad.

so, it isn't even in the same ball game as the two mentioned in the title?it's really good - it's meant for big budget DVD download sites - if u figure one of those sites is minimally a $100K investment just for the content, spending $30K on a CMS that does everything is not that bad.
