What do you folks use for your Content management systems for your clients. I am struggling which one to use for my customers.

Any recommendations on which is the best and easiest to intergrate, I would be very grateful.

Thanks

It really depends on the client's needs. Sometimes a handwritten script that simply allows a file upload from their Dreamweaver script is all that is really needed; other times integrating FCKEditor and saving content to a file suffices; other times they want a lot. I have my own code base that I use ( https://sourceforge.net/projects/web20cart ) and customize on an as-needed basis depending on the client, but if they need something truly comprehensive I'll recommend WordPress or Drupal (depending on their needs).

I'm using http://www.expressionengine.com more and more, it gives me full control to build templates, content and output however I need it to.

I definitely recommend Drupal

I'm using joomla I find it easy to use how ever designing the main content can be a problem as its been layout in the main core code www.dragonstardesign.com

I second the vote Joomla CMS, lots of power lots of features.

Joomla all the way. The community contributions alone are worth using the CMS.

None of the above. I build it from scratch to meet my client's needs, since none of them can be met by the one-size-fits-almost-no-one stuff that's out there.

I'd go with WordPress. Big community support. Lots of plugins that stay compatible with even the most recent versions of the engine. Easy 5 minute install and the only WYSIWYG theme designer (via Dreamweaver extension http://www.themedreamer.com). Did I mention THOUSANDS free of themes out there?

I second the use of Wordpress. It's incredibly flexible and I've used it for dozens of clients and had very few problems.

If you like to have full control and you do not want to be limited to the specifics of addons such as CMS's like Drupal and Joomla then you want to go with Modx.

Modx is about to release a new platform too. Anyone who wants full control and flexibility knows Modx and uses nothing else. Many ex Joomla users have converted once they learn how flexible Modx is.

Modx won the 2007 Most Promising Open Source CMS award

modx does seem to look pretty good. Never tried i though. Have tried Joomla, and that for now is my choice.

I'd go with WordPress. It's incredibly flexible and I've used it for dozens of clients and had very few problems.

My two favorites to user are Joomla! and Wordpress.

Both are easy to work with and extremely scalable.

It really all depends (in my thoughts) of how much a client is
looking to do.

I think it depends on your purpose, but i would suggest Joomla also. Its cool and has a lot of modules, plugins blah blah
