We are currently using Aldon/CMS.  We've had it for several years now and
are generally pleased with its performance.  At times we have problems with
members of logical files not being propagated across our 2 live
environments and our network, but I'm not sure if that's an Aldon problem
or a problem with our user exit program.  We -do- have a saying (proven
with several other packages):  "If it works here, it'll work anywhere."  (:

At the time we chose Aldon/CMS we also evaluated SoftLanding's package.
I'm not sure exactly what made us pick Aldon over SoftLanding (it was, oh,
4-5 years ago), but we did.  (:

And, of course, with an application being firmly entrenched in our
development cycle, and working, and with other irons in the fire, we
haven't re-evaluated our decision to see which package might 'win' with
today's features.
