I have experience with a few of those systems and don't think "reviewed" is a fair term. I found 45+ minutes install time to be way too much, assuming you have the underlying technologies already installed. Specifically Radiant CMS, creating a new site takes no more than 2 minutes. There wasn't even mention of the Radiant CMS extension system, which in my opinion where the real power is. The Frog CMS documentation is also fairly weak, especially the extensions section, but does show potential. That too only took a few minutes to get up and running.

This seemed more like an overview than a review.

A CMS is supposed to be used for several years. Install time is irrelevant for the evaluation of a CMS.

I don't disagree, I'm just saying this isn't really a review, it's more of an overview. There was greater mention of install time (which I agree is irrelevant in the long term but varied from my experience with a few products) than functional features, like the extensions on radiant/frog
