Compare Concrete5 vs. Grav

Concrete 5 is a long running content management system. It is known for it's user friendly interface and with it's recent iterations has moved to adopt Symfony components.

Grav is a fresh flat-file database which is easy to install. It uses a number of Symfony components and is very fast to get started with.

• Ease of use
• Extensions marketplace
• Reasonably sized community

• Fast to install and get started with
• Extensible via Plugins, Skeletons and Themes
• A fresh codebase, no PHP4 cruft here

• Product versioning can be confusing
• Not many examples for complex implementations
• Multilingual architecture not top notch

• Limited use cases due to flat-file approach
• Limited developer base
• Needs more work to round the edges in real-world use
