It's as simple or as complex as you need it to be, although the default Manager backend is not as user-friendly as it could / needs to be for clients. Looking at Frog, the Administration backend looks very straightforward, potentially much better for clients. The Templating also looks sensible and straightforward although my initial impression is that it's not quite as versatile as MODx. There's always going to be a trade-off between ease of use and versatility though, and some projects will favour one over the other. The only real downside I can see is that Frog's plug-in list is quite a bit smaller than that of MODx. Frog's current community (and therefore support) is also a bit small (in the hundreds compared to 12k+ for MODx), though I imagine this will grow quite rapidly given the solid foundation. That of course will lead to more plug-ins! For simpler projects I reckon it's still a great option. Definitely going to keep an eye on this one. Great find, I love this site. :) I’m a big fan of MODx (http://modxcms.com/), which is now my default CMS for everything really.
