Praise for Open Source Web Content Management in Java
Comparing Open Source Java CMS
The report is a master piece of analysis covering business-critical aspects as well as technical details.... The report is profound and reaffirms Seth’s role as one of the best CMS consultants out there, especially when it comes to Open Source CMS. Seth actually compiled first-hand information from the project leads into the report, which is smart.

Daisy in landslide Open Source CMS Report
Seth's approach is quite unique amongst analysts, in the sense that Seth actually installs himself every product he's evaluating, and from my personal experience, takes his time to learn enough about it to ask really sensible questions. His 1 1/2 hour long phone interview, and the hefty follow-up email exchange we had showed the amount of effort he was putting in these reviews - I was impressed. Contrasting this with the fluffy stuff one finds elsewhere, his report was a totally refreshing take on what a good analyst report should consist of.

A report well worth reading and highly recommended
Seth Gottlieb is unquestionably the guru of open-source content management systems. It comes as no surprise, therefore, that the Open Source WCM in Java report is clear, informed and useful.
The overall marketplace assessment gives a good idea of the strengths and weaknesses that should be understood by all WCM purchasers, whether of open or closed-sourced options.
The review of individual products then sheds lights on the diversity of options, and when each might be applicable. These reviews cover both business and technical perspectives, important in the open-source space.
