matt asked for  "... others?"

have been involved using mediasurface (www.mediasurface.com) for about 8
months or so, they're one of our partners and have quite an impressive
client list (this isn't a plug, but i was impressed by their client list
when i saw it!). it's one of the expensive solutions but does seem to be
quite reliable and robust.

you do have to relearn everything you know about approaching the design and
structure of a website though. it seems the key to success using this
product is rigourous pre-planning to determine the building blocks of the
site. they have a plug-in which works directly with Dreamweaver too though i
have never used this

<tip author="roger" type="mediasurface development">

bit obvious but think it's a useful point.

when developing a site using mediasurface, try to ascertain how the site is
intended to develop over time, always keep this larger picture in mind
during site preparation duties and build in flexibility to the design and
structure from the outset. this will really help later when different
sections/features need to be added.
