You will probably land on this page looking for an answer to a question we ourselves had some months ago.

You want to choose a solid foundation for your next project, which requires a CMS, and you have very compelling reasons to do it in Ruby on Rails, but you don't know the existing options all too well.

Luckily for you, we have been testing the most popular CMS solutions in the market that have been built with Ruby on Rails for you.

As a specialised development consultancy, we work on projects of all sorts. In our first two years of existence, we learnt a lot about client-side work. You can find our recap on our blog entry We Don't Need a CEO (Lessons Learnt in Two Years Running a Development Consultancy).
