Pros
It's intuitive, comprehensive in feature set, easy to set up, easy for clients to use, responsive, adaptable, and secure. The user community is supportive, helpful, and really, really smart.
Works out of the box, easy to setup and is packed with features so you don't need loads of plugins. Great for editors and very good for developers to build off.
Especially if you are wishing to write your own PHP code for special requirements, C5 is really the most solid and affordable solution out there.
Cons
With the release of version 7 and continued in 8, that was severely reduced due to new addon requirements and some developers not wanting to re-write their products.
Our theme no longer works with current versions of Concrete 5 (5.6) and I have no idea how to fix it.
It is quite resource intensive. Errors in configuration may require a rollback to a prior backup.
