However: if you want your sites to look like everyone else's, and to 'set 'n forget' your sites, then perhaps a professional CMS is what you need. But remember there is usually a monthly cost associated with most CMS products so if you do the math it's actually cheaper in the end to build a CMS for yourself with just the Features you need as opposed to have every option under the sun which you most likely will never use.
Have luck!

Thanks for the insight and sounds like you are in a lucky position. I'm looking at a custom solution with a development company, but it's a big investment... more than I can justify right now. And to manage a project like that, even if I did have a developer I trust, is scary as I just don't have the background in all the technologies. I was hoping to find something pre-made like ElevatedX but that will allow a decent amount of front end design changes so I end up with a site that doesn't look like everyone else... but at a reduced cost from custom.
