I have tried many of them, owned most.
Sitedepth is not super bad. It has some major hidden issues, and requires tons of tweaks. Support is hit and miss. Every so often the DB will just blow up, so do backup. Cheap, but has issues. Good for many small sites.
Awiz - Some swear by it. The documentation really sucks unless your 100% fluent in Engrish. Same goes for support, they are quick but are real bad with English so things can be frustrating.
Adult web ware - was fantastic. dead product now. Really a shame.
Carma - support is just like Nats. Integrates great into nats. Kind of pricey, hard to change in my opinion. Also seems to not have as many features as I am used to - again unless I could not understand the tweaking. Like nats the documentation center could use a little work.
Elevated X - So far my favorite. Very stable, great support using the ticket system. Does everything I can see the need for so far. No real issues yet. Only downside is I wish they had a more automated way to keep it licensed. Sometimes I am just not around when they mail me the key. Sort of a personal issue I suppose. I now have that forwarded to someone I trust to add to my site now in case I am not around.
