The right question is: are you the right choice for Cake? No, talking seriously, Auth in Cake is very powerful but, you will have to learn to use it, it´s not difficult, but either is a piece of cake :P About uploads, I do it with a behavior that the Master Jedi AD7six released some time ago, you will need to tweak a bit to fit in your app, but it works perfect.
Hope you can stay with Cake, I assure you, you will nor regret.
