Good points. It depends on the amount of content being turned around
here - that is after all the strength of a CMS - that and how easily
the content can be managed using metadata & taxonomies. Perhaps a full
blown CMS is beyond requirements.

You wouldn't necessarily know that you were looking at a 'portal' since
the CMS also seperates the content from the presentation. The CMS based
site could look identical to the existing one & take all of the
advantages of the backend, its up to the requirements. Drupal sites
with little or no customisation look like Drupal sites - others are
unrecognisable.

I'd be very wary of some of the other PHP based 'CMSs', some are
inherently insecure - though some would also say that about any PHP
based site lol.

I've been assuming that we are talking about open source solutions...
