I experimented with them in January. I found that 

* a decent admin needs to be hand crafted, so you probably only want to use 
an auto generated one for very simple needs or as a stepping stone
* if you are using a relational db then ActiveAdmin is a good choice (using 
their DSL didn't bother me too much - though it was limited in some 
circumstances).
* if you are using nosql then you might as well write your own admin UI 
with a simple first step.

Cheers,
Nicholas
