If you’ve got your head around Evo well enough to adapt things to your needs, you could try PubKit before jumping ship for Revo.
PubKit comes with a complete demo installation as a sub-tree. You can keep your admin pages as unpublished, so that only those with a manager login can see them, while keeping the advantage of front-end editing for the non-techie users.

This is a Blog site I did recently using Evo 1.5 which has proved quite popular
On the Home Page you can see the Summary Blog Articles with an Image & number of comments etc
http://www.anotherharddayattheoffice.co.uk/2011.html
Then if you go direct to the Blog this is a nice layout http://www.anotherharddayattheoffice.co.uk/blog.html
And then when clicking on an individual story http://www.anotherharddayattheoffice.co.uk/weekfourblog.html
You get the whole blog and the facility for readers to add comments etc
The site template etc and blog concept is also used on my daily forecast weather blog where I have live weather data uploaded every minute from a weather station I have, plus a streaming cam http://www.anotherharddayattheoffice.co.uk/weathercam.html
Have a look here at the traffic is gets http://www.sitemeter.com/?a=stats&s=sm2weathercam not bad for a local / clique site
