Deployment Wizard for MS CMS Standard Edition

With a new "lite" version of its CMS product, Microsoft is targeting the lower end of the marketplace -- where many observers thought the company belonged in the first place (see our earlier take). But the cheaper version of the product remains somewhat challenging to implement. So a UK consultancy has developed a "deployment wizard" geared towards small enterprises with scant IT support, to get the CMS product up and running. Note that the wizard doesn't migrate pre-existing content and is therefore more useful for new sites. You might also become annoyed when the wizard encourages you to select pre-built site channels, like "About Us" (though you can modify them later). Finally, it does not assist in the actual use of MS CMS, but surely that's Microsoft's job. This tool is a clever attempt to help you just get started in the first place...
