Sometimes if we have update template and other layout related things for example replacing of textbox control with drop down box or list box with some default value, it will update other component alignment as well and forcefully need CSS change externally to handle user interface rest things well and good.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Need Better knowledge of Java server pages (JSP) and JavaScript knowledge for better understanding and fast work.
Never use blindly without knowing your target audience, applicable domains and sensitivity of data, If clients need to handle website by them self then gives some training and advice they can also handle some layouts and user interface using this CMS.
