If you need a CCK which builds on native Joomla content system in order to be able to use all the other extensions available, if you need a CCK with flexibility, if you can dedicate a day or two to boot, if you need a solid, vibrant and present team behind such strategical choice as CCK:s are then this is your option.
This might sound as a gimmick but its the way I have come to see it during this first week of usage.
Only reservation is lack of documentation but that is more than well compensated by the very dedicated and responsive team through their forum, and the documentation is getting better as the weeks goes by.

This really blows miles away all current contenders in this field. It's really as it name eludes, flexible content.
The only thing telling against it is its young age, and yet so mature.
All things seems to be in place, except various modules that would make it even more useful. But hey then again, as long as you use it in "proper" way you will be able to use the modules available for com_content, overcoming that shortcoming.
You simply should download and try it, and take note of that its first release is yet to come and RC in some days (I think).

This component is excellent in many of the cases I can imagine doing on the websites I develop, and have probably used it on 5+ customer websites.
I choose it mainly because of 3 reasons:
1. it fulfills its purpose as a form component and is robust doing it
2. it is simple, both for me to build up, and for handing over to my customers, who ultimately will be the ones maintaining the site we develop
3. its styled and plugs in my websites so beautifully that i seldom need to tweak on that part but whenever I need to all is within the reach of the css file
In a more advanced scenarios, I still would need to find myself to the more advanced components, such as fabrik, which I feel belongs more in the cck category than form component.

- very easy and intuitive usage
- almost complete in functionality (a better statistical functionality is what i wish for, i made some amendments myself which i have posted over here, http://www.acajoom.com/component/option,com_joomlaboard/Itemid,26/func,view/id,2337/catid,20/)
- so far have proved to be stable
given the mile age of acajoom compared to the other ones that have been around the corner for ever i would say this is an already great component with great potentials
