Well, how does digging a hole with a bulldozer compare to
doing it with a shovel? You can accomplish some of the same
things by using Apache alone, but you'll end up doing a lot
more work for a much smaller result.

Just try Zope, you won't go back.

P.S. from your companies perspective, a 'con' might be that
it's harder to find experienced Zope developers. but that
might be a 'pro' for you, as it gives you more job security.
