We've had some problems using realObjects in a test rollout on campus. Everybody has failed to mention what is hands down the best product...
http://www.ephox.com/ Take a look at EditLive! For Java. Hands down the cleanest TTW WYSWYG I've worked with. Our current solution is from Ektron using the empower/ewebeditpro solution. Its not pretty, but coupling it with some 2003 Terminal servers, an emulator from HobSoft, and a little slight of hand, we are delivering the activeX controls out to our mac/unix clients. This solution has been less than ideal, and we are currently developing a EditLive! solution to replace our Ektron based product. Simply put, Ektron has given us 16 months of broken promises to deliver a cross platform solution. There was a rumored java version that they never let into beta, and there is a Flash object that lacks link library and image support, which we have designated as core requirements of any TTW WYSIWYG solution.
