I have never had RedDot get in the way of my designs, or those designs received from contractors. It is a bear to learn up front, but in the end it's not so bad and even fun to work in.
For us the main selling point was the user interface for our content contributors, and the substantial editorial tools. We have been using the tool for six years now, and granted the CMS landscape has evolved immensely in that time, in some ways RedDot has fallen behind where others have moved ahead, but at the end of the day, it still is one of the best, if not the best, enterprise level CMS out there.

I'd also like to note that I am a designer by trade, and working with RedDot is a nightmare. The definition of a content management system is just that, it manages the content. It shouldn't get in my way AT ALL in regards to the design. I want this to become an open-ended discussion about why you/group/ company chose to use RedDot.
