Paul Sterling on Umbraco vs. DNN: "While both are frameworks in the sense that they can be used as a basis for extension, Umbraco has a more “native” .NET approach in that .NET controls (user controls, custom controls, and the like) can be used “as is” either via Umbraco macros or inline in your markup without any special consideration for the framework."
