What can simplify and speed up CMS based on the framework?

Question

OctoberCMS

There is Laravel, and based on it, a ready-made October engine.
In what cases would it be inappropriate to take October, and work with naked Lara?
I understand if you need a flyer. But for example, if you need a service with business logic and a lot of work on the backend, how can October help here and speed up development? Let's say this is a service for processing meter data, with analytics, its own API, reports and charts.
And if you add user accounts to this service, the ability to upload photos to users, make friends, chat, blogs. Here October will speed up the development much?

CMS implements quite DEFINITE functionality.
Now, if this ALREADY EXISTING functionality suits you, then CMS will simplify your work.
Otherwise, you are neither warm nor cold from CMS.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Content_management_system
the name describes everything that is needed.
out of the box is to do anything based on text/media.
Those. blog, news site, article, etc.
Everything else is either through plugins or from scratch.
In fact, if there is no necessary functionality, there is no plugin for it, etc. It won't help, it will only make it harder.
Because you first need to understand the new / alien system, figure out how to work with it and saw the same plugins.
Well, of course, you can do anything, it's just a question of whether it's worth it.
They also do almost anything on WordPress, but this is not the best idea.
Yes, the cheapest due to the ready-made plugin database, but the output is Frankenpress.
