IMHO multicolumn is quite nice for install and forget solution. But if 
you want to be more flexible fedext - fluidcontent #1 #2 is first 
choice. once you have defined a foundation it´s click and forget.
Once you have understood the principles are able to define much much 
more than only a grid.

But be aware, you have to invest some time to get familar with it.

There´s also gridelements but I never tried it and read the opinion of 
other people where they also prefer fedext for severeal reasons.
