Exactly the same move here. We created ~2 dozen drupal sites and went to node.js in early 2011. There was about 4-5 months of learning curve, where we almost went back to drupal. The low level of abstraction in node.js resulted in some loss of productivity during that time. But over that time we stitched together sufficient little pieces of CMS capability that we have now fully recovered. And the benefits of working with node.js and javascript over php is pretty huge.

Our only regret now is not having moved to node.js sooner.
