I chose salt after failing to get Puppet and Chef working. Out of the box on Debian, just no luck. Salt was just plug and go. Haven't bothered with Ansible (yet) as it didn't officially support states when I was evaluating options, and statefulness was my number one need. I can pick up languages fairly easy (I'm a software dev by trade), so different languages don't bother me, it was more about feature set. It is annoying, though, that it seems everyone treats Salt as forgettable. I wish I could find things like https://github.com/dev-sec https://github.com/dev-sec for Salt, but they only have Ansible, Puppet and Chef versions.
