I believe Flask actually has the advantage in the ORM since you aren't tied to Django's strictly RDBMS structure and Flask will allow you to easily use NoSQL solutions if that's your thing. Flask with SQLAlchemy is just as powerful as Django's ORM.

Flask does have an admin plugin but it's nowhere near as good, polished, or documented as Django's.

Django does have the advantage of a bigger mind share, users and ecosystems.

sqlalchemy is more powerful than django orm.

easy there. you can as well use nosql with django (orm is useless then, by definition) and you are in the same exact situation as using nosql engines with flask. if you get rid of the orm in django (which is doable), you are just bringing your own batteries here, just as you are bringing them to flask.
