I'm sure you'll get a number of responses from people familiar with both systems, professing that CakePHP is better / smaller / faster, whatever. I haven't used Zend, so I can't comment on that.
However, the reason I am going to stick with CakePHP is because I know it, and trust its direction. We have already invested a couple of years in learning CakePHP, our team is familiar with it, and it is providing us with substantial benefits over using no framework (or the custom "framework" we used to use). I can't remember the last time we had a business need for a site that we couldn't solve because of CakePHP. So basically: I know CakePHP It can handle anything I want to do It is driven by very strong developer(s), who have a proven commitment to quality. and that's enough for me :) On Dec 17, 2:59 pm, Action <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I've always used Cake as my primary framework, but the Zend Framework > seems to be shaping up nicely.
