We use WebObjects [1] for internal and external applications.
WebObjects and its DirectToWeb technology enables us to have "Data
collection applications for web users" up and running in a matter of
days or one or two weeks what would take weeks to months with other
technologies (our experience - YMMV).
I'm currently building a tool for having "micro sites" with special
features, Lucene integration, portal frontend, admin application,
about 30 tables, lots of relationships. I started this week and it
has to be online by Sept. 1st. We will see - currently I'm on
schedule ... ;-)
Ah, for the record: WebObjects is FREE. No fee to pay. Free
development tools for Mac OS X, supported platform is Mac OS X, but
it should run on every Java 2 capable platform. Recommended dev tools
are Eclipse with WOLips (also free). I don't think it's really useful
to do development on other platforms than Mac OS X, but it is
possible. Deployment is free too.
