Re: Yii Framework
@Hill180
That is a dangerous question to ask because of course it comes down to preference and what you are most familiar with.
That being said, I have used both CakePHP and Yii, I have more experience with and am more comfortable with CakePHP, and would have to agree with your assessment. I have gone through a great Yii training book, and built several apps with it. At the company where I work we also primarily use Yii as our PHP framework and have built some advanced applications with jQuery, and other app helpers. My preference is still for CakePHP due to it's ease and convenience of many things including Request Handling, Authentication, Helpers, and Vendor Handling (tcpdf, PHPExcel, and various jQuery libraries).
The biggest thing that I could suggest is to read up on the features, understand what it is you want to get out of the Framework, and then become an expert at it's efficiencies :)
My two cents.

Don't need to worry about Composite Keys.What are your thoughts on Yii? Tried Yii? Please be constructive.. I know this forum is bias to CakePHP, but I just want a general opinion if you tried it.
