Alex,
I would seriously ask you to look at SAAS platforms like
* Windev
* Servoy
* Lianja
I can't see why the two "you still have to do everything yourself" tools would help you much. You still have to build up things like user management, security, ORM, transaction processing, audit trail, and deal with tremendously difficult tasks like cross platform, cross browser compatibilities. It can make the difference between spending 5 years or 5 months.
I certainly would not make that mistake. I'd choose a tool that would take away those concerns and let me concentrate on the business side of things and not get stuck in non-trivial stuff that comes out of the box in another tool.
Walter,
