Magento _uses_ *SOME* ZF components, but is not built on ZF's MVC at all. As such, it's like comparing a Toyota Matrix to a Pontiac Vibe -- they both use some of the same parts and have similar outward appearance, but they're discrete products, with different engines under the hood. > I'm looking for other application examples, open source or not, that make > massive use of Zend Framework (MVC) but i found only old projects, dead > cms projects, and application written only for educational purposes. > > Can you give me a list (at least 4-5) sample of enterprise applications > like Magento (it can be cms, wiki, crm, e-commerce, e-learning, and so), > if they exists?

Unfortunately, many companies don't like to publicize what they have built their solutions on. I *can* say that I've heard of sites built using Zend Framework by every major US television media company, the Library of Congress, several other government sites, and more. Hopefully we can get some folks to talk about specific projects on this thread, however. -- Matthew Weier O'Phinney Project Lead | [email protected] Zend Framework | http://framework.zend.com/ PGP key: http://framework.zend.com/zf-matthew-pgp-key.asc
