Now there is really a “war” going on among developers about using a framework or not. The recent proof of this is this entry in this blog. It is a side by side interview with Simon Horwith and Hal Helms. Kind of reminds me on the OS war between MacOS and Windows 
My own opinion lends toward of the gentleman’s interview on the right side in the above blog. We have used Frameworks for some small projects and I have to admit that I am no fan of it. For us, it makes more sense to use a common coding practice (methodology) then force upon anybody to use a framework. All of our applications are build with a common methodology and developers who have worked with them understood it within days.
But go on and decide for yourself. Use what works for you and not what some hype dictates.

Nital,
You said it in your post:
"We have used Frameworks for some small projects"
Frameworks really come into their own when you start working on larger projects. Give it a shot with a bigger project and you’ll really see the benifit.
HI there
Like I said, everybody has to have his own opinion on using frameworks or not. I am also not posting this to start a war of using on or not or alike.
Ok, we have used a framework (Fusebox) for our Digital Asset Management System. But after working on it with 5 other developers we have seen that everyone rather used a methodology then a framework. We all worked the same as with a framework and everybody was on track within a short time.
I don’t make a big thing about it. I don’t like Framworks, because they force me to work the way they want. There are other things but I am not going into it. Use what you prefer and let others use their way
