Vaadin Portlet or Liferay?

I want to create portal using either using Liferay or Vaadin, but i am a newbie for both the tools, can anyone suggest me if u have done this thing earlier? Which one is easy to use, as I don't have enough time to cash in "Time" to learn the technology in depth.

Any Help is appreciable.

Thanks!

Azad

I haven't used either one, but if you end up getting one to work with BIRT, a short write up what you did to get the one you chose to work, would be great for the devShare!

did you ever used GWT? If yes then Vaadin would be my first choice because it is GWT on the server.
For you to remember is that Vaadin is something like a GUI model on the server, so nearly each interaction with the website will fire a event to the server that has to be processed. I don't know if they still have problems with performance now but it was a big problem in earlier releases.

Your decision should be based on several factors. It is hard to give any advice without knowing the system to be implemented in depth.

Hi CB RELL, sincerely, thanks for the reply. 
 
I haven't ever worked in GWT, but have started working on Vaadin now, the problem i faced today is, i just want to add more than one portlet on same page, for that how can I add the second portlet on same project(Vaadin project). 
 
And can u share some sample project, specially on Vaadin Inter-Portlet-Communication?

Hi Azad, 
 
You can add multiple portlets from multiple projects on the same page, but a project can have multiple portlets as well, by declaring multiple portlet elements within portlet.xml and liferay-portlet.xml. 
 
As for IPC, I have never tried it.
