I’m going to develop a web application using SmartGWT. I’ve heard about Vaadin framework. I wonder what is the best to use?
My application will be used by ~500 users at the same time. And I need high response performance and high security control. I won’t need dozen of pretty widget just enough to be able to use pretty tabbed pane and table. So what is the best choice regarding my needs?

Edit :
I’ll also need a tool to export table content to Excel format (like in Google Doc SpreadSheet).

ps : already check this one Should I use Vaadin Framework

    I looked into both these frameworks, and others, and decided to go with the core GWT widgets. You desire to have high response performance will be difficult with Vaadin since it sends almost everything back to the server. And if you don’t need super fancy widgets then the core widgets (plus some incubator/3rd party ones as needed) should be fine. I didn’t get deep into testing SmartGWT, but it seemed to really tie you into their framework (making it difficult to use core widgets as well) and I read about difficulties when starting to do things different than the showcase examples.

    Good luck!
