we have a mixed development environment using ASP.NET MVC and Ruby on Rails. We have come from a purely C# / ASP.NET background, but now have some rails experience and we love both. Problem is deciding at the beginning of a project which one to use can sometimes be tricky.

Any tips for how to explain to the non technical members of our company and our clients why we would chose one over the other for various projects?

Thanks in advance.

    • Deployment? Rails is interpreted, ASP.NET MVC requires compiling.
    • Speed? One’s bound to be faster than the other, I’m assuming (although I cannot be certain) that ASP.NET MVC would be slightly faster as its compiled.
    • Platform? ASP.NET MVC obviously has to run in a Windows environment, whereas Rails could run on *nix/Windows/Mac
    • Development time? You’re all going to be more familiar with the constructs of one system over another meaning one will take you longer to develop in. If speed of development is required, one will be preferable.
