I am the lead intranet developer for Bell Atlantic Mobile, the United States' second largest wireless communications company. We use Zope and its components to provide access to HR data on our intranet and to facilitate other applications. Zope allows for better organization of code, and allows us to focus on coding first. With Zope, apps are developed and debugged quicker and easier, and they run faster than straight CGI. Python and Zope are intelligently designed and solidly built.
