There are some additional reasons to convince your customer on that point, because vanilla php almost lays in coder styles and that projects always are more difficult to switch from one developer to another.
One strong value in frameworks is that demands to code using normalized styles, and that means benefits by doing things clever and quickly.
My first look at frameworks was fat free framework, and it was easy and light; but when I have discovered Slim It was enough to convince me that this is the real way to make php apps.
So now I have slim as my base to work and it’s great.
