Code Quality, Documentation and Community. That said, I’ve personally choosed Symfony and I don’t regret it.
Symfony and CakePHP are the best: active development and vibrant communities.
Both are very similar to Ruby on Rails.

Symfony has the best documentation: more than 700 high quality pages including a complete free book (http://www.symfony-project.com/content/documentation.html).
Yahoo uses Symfony for Yahoo Bookmarks, Yahoo Answers and del.icio.us (more than 20 million users!!) (source: http://www.phpday.it/site/phpday-2007/calendario-conferenze/canale-enterprise/federico-feroldi-php-in-yahoo/)
