    Looks great, so as a tip you can avoid
    Java Code: 
     if (userLogin.isEmpty() || userPassword.isEmpty()) {
			return "missing";
		}
    instead using
    Java Code: 
    <h:inputText value="#{loginForm.userLogin}" required="true"/>
    As any way is great

    Hi hugomx,

    thank you for your answer, I didn't knew about that.
    I'm now using PrimeFaces and added a bit more of complexity, I've created a new Class Company for all Users and I'm trying to use Hibernate with all this, let me see what I can come up with. One question, normally I'd create a List<UserPOJO> companyUsers; in class Company to get all Users allocated to that Company, but I've been reading some tutorials and some say to use HashMap instead of List but this seems to be the prefered way with JSF 1.x?
