We have experience of building native Android and iOS apps, but have used Titanium in the past to quickly prototype ideas, and it's proved a great tool for that..
We recently however used Titanium for a full client project (an app to control a home heating system), usual story, tight budgets/time/etc. We built the iOS app in under 3 months and then ported to Android in about 3 weeks, very pleased with the results, the app is now being widely used daily by many end users..
Two points that should be considered though:
1. You need to be very careful using Titanium, specifically in terms of organising your layouts and how you organise/implement your code.. Both these can make the app a pain to port and potentially dog slow and prone to crashes on both platforms
2. It's not going to work in every use case, there's limitations, mostly in terms of speed (rendering long lists, some slight responsiveness issues, etc.)
