More SAP NetWeaver BPM [EOL] Pros →

"​Zend Engine is the core of PHP. It makes PHP fast, efficient, and basically, the language of choice for web applications.""The fact that it is available open-source is the best feature.""Offers a complete environment to develop PHP applications. It is valuable because it allows you to have a complete stack (PHP, MySQL, Zend Server) enabling the building of a development environment, and to deploy to the production system.""The Zend Framework provides an easy, open source way to produce coding based on the needs of our customers.​""Scaling up is an important factor for large projects, and with PHP 7 and its performance improvements, this becomes even easier.​""The solution's initial setup process is easy.""It offers good support for various types of classes, along with many open source libraries that we can readily utilize in our application development process. This gives us a lot of options when it comes to custom development solutions, without having to worry about licensing or other programming-related issues.""We have not encountered issues with scalability as long as we effectively use caching to optimize performance of our web applications as well as a proper use of database connectivity."

More SAP NetWeaver BPM [EOL] Cons →

"In terms of improvement, it doesn't support concurrent processing. When we want to process anything on a concurrent basis, we have to divide it into a number of things, like a queue, or we have to run it using Cron jobs. We would like to have the capability to run any thread or process in parallel.""The biggest problem with PHP is you have to write lot of conditions or have to use a framework.""Its object oriented programming language needs improvement.""Integration of MVC with ORM tools for PHP is okay, but lacking a short list of decent ORM tools for PHP to choose from; there is ample room for improvement in both areas.""The main area that Zend needs to improve is to support asynchronous programming tasks, which is facilitated in PHP 7, but not at the same degree as HHVM.​​""Although it offers a complete environment to develop and deploy PHP applications, it has some limitations. For example, when the volume of data increased exponentially, I had problems scaling the system.""SQL queries have always been an issue with PHP, especially if you use large tables, which require caution from the side of the developer.​""The process of installing and configuring the product is a bit complex and could be improved."
