"Zend Engine gives the flexibility to use external modules to easily expand the functionalities you need for your web project.""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.""​Zend Engine is the core of PHP. It makes PHP fast, efficient, and basically, the language of choice for web applications.""The Zend Framework provides an easy, open source way to produce coding based on the needs of our customers.​""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.""This solution is really easy for me to use.""Scaling up is an important factor for large projects, and with PHP 7 and its performance improvements, this becomes even easier.​"

Cons
"The solution could improve its user interface."

More SAP NetWeaver Business Rules Management Cons →

"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.​​""A general scripting language should be further developed and should be embedded into it.""The biggest problem with PHP is you have to write lot of conditions or have to use a framework.""Zend PHP Engine needs to improve the loading time of its libraries and make it faster.""The process of installing and configuring the product is a bit complex and could be improved.""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 solution can be quicker."
