Cons
"The solution could improve its user interface."

More SAP NetWeaver Business Rules Management Cons →

"The biggest problem with PHP is you have to write lot of conditions or have to use a framework.""SQL queries have always been an issue with PHP, especially if you use large tables, which require caution from the side of the developer.​""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.""A general scripting language should be further developed and should be embedded into it.""Zend PHP Engine needs to improve the loading time of its libraries and make it faster.""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.""Its object oriented programming language needs improvement.""The process of installing and configuring the product is a bit complex and could be improved."
