"7 years using PHPStorm and it is awesome"

"PhpStorm - Must Have for PHP Devs"
5/5
What do you like best about PhpStorm?

The ease of starting a project or opening up an old project was virtually flawless. Starting new projects with frameworks was also made simple with built-in functionality. The intellisense provided by PhpStorm also makes coding your projects fast and efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhpStorm?

Setting up the project to run through XAMPP was not as simple as it should have been. Often had to wait several seconds and sometimes minutes for a project to properly save in any directories it was being saved in to properly see the updates made. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"PHP development IDE on a 100 morning coffees routine."
4.5/5
What do you like best about PhpStorm?

PHPStorm is an all stop show, swiss army knife of PHP development, VCS integration, Automatic deployment to selected host, code analysis and file structure all at the same place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhpStorm?

PHPStorm is a BIG IDE, and it's hungry! Being developed in Java, it's memory hungry, just keep that in mind. You can still use it on a smaller system, but not all the tools will work well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best IDE I've used"
5/5
What do you like best about PhpStorm?

After trying a few other software for development and coding, I found PHPStorm to be the best one so far. It has everything I require contained within it to make development work smooth and efficient with built-in FTP, database connections, and GIT among other features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhpStorm?

As the software has grown and been updated over the years, it does use a lot more memory than it used to, which can sometimes be a downside when you need to run multiple things on your computer without everything lagging/freezing up for a few moments. Syntax highlighting can sometimes take a few minutes to update after making changes, which can be annoying when you want to be sure things are right quickly at a glance.

"PHP, Javascript and Html code editor, with on-the-fly code analysis"
4.5/5
What do you like best about PhpStorm?

PhpStorm is a code editor specializing in Php, Html and javascript languages, which makes it very useful for the development of websites and applications. It has optimal tools and functions for writing fast code where the program reviews in real-time. of the code and does not present a suggestion to quickly autocomplete the characters and command orders as well as an error review, it also has debugging tools on the tests to guarantee the correct functioning of the projects to be carried out Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhpStorm?

I would like the program to have more preview options since the use of editing these codes is mostly focused on the development of websites and applications, which would allow a better work on designs Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Incredible PHP IDE with the most useful plugins for PHP web development applications"
4.5/5
What do you like best about PhpStorm?

PHPStorm provides all awesome plugins specially designed for PHP. We can add plugins and also extend it to with 3rd party plugins very easily. It provides an auto-complete code feature and shows errors at compile time itself, so we can fix the errors immediately there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhpStorm?

It is a very expensive IDE and sometimes it got too slow. If you want to make web applications using python, it does not work well! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The Finest IDE for Web Development"
5/5
What do you like best about PhpStorm?

Being a software developer, I would say this is the best IDE I have used so far. It comes with a complete package such as a terminal, plugins, themes, git integration etc. Buy a license and multiple users can use the activation code making it a convenient and one-time investment. Working on PHP and VUE JS projects is so much more efficient using PhpStorm. Compare with Clipboard is a very unique and helpful feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhpStorm?

Pricing is high! Bought one year license for 199$. I think it should be made a lot less so that students and organizations can invest in it. Experienced lag sometimes while coding, takes time to render the code. It consumes a lot of memory and battery drainage is fast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
