Xampp is a free open-source server tool that is very efficient and easy to use for frontend connection with database Phpmyadmin. It is very user-friendly for beginners. It consists of an apache web server, PHPMyAdmin, Mysql etc in a single tool. It can operate in multiple operating systems and requires very less RAM. It can operate well on old hardware ālso.

I don't like the user interface of XAMPP, it is very old, it needs improvement. Sometimes it gives an error while connecting with the Phpmyadmin database, it requires some settings to connect properly. It has fewer features not have sufficient for developers.

The simplicity that Xampp Server provides is the best, it is an easy installation, the software does not consume a large amount of resources, in fact, it doesn't feel like it's running. It integrates everything necessary for database management and is accessed with very few clicks. It is suitable for both advanced and expert users since its configuration is very easy; the MySQL database engine is efficient and fast, which provides reliability, PHPMyAdmin is incredibly easy to use and again I mention, this entire package integrated into one serves both expert users and those who are not. In my experience, I worked with this set of apps throughout almost my entire systems engineering career in many projects where I never had failures, it was always very reliable, also in my business practice and subsequent first job. Lastly, something I love is the large amount of documentation available online, the community is very large and any inconvenience is quickly resolved although honestly, I never had any issues. The Apache web server is very useful when developing for the web, as its name clearly specifies, the issue is that many times when we are developing a web application, we don't have a way to test it on a real HTTP server and this is where Apache comes in with this great integration. Additionally, adding all this in Windows 2016, I could assure that it is the definitive solution for both beginner and expert developers, it truly is something very complete.

The truth is nothing. Xampp is simply a very well-developed software and together with Windows 2016, Apache Web Server, PhpMyadmin, and MySQL, it makes for an almost perfect database tool suite in my opinion, totally recommended, for what I always needed, it served me more than perfectly and I have no complaints about it.

Installing this server in Windows makes it easy to run PHP, MySQL, and Apache web servers. As a result, the developer can see the output by developing and launching the entire project at once Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have been working with these tools for over ten years now and I can do great things. Port management is quite complicated, especially if other applications are running to create new ports. Which is quite complicated for new developers a lot of the time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

xampp takes a number of technologies that are most often used together in online development and combines it all into one package. It save installation time but more so, makes configuration and use so much simpler. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think there's a chance to do a bit better with the configuration dashboard. while most developers are well suited to the settings in these technologies, it would really simplify things to have it be able to be setup with a 'wizard' type of installation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I liked that this software is free, open-source (means a community is there to help you out if you are stuck somewhere) web-server solution. This software comprises of mysql, apache server, phpmyadmin and xampp server. A web server can be accessed locally on your desktop using this software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike that internet is required to access this software . Also, scope of few features to be added to phpmyadmin is there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
