    A few of my team members started on vs code but after switching to PhpStorm they never looked back. Many of vs code features require adding in add on after addon to get at or near the included feature set of PHP storm that includes it out of the box. Plus PhpStorm allows so …

    While these two are also code editors, they are far from as robust as the PhpStorm IDE. Although these editors also support plugins to perform functions similar to PhpStorm, by bringing it natively it is much more efficient and you get rid of compatibility worries, etc. and it …

    PhpStorm is without compare for a shop that works entirely in PHP. We've evaluated some of the other text editors on the market and while they have their perks, specifically speed, they aren't nearly as easy to navigate within the codebase or make sweeping changes.

    Easier to use, more features, more reliable. Much more purpose built with specific integrations aimed directly at php code instead of the broad generic interfaces the other software have that are aiming to support many different languages.

    I believe PhpStorm has a bit more functionality then VS Code, however VSCode is a free option for a casual user.

    When I have evalutated Eclipse and NetBeans (years ago), I have noticed that PHPstorm have more features already included, and overall, they are better in quality.

    For example code refactoring, code analysis, debugging - everything was easier in PHPStorm.

    Both Visual Studio Code an Sublime Text are excellent code editors, and even offer a better performance than PHPStorm. However they are not complete IDE's and do not perform half of the tasks that PHPStorm does.

    Two things were decisive for choosing PhpStorm, and the first was the Education version since we were a university we were able to license for free, and the other was that we just had to use a single tool to develop our activities (coding, versioning), and operations in the …

    Before PHPStorm, most of us were using Komodo IDE. PHPStorm's performance is quite a bit peppier, though, and that makes a huge difference on large projects. PHPStorm's rolling feature releases also give a better window into the direction of the tool, and JetBrains has been …

    Notepad++ is exactly that, notepad on steriods. However, PHPStorm was designed specifically for PHP ( my language of choice ) and thus, common settings that I would have to tailor within Notepad++ ( ever time an update comes out, which is very often ), do not have to get reset …

    Each one of the products I've listed are great in their own right, but non of them provide as complete a solution as PhpStorm in my opinion. Very few products offer all of the features that PhpStorm does and those that do don't have the greatest performance in my experience. …

    In comparison to many other popular code editors, PhpStorm stands out in terms of its fantastic integration of so many high quality and extremely useful features. In particular, the code quality analysis and code navigation features are not available in many other development …

    I found phpstorm had either more features, or performed faster than all the other IDE's I've used in the past so I haven't even tried them lately.

    PhpStorm is the most complete IDE for PHP that I have used. It is stable and solid, and it works on all platforms. There are some editors that are quicker loading, Sublime Text, Notepad ++, but they don't have the depth and solid foundation that PhpStorm has. This is why we …

    PhpStorm compares comparably to Visual Studio for a PHP development environment. It is the most powerful editing environment I have come across for PHP. Having a background in C#, it feels much closer to and similar in power to VS. Has many of the same built in functions …

    It has support for almost any third party tools that you'll use for PHP development. You have a great support for employees and it's always being updated so it supports the latest technology.

    PhpStorm has a free trial. Visual Studio IDE does not. I believe that VSIDE is better suited for C+/.NET development and not PHP. Despite their PHP plugins & debugger, stepping through the code on PhpStorm always feels better and more intuitive than stepping through PHP with …
