Best RAD tool for web-based development in the world
We market and sell the following cloud-based solutions that were built with PHPRunner: Employee Performance Management (with built-in 360 Feedback); Customizable Industrial Skills Testing; and Employee Engagement and Survey solutions. All built and improved over several years using the capabilities of PHPRunner.
PROSPHPRunner solves complex web-development problems with a holistic approach. It has a friendly Windows client for design and development. Your DB scheme can be developed within the client, using Maria-MySQL, MS-SQL, DB2, MS-Access, Postgres, Oracle, SQLite, ODBC, you name it. Authentication for your app with static or dynamic permissions is built-in and easily modified. A flexible interface with many design themes can be used to design your pages, including modern interface (grid sorting and rearrangement). Reports and charting (bar, line, gauge, pie, donut, stacked column, etc.) are easily done with the platform. Import and export of data is supported. Mobile web app interface can be included. Built-in menus with customization, built-in email capabilities, etc. etc. etc. Built-in distribution/update to your host. I could go on and on. Most importantly, event customization capabilities that allow you to tailor special features above and beyond the system is easily retained and re-merged as you enhance and add to your application. My experience goes back at least 5 major and many minor versions and over 8 years. Support is very good. They have REALLY helped me and my business!
CONSThere is very little to dislike. If anything, keep in mind that you should strive to stay reasonably current as web methodologies change (like the advancement of PHP versions). Keep up to date with your web host and their PHP and MySQL/Maria versions. Xlinesoft has done a great job improving and enhancing this offering, and in keeping the solution current with modern web technologies.

A Joy to work with the PHPrunner Software and Xlinesoft
It has provided a product which has a very short learning curve due to its intuitive format. I use it to support multiple enterprises which include. * Healthcare. * Non Profit Organization, that uses it to support over 26 public schools with a program where kids help kids, titled, Helping Hands Ending Hunger. * Book Publishing. * Metallurgical Fabrication Enterprise. * Various Small mom-and-pop operations.
PROSEase of use, stability, integrates well with databases and other products. The latest version (10.1) of PHPrunner provides allows formatting of final panels presented to the user in a very intuitive environment. I have been using their products since 2005 and have always found them to be solid and reliable. The best part is the intuitiveness that it provides, having a computing experience that spans many, many years I started in the development and programming of systems in 1968, retiring as IT Director for a fortune 1000 enterprise in 2002 for the 1st time and still going with my own company.
CONSI would say although the Help portion is very extensive, sometimes it falls a bit short of providing the answer. Understanding that it is impossible to provide answers to every event or case...

Could be an excellent system
I love the idea and thought behind this product. Great concept
CONSPoorly implementation of the product. Also, lack of updates since inception. This could be great for people wanting to learn PHP.

My Experience with phpRunner
I built and currently administer a web-based Payroll system, a Benefits system, and an Equipment Inventory, Performance and Location system.
PROSI have been using phpRunner since 2008. I have tried most of the other rapid development software packages and in my opinion, phpRunner was the best choice. I love their latest feature, the new Designer GUI. If you're familiar with Microsoft Access, the Designer GUI is similar. You can drag & drop your fields. You have a properties selection area on the right side. The software is divided up like Access. You start with the Table area GUI, the Query GUI, setting up your field properties and search setting. Then a choice of Security settings. Then you have the Designer GUI and then the Events area. Once you finish building your project you can upload it to the server with their built-in FTP setup. Their support is great and has always been very helpful.
CONSLike with any software there is a small learning curve.

Easy and Efficient RAD Software for PHP applications
Basically, I am the CEO and developer for a company. I build PHP applications (of course, I'm using PHPrunner) for Training companies which helps them to load their learners and also allows their clients to see what training has been done and also see the trends every month. This has helped training companies boost their client bases which is a win for me.
PROSIt saves me from having to learn PHP coding from scratch and helps to rapidly build the applications without much coding. You can connect to multiple databases and you are not limited to just one. The themes are fantastic and you don't really have to do much improvisation. Dashboards are a fantastic feature and makes your application look more professional.
CONSNothing to dislike, just that sometimes you got to think outside the box if you want extra things to be done, but then again the support is fantastic. I submit a ticket and get a response the very next day and nowhere do I get this kind of service.
