"The best software I have found for web development."
What do you like best about PhpStorm?

I love that PHPStorm is compatible with linux, where some other IDE's are only compatible with Windows and/or Mac OSX. It is also fast and relatively lightweight. It offers great integration with Git repositories, or even just plain FTP servers. Live code auto-completion is also a great plus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhpStorm?

While it is more lightweight than some alternatives, it still takes up a decent chunk of RAM. Other then this, I have no complaints about the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"One of the best editors for PHP developers!"
What do you like best about PhpStorm?

I like the amount of documentation available for PHPStorm. There is also a plethora of plugins available to extend PHPStorm like XDebug, git, and code sniffer. This makes the experience and the web development workflow much easier and improves concentration on getting good code written. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhpStorm?

I dislike that there is a price for PHPStorm. While it is not a high price for a license, it is still pretty steep considering that some other editors are available for cheaper or for free (Sublime Text, Atom, etc.) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
