“Bell Canada has chosen to partner with Zend because they simply provide the best ROI for our clients, bar none. The bottom-line savings to enterprises using dynamic languages like PHP means that, although we are technology agnostic and regularly deliver Java and ASP.NET solutions, we are seeing an enormous, growing demand for lower cost PHP solutions over Java or ASP.NET implementations.”

Arnaud VanDerVoorde, General Manager, Web Solutions Groupe Grandes Entreprises, Bell Canada

“The visibility that Zend Platform provides is invaluable. The ROI we gain by pinpointing and then tracking down the cause of any errors in our code helps us prevent downtime, lets us manage our PHP applications more smoothly, and has even allowed us to quickly migrate to a safer, more stable codebase. This alone pays back the cost of Zend Platform many times over.”

Francis Blondeau, Manager of Web Development,Montréal Exchange

“I highly recommend Zend Platform to anyone running a production PHP application. It benefits end users, developers, and administrators. It also makes much more effective use of the hardware. I look forward to seeing what they are going to build next!”

Jacob Taylor VP of Engineering of SugarCRM

“We chose PHP because of the close Zend-IBM partnership. Our entire business is based on IBM hardware and we feel safe in the knowledge that we are running applications supported by Zend and IBM who provide professional tools which have been extensively tested for interoperability and performance. This gave us the confidence we needed in our decision to migrate our applications.”

Ivano Mangiarotti IT Manager Carlo Gavazzi Automation

“As a leading service provider, ICONY has to take maximum precautions regarding security, reliability, and stability of content. Zend Platform provides the necessary functionalities to support our strict requirements for developing in PHP, without having to increase head count.”

Uwe Thomas Member of ICONY’s board of directors

“One of the biggest difficulties we had previous to using Zend Platform was pinpointing where some crash had occurred. We only knew that something had crashed, but it took hours to locate. With Zend Platform's PHP Intelligence feature we are immediately notified about the problem, its severity and location. Now getting to the problem takes only minutes.”

Henrik Weckstrom CIO of Verkkokauppa

“Our application is constantly scaling – many aspects of our architecture were designed with this in mind. We have the necessary infrastructure in place to scale the application horizontally as our user base grows and we serve even more media. This will include the Session Clustering component of Zend Platform.”

James Stewart Systems Manager of Beam.TV

“Zend Platform's PHP Intelligence provides the insight we need to identify and fix errors in source code we didn't develop.”

“Zend Platform is a real performance booster for PHP applications built on top of MySQL databases. The new Session Clustering module speeds things up by significantly reducing the number of interactions with the database.”

Zack Urlockerfor VP of Lifecycle Marketing, Sun Microsystems

“It can be fairly straightforward to find a bug during development and testing, but when your code runs in an environment where thousands of users are hitting it at once, you never know exactly what will happen. Zend Platform not only increased our performance out-of-the- box, but it has helped us to discover underperforming SQL queries and bottlenecks in our code. This really helps our developers fix problems quickly and give our members the best user experience on our site.”

Nuno Loureiro Web Developer of Portugal Telecom

“Zend Platform Session Clustering significantly improves the scalability of our Web Cluster. With the always increasing number of freenet.de users, it is crucial to maintain our site's availability and ensure its response time for continued user satisfaction. The Zend Session Clustering is far superior to other existing mechanisms - easier to operate and more fail-safe.”

Stephan Esch CTO of Freenet.de AG

“It's difficult to ask a customer to accurately give us all the steps that led up to the error they saw. With Zend Platform, any error is automatically recorded, with the complete problem context making it easy for us to fix a problem. Zend Platform is really improving the quality of our website.”

Henrik Jensen IT Specialist of TDC

“Zend Studio is far and above the best IDE on the market for PHP / LAMP development. The Smart GoTo Source, DB Integration, PHP5 support, CVS interface, and PHPDocs tools will allow our development team to work extremely efficiently, and will easily trim weeks off of our schedule.”

Rich Morrow Senior Software Engineer, Lockheed Martin

“Studio features prominently in our development best practices. All of our engineers leverage Zend Studio to test code, look for hidden problems, reproduce issues, and improve the quality of our shipping code. We also use the Zend Platform to monitor our beta demo and fix any issues discovered by the community. All of our production servers are constantly monitored by the Zend Platform.”

Jacob Taylor CEO, SugarCRM

“The new code completion features combined with the ever increasing functionality of Zend Studio make this IDE the only environment worth considering for commercial and private PHP development.”

Mel Boyce Salesforce.com

Christian van Eeden Application Specialist, Schenker of Canada, Ltd.

“Zend Studio has proven to be a key element in enabling development of the OPIS application quickly and effectively. With the aggressive schedule of the NASA Exploration Vision, our team needs fast, nearly bullet-proof development tools. Having PHP development solutions like Zend Studio is a critical factor for successfully deploying our system, so that mission designers can access the data they need.”

Julie Levri OPIS Principal Investigator, NASA Ames Research Center

“Awesome new features! The biggest ones for me are the Code Folding (I actually requested this a while back, thanks for listening) and the Web Services additions. I think I may be able to finally dump jEdit for this.”

Michael Deeks Software Programmer, eQuest LLC

“Zend Studio is getting better and better. Awesome. Every time I try out another editor, I can't even use it for an hour before I've given up in disgust - they just don't stack up against Studio!”

Dave Lyon Webmaster, ContentWatch, Inc.

“The new SOAP features including creating a WSDL file or even parsing it which reflects to code completion and the inspectors make the new release the most sophisticated tool for PHP web services development. Once again, Zend manages it to be way ahead of the competition.”

Andreas Demmer netz98 new media

Miroslav Sulc StartNet s.r.o

“Zend Studio is the first IDE to enable me to fully utilize MacOS X to develop PHP applications. It's hellishly fast and the code analyzer can pick up any weak points in a script at the touch of a button. The best PHP IDE out there.”

Ben Barnett Bill Barnett & Partners, UK

“I must say, the added SQL support alone is enough to make me think this release is the best yet. I have only been using the software for a short time, but I am always amazed at the functionality upgrades that come along with this software. It only keeps getting better.”
