This is the best way to setup local web development environment on Windows!

  • September 03, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I have used XAMPP primarily for local web development. It provides an ideal environment in our local system to create and test software. The combination mentioned above is really all we need to quickly develop applications - Apache web server to host, MySQL and PhpMyadmin to manage the database
What do you dislike about the product?
The main disadvantage of this setup is its primarily designed for Windows which creates inefficiencies when using with Linux and Mac. I use Mac to develop complex applications and I have observed its performance to be subpar as compared to Windows. One more issue I faced while using this is the amount of manual updates we need to do to keep the software up to date.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
XAMPP helped me to quickly develop prototype of my software development project and showcase it to my superiors. The free and open source software platform helps in minimizing costs related to setup an actual environement for web development.

XAMPP: An Easy-to-Use Server Solution at low cost

  • December 02, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Light and easy for database management or its workflow system. Comes in a single package, thus speeding up the installation process. Work stably in the system without too frequent crashes.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are a few things that might be technical for some people using XAMPP on Windows 2016, and these are the things that are lacking in my opinion:

1. XAMPP is not officially supported in Windows 2016, so there is no guarantee that it will work properly.
2. I have to regularly update the latest security patches manually unlike other Web Server security.
3. To speed up the performance of the web server, I have to spend more time on XAMPP optimization.
4. Configuring XAMPP is not as easy as other web servers, because it requires manual configuration.
5. XAMPP does not support other web server features, such as SSL and virtual hosting.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
XAMPP server on Windows 2016 can help me in many ways. It can provide a secure and reliable web server environment for hosting websites, web applications, and databases. It can also be used to develop and test applications locally, without the need for an external server. Additionally, XAMPP can be used to create a local development environment, which allows me to work on projects without the need for an internet connection. Finally, XAMPP can be used to create a secure and private network for my projects, allowing me to share data and resources securely across multiple computers.

this is the simplest yet all in one sever for php developers

  • May 20, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
minimalism combined with all the features needed for PHP development and testing locally on a personal computer, along with low space requirements . also Xampp is open-sourced , easy to use as compared to its competitors and comes along with many other inbuilt modules that are helpful in other cms development projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
the only con that I felt while using it was the configuration it needs to set it up initially. You have to set up each .ini file manually at the start to get working on the projects using Xampp which can be quite a mess and hectic setup to begin with
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
All my PHP development projects were run and tested on xampp server only. In college also I used xampp for my PHP project and tested SQL using phpMyAdmin. The benefit of xampp was that it was like an all in one package for me and didn't have to switch to different software, as there were multiple functionalities compiled within xampp.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
you will need some good documentation for the initial setup to get started with xampp server but once set up it will be the easiest solution for PHP development when you need it.

Todo en uno para gestión de DB

  • May 13, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
La sencilléz que brinda Xampp Server es lo mejor, es una instalación sencilla, el software no consume gran cantidad de recursos, es más, no se siente que esté en ejecución. Integra todo lo necesario para gestión de base de datos y se accede a ello con muy pocos clics. Sirve tanto para usuarios avanzados como expertos ya que su configuración es muy fácil; el motor de base de datos de mysql es eficiente y veloz, lo que brinda confiabilidad, PHPMyadmin es increíblemente sencillo de usar y nuevamente menciono, todo este paquete integrado en uno sirve tanto para usuarios expertos como para quienes no lo son. En mi experiencia trabajé con este conjunto de apps durante casi toda mi carrera de ingeniería de sistemas en muchos proyectos donde nunca tuve fallos, siempre fue muy confiable, también en mi práctica empresarial y posterior primer trabajo. Por último algo que me encanta es la gran cantidad de documentación que hay en la red, la comunidad es muy grande y cualquier inconveniente se soluciona rápidamente aunque honestamente nunca tuve inconvenientes. El servidor web de apache es de gran utilidad al momento de desarrollar para web claramente como su nombre lo especifica, la cuestión es que muchas veces cuando estamos desarrollando alguna aplicación web, no tenemos cómo probarla en un servidor http real y es aquí donde entra Apache con esta genial integración. Además, adicionando todo esto en Windows 2016 podría asegurar que es la solución definitiva para desarrolladores tanto principiantes como expertos, la verdad es algo demasiado completo.
What do you dislike about the product?
La verdad nada. Xampp es sencillamente un software muy bien desarrollado y en conjunto con Windows 2016, Apache Web Server, PhpMyadmin y MySQL, hace que sea una suite de herramientas de bases de datos prácticamente perfecta a mi parecer, totalmente recomendado, para lo que siempre necesité, me sirvió más que perfecto y no tengo quejas al respecto.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Además de poder hacer pruebas sobre servidores locales, el poder guardar los datos en una base de datos segura, en todo el tiempo que usé todo este conjunto de softwares, jamás se me corrompió algún dato o alguna base de datos, nada, para mi esta es la suite de base de datos más confiable en todo internet.

I use these tools in almost all PHP language projects. Such as website development, software development, application development, etc. These tools provide Excellent support for these tasks.

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.

What do you dislike about the product?
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.

I have used the XAMPP server as a local server to connect my PHP projects scrips with PHPMyadmin. I have used XAMPP with other programming languages also and it worked very well.
