Why do we use PHP Symfony?
We don’t choose technologies just because they’re new or trendy. We use those which are stable, reliable and battle-tested. Symfony, an open-source PHP framework, is supported by over 500 000 devoted developers all around the world. Therefore, it can guarantee that your web application will be future-proof.
In fact, the Symfony PHP framework has proven its reliability in numerous world-known projects like Spotify, National Geographic, TED and Vogue. And Symfony components are used by other frameworks and platforms, most notably phpBB, Behat and phpMyAdmin. Respect among developers? That’s right!

Symfony is a very versatile framework, making it an ideal choice for various kinds of web applications. In fact, a great number of world-known platforms are based on Symfony components – from CMS to CRM to e-commerce. Among Symfony CMS projects you can find such famous ones as Drupal, Joomla and eZ Platform.
Symfony CRM solutions include, among others, OroCRM and CiviCRM. And then there are Symfony e-commerce platforms, like Magento and PrestaShop. And these are only the very basic, ready-to-use solutions! Imagine what can be done using the Symfony PHP framework when you’re developing custom software.
What’s more, Symfony’s performance can be additionally improved by using a variety of tools based on this framework and compatible with it. A great example of that is API Platform – a Symfony-based tool for designing APIs in no time. To sum up, when it comes to flexibility and stability there aren’t many things better than Symfony.
