PHPLens is a fast and powerful way to design, publish and maintain your databases on the Web and Intranet. Why spend more time rewriting the same code over and over again?

If you find learning a new scripting or programming language tedious, PHPLens has dynamic editing. These are built-in forms that allow you to prototype, visualize and transform your database without any coding (see picture on the right).

If you want complete control, PHPLens offers over 250 scriptable properties to add more power to your code.

Product Pricing

We have an annual subscription model for PHPLens with an option to pay a one-time non-expiring perpetual license fee instead. Sales enquiries can be sent to sales@PHPLens.com.

The annual subscription model comes with software updates and priority email support. Perpetual license owners get one year priority email support and software updates for the first year and a non-expiring license. The perpetual license is good if you are creating a turn-key web application and your customer does not want to pay a subscription.

On purchase, you are licensed to install PHPLens on 1 production server for end-users and on 1 developer Web server for only testing and software development purposes. All prices are per server CPU.

So you get 2 licenses in one purchase.
