Review on SensioLabsInsight by Devin Jenkins

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Brilliant service provided by Fastest Route Labs

The most valuable thing about this tool is its ability analyse php apps quickly with minimum fuss or complexity - I was able to get an initial analysis up within 30-40 minutes when all other tools were struggling! It's incredibly fast at doing simple checks like basic syntax mistakes & checking compatibility between frameworks.

And because we can run so many checks per minute on our codebase (a high volume development shop), the benefits continue long after you've left it running over night :) There are only 2 downsides:- Inclusion of some third party extensions adds overhead in terms of CPU time used.- For small bugs (&lt 20 lines) no visual feedback given is useful if my developers still expect something tangible afterwards - we're not looking for 100% perfect coding here - just minor niggles/bugs which otherwise may have been overlooked before releasing into live environments etc I like how easy they are to work with, and their customer support team has been very helpful as well! They're not expensive at all - you could easily spend $50 per month if you have a large project in progress. The product itself isn't overly complex or difficult to use; however, there's some things I wish were easier to do (e.g., move files around). We've used them for our entire site migration process so far, and we couldn't be happier!
