And the price of this frame is not too high. In fact, Yii is one of the most efficient PHP frameworks.
2. CodeIgniter
CodeIgniter is an application development framework - a toolkit designed for people who build PHP websites. Its goal is to develop projects quickly: it provides a rich set of libraries to complete common tasks, as well as a simple interface and a well-organized structure to access these libraries. Developing with CodeIgniter can inject more creativity into your projects because it saves a lot of coding time.
3. CakePHP
CakePHP is a framework for rapid development of PHP, which uses some common design patterns such as ActiveRecord, Association Data Mapping, Front Controller and MVC. Its main goal is to provide a framework that enables PHP developers of any level to quickly develop web applications, and this rapid implementation does not sacrifice the flexibility of the project.
4. PHPDevShell
PHPDevShell is an open source (GNU/LGPL) rapid application development framework for developing pure PHP without Javascript. It has a complete GUI administrator backend interface. Its main goal is to develop management-based applications such as plug-ins, where speed, security, stability and flexibility are the top priorities.

Your Akelos application can run on most shared hosting providers because the only requirement for Akelos on the server is to support PHP. Therefore, the Akelos PHP framework is ideal for publishing stand-alone web applications because it does not require non-standard PHP configuration to run.
6. Symfony
Symfony is a web application framework for developing PHP5 projects.
The purpose of this framework is to speed up the development and maintenance of web applications and reduce repetitive coding work.
Symfony has low system requirements and can be easily installed on any setup: all you need is Unix or Windows and a web server with PHP5 installed. It is compatible with almost all databases. The price of Symfony is not high, much lower than the cost of a host.
For PHP developers, using Symfony is a natural thing, and the learning curve is only one day. Clean design and code readability will shorten development time. Developers can apply the principles of agile development (such as DRY, KISS or XP, etc.) and focus on the application logic level without spending a lot of time writing endless XML configuration files.
Symfony is designed to build complete enterprise-level applications. That is, you have control over the entire setup: from path structure to external libraries, almost everything can be customized. In order to comply with enterprise development regulations, Symfony also bundles some additional tools to facilitate project testing, debugging, and archiving.
