Increase customer retention by not forcing upgrades to a newer PHP version About 85% of all PHP sites use highly popular PHP versions – 5.2, 5.3, and 5.4.

HardenedPHP patches old PHP versions so that you do not have to force your customers to re-write scripts written for an older PHP version or, even worse, risk breaking their sites. | |
