Live parsing: The live parsing is a great help. As you type your code, phpDesigner is parsing and it and checking it for syntax errors. It reports any errors on the bottom of the screen as you type.
Function IntelliSense and descriptions: As you begin typing a PHP function name, the IntelliSense will give you a list of available functions for the letters that you have already typed. It will also display a short description for that function, which is very handy if you are not sure of the exact description to chose.
If you have are returning to a script, you can click on a PHP function name and the description will appear.
Interface: The interface is visually pleasant and fairly well laid out.
Project management tools: phpDesigner comes equipped with project manager tools like a debugging tracker.
There are loads of features with phpDesigner, as listed on their website. The above is just a short list of my favorites.
