CodeIgniter vs Laravel: which white-label to choose?

1. What's actually in the CodeIgniter products

QROrder, CarePulse, MediPortal, Ekattor and SmartSchool run on CodeIgniter 3 — no Composer, no queues, dead-simple hosting. They're the easiest white-label products to resell to budget buyers because they run on shared hosting for pennies.

2. Match the framework to the buyer

CodeIgniter fits: small clinics, single schools, local restaurants — anyone whose 'server' is a $5 shared box. Laravel fits: multi-branch operations, anyone who'll grow to need queues, Reverb realtime, or Redis.

• CI: zero runtime dependencies, install via FTP, works on old PHP hosts
• Laravel: artisan, migrations, Horizon, Reverb — needs a real server
• Both ship with the same white-label rights in the vault
