And without knowing anything about the applications it seems odd to me that one could assume PHP is a step backwards. I looked at a "coldfusion application" yesterday that was VERY simplistic and they were losing their server/software. So I could have told them it will take X amount of hours to make it work on a newer version of CF and that newer version of CF would cost X for the software and setup or hosting in the data center would cost X per month. Instead as much as I HATE(I want to crush the skull of who ever is responsible for it existing) SharePoint I told them they really could just rebuild this on the corporate SharePoint server in a days time and not spend a dime and still have the same business need met.
