The research is to compare two techniques of web development in PHP. Column Drop and Mostly Fluid, in order to identify which the best in the usability is of identify which is the best in the usability of an adaptive web application and with it, develop a "user management system, land and crops "to the Board of Irrigation Chambo - Guano. To analyze the prototype developed in each technique, the following tools will be used: BrowserShots / screenshots, eXaminator, observation, and surveys with the following results: In Portability about 30%, Column Drop uses 30% of adaptability devices (Smartphone, Tablet, Pc) in relation to 20% of Mostly Fluid; Compatibility of 10% Column Drop uses 10%, it is compatible with browsers (Mozilla Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer and Opera) in relation to 5% of Mostly Fluid; Accessibility about 30%, Column Drop is accessible by 20%, while 30% Mostly Fluid, it is accessible satisfactorily; in User Experience over 30%, Column Drop responds with a 21% of acceptability by users in respect of 9% Mostly Fluid, for a total usability Column Drop 81% versus 64% of Mostly Fluid. Therefore, the technique offers better usability is Column Drop a 17% difference, so we proceeded to the development of adaptive web application using cascade methodology for tracking each of its stages with their respective requirements, for encoding we use the following tools: NetBeans, Apache and MySQL.
