I have been developing a custom program for the company I work for. We would like to possibly sell the program, in the future. It is written in PHP (duh). I was looking at the Zend Encoder to hide the source code and stop people from writing their own scripts to interface with the program. We would like to just give people cd's but the software is for non-profits, made by a non-profit and I think it would be copied and used without anyone paying for licenses, except for that first person. Does anyone have any expirience with the Zend Encoder? We are developing on Linux with Apache, but will the Zend Encoder create cross platform files, I know it should, but how well does it work. I'm just trying to gather some preliminary information. Probobly wont move on this for atleast 3 months.
Thanks

Zend Encoder?

I found the SourceGuardian for PHP. I downloaded it, works ok so far. Makes the file sizes much bigger, but not worried about that really. They say there is not a noticable overhead from the encryption, but I'll find out as a test it. It doesn't do any encoding like Zend Encoder, so it won't increase the speed of the scripts, but it does do a decent job of stopping prying eyes. Here's the site for anyone else who wants to look. http://sourceguardian.com/ it's also alot cheaper than Zend Encoder, ALOT!!!
