Zend or IonCube (or maybe there are other options)? What is better to use to encode your scripts. Which of them is not decoded by public means at the moment? Previously, as far as I know, Zend was easily decoded. Does this situation persist in newer versions?

Why encode? Whoever needs it - decodes it, and you - an extra hassle to support it.
He himself once coded scripts for the sale of zend. As the versions of PHP started to be updated, I got tired of making updates, etc.

Both are successfully decoded, since the principle is the same in all encoders.

Ioncube is better. At least with it, you don't have to think about the PHP version.

Everything opens up. Even without decoding the licenses are corrected by the php patch. But decoders have been around for a long time.
It's better to keep it on your server.

zend is easily opened, especially with obfuscation there are no problems, there are few public ioncube decoders, but they decode 4-ku, about 5-ku I xs, since I myself opened zend with code obfuscation, it’s not a problem to open it, but to bring hemorrhoids into a readable form but surmountable

Zend scripts under php 5.3.x and 5.x need different versions, and this is an extra hassle.

I once bothered with a similar problem, everything will be decoded, the most convenient thing is to transfer part of the script's work (some of its functions) to another server, which is already protected from unauthorized access, as well as checking real users from pseudo

There is also bCompiler .
Disadvantages:
- permanently in beta
- for each platform you need to collect binaries separately
A small manual for setting up a subject.
Although it does not help much after the php patch.

I think it will be easier for you to use an obfuscator, somewhere I saw a php script for php obfuscation)
