There's Zend Guard, ionCube and I also recall a third similar product (that probably no longer exists), but AFAIK none of them works with PHP 5.5 and OpCache is most likely the blocker for them. If OpCache and/or some syntax sugar isn't really a requirement though, I remember some years ago I had to use a Zend Guard version that was built for PHP 5.2 in a 5.3 environment ... using syntax compatible with 5.2 did the trick. My $0.02, Andrey.
