Zend Optimizer is an instrument, which is needed to execute files encrypted with Zend Guard - a widespread application that is employed to encrypt PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 and PHP 8 files with the purpose to protect them from tampering with the code or reverse engineering. Zend Guard is used by plenty of organizations which make paid script apps, so in case you acquire such an application for your website, you will most likely need Zend Optimizer to be available on the server where you'll host it.

Websites which use Zend Optimizer ordinarily perform much better as their PHP code is precompiled, therefore it is already optimized and will be executed more quickly.
