Hi, wasn't here quite a long time, sorry. Well, you are true, maybe I judged Open Source too hard. You can, in fact, get support for it
But the commercial software isn't only closed source. How PHP can be closed source? Well, there's actually Zend Encoder, but rare companies use it, as few hosts can run that. So even if you buy a piece of PHP software, you get the code and you can study it and even [try to] modify it
Avactis doesn't encode its sources, so it's possible to modify it and there's even a separate Avactis Mods website that does that
