NOTE:
Best make sure you don't update your php too much or your customers may freak out as their scripts/sites may stop working  Not many developers have updated their scripts to php5.4 let alone php5.6
Also, have you tested ALL of the panel's functionality with php. 5.6? It was built on 5.3/5.4 and some feature may not work

Hi I was stuck trying to update php, I tried this method, so far with some testing to zpanel backend and a test joomla install it seems to work without issue using php 5.6.4, not comprehensively tested backend though, I will post if I find an issue

This method above don't work and suhosin is not loaded!

You will need to compile AGAIN suhosin!
To do so:
Code: cd /tmp
wget -nv -O suhosin.zip https://github.com/stefanesser/suhosin/archive/suhosin-0.9.37.zip
unzip -q suhosin.zip
rm -f suhosin.zip
cd suhosin-suhosin-0.9.37
phpize &> /dev/null
./configure &> /dev/null
make &> /dev/null
make install
cd ..
rm -rf suhosin-suhosin-0.9.37
so you will get:

Notice updating PHP to 5.6 is updating mysql to 5.5 too... and could cause later big issues when centos push updates that would conflict with remi!
I don't advice to do so!

Interesting thought about future upgrades borking it though Please note that on the CentOS wiki, on the "Available Repositories for CentOS" page ( http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories) the "Les RPM de Remi repository" is under the section "Known Problem Repositories" because it replaces core packages.
After a thorough research, my opinion is that the best choice is to use the IUS Community Repo ( http://iuscommunity.org/) that provides the "latest upstream versions of PHP, Python, MySQL". It is sponsored by internal work at Rackspace, and this means that it's not a one-man project, but something that Rackspace uses to deliver its services.
I updated a CentOS 6.6 server using this repo and now I have PHP 5.6.4 working with no problem.
Currently I have Zpanel on three CentOS 6.6 servers, and I am going to thest the Sentora beta on a CentOS 7 server, and later migrate the Zpanel servers to Sentora, as soon as it will be stable and with the migration tool available.
