If you are want to prevent piracy in relatively secured way, then there are few methods which you may employ.  These methods include the server-side execution of the software and encryption.  Both of these options are good software protection service against reverse engineering since the attacker will suffer severe problems in trying to reach the code.  However, there are few serious downsides to both of these methods.

However, there are still more options for protection and one of them is code obfuscation.  This methods is rather a way of making reverse engineering protection infeasible economically with regards to the resources that are needed and as well as time.  It is able to stave off the attacks with the use of obfuscator tools.  There are different type of obfuscation we can apply and it all depends on software format when it is distributed.  There are source code obfuscation, bytecode obfuscation and binary code obfuscation.  .Net and Java languages have different approach to compiler obfuscation.  While they achieve independence in platform, it is also easy to reverse engineer and decompile programs.  Authors often grab their techniques for obfuscation for better protection.  But still, the authors still need to obfuscate without a change in the logic of the program.  The purpose is indeed to protect the software and not to deform them.
