VyOS: Open Source router done right! VyOS has been my go to virtual router distribution ever since vyatta got acquired. I love their new business model which makes sure the project stays afloat while still giving the community all the features being developed without restrictions.

Get VyOS in your toolbox Over the last two years of so, VyOS has become my go-to for a wide range of use cases, ranging from a simple home router all the way up to using it for private to public cloud connectivity on AWS, Azure and GCP. It's also a great VPN appliance for road-warriors. It doesn't matter what I throw it on, KVM, Xen or VMware hypervisors, or bare metal Xeon, Xeon-D and below... it just works. VyOS kicks ... you know what. I hope you'll decide to support the project too.

Excelent experience of using VyOS last year I tried to use VyOS as a router in a pilot project. it was really perfect, easy to use, stable and I liked it. I used VyOs to establish IPSec tunnel to Cisco and GCP and it works perfectly. They had a great community and you will get a fast answer in case of a problem.

Feature set far beyond what you'd expect I've been using vyos since 2013. I was looking at purchasing a couple of other hardware devices from a vendor that sounds like Jupiter. There were several licensing restrictions and extra costs that would have gone into the project, but thanks to Lanner electronics and vyos, the cost dropped by about 75% and we didn't have to worry about extra licensing to do what we needed. I'm pretty much s novice when it comes to the network and network security side of the house, but our very experienced network team was more than impressed with vyos. And they were able to, not only complete, but add features, to our installation for several hundred workstations using 5Gb of bandwidth across 4 sites. Myself and a team with over 60 years of combined experience can't recommend it strongly enough.

VyOS is my go-to router distribution VyOS is my go-to router distribution. I use it at client sites, at home, and would not hesitate to recommend it for most router/firewall needs. It runs superbly well on small low powered hardware as well as larger servers. I have never used or needed the paid support, but for a mission critical installation I would think it would be beneficial.
