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.

VyOS has proven to be very reliable… VyOS has proven to be very reliable since we started using it in 2011 (starting with Vyatta).

Professional, Friendly and Reliable Vyos is a fantastic, performance router. Quick and easy to setup with the basics, but enough features to make it the sort of router you could run an ISP off easily (and I know people who have done just that) I use at home in a Virtual Router and I find it performs amazingly. No longer do we have to reboot the router at home to fix odd issues, because we don't have any. Vyos is an excellent tool not just for being a great router, but also to use for learning and teaching people the basics of routing. It's got built-in support for all the major useful VPN protocols, and the 1.4 builds have introduced support for Containers based on Podman. This allows you the flexibility to add interesting services/features to your router as required in a simple, secure and reproducible manner. Finally the Vyos Slack is full of helpful, friendly knowledgeable people. The forums are great as well. Vyos is my go to tool when I need a router or a VPN terminator etc. Professional, friendly and reliable. That's Vyos.

Best software router out there if you… Best software router out there if you like a professional CLI, rock solid stability and loads of enterprise features.

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.
