Long time users since Vyatta 6.1 and can't think of anything better for our needs

  • August 03, 2024
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We find VyOS very easy to use, the CLI is very intuitive and particularly familiar if you come from a Juniper background. It's very easy to get installed and you can build up configuration slowly without tying yourself up in knots, it'll give you useful messages when things aren't working. Although we don't have a support contract ourselves, we've found the VyOS developers and staff very supportive and welcoming. We've used VyOS ever it first started as a project (moving away from Vyatta 6.1), so we've been using either Vytatta or VyOS since 2010 and have never stopped. The fact that it has a built in PPPoE server makes it very easy to allow other routers (e.g. OpenWRT) to sit behind VyOS and get a public IP.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't really think of any. Obviously from time to time you might wish it had an extra feature or two, but nothing that you can't suggest or contribute yourself... as it's an open source project.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Function Office leverages VyOS to enhance the IT infrastructure of our Seaquake project, enabling us to provide no-cost IT services to other non-profits, community groups, and charities who receive help through our IT Outreach programme.

Great networking product for versatility.

  • August 02, 2024
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the ability to install VyOS in the virtual environment and on standard physical computers to help resolve complicated network scenarios. I also like utilizing the Linux back end to extend the capability beyond the typical router setup.
What do you dislike about the product?
The main downside of VyOS is currently the lack of a GUI. For me personally, working in the command line my entire IT career, it is not an issue, but some of my colleagues would prefer a GUI to help them with configurations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I utilize VYOS for site-to-site VPN, virtual routers in our virtual infrastructure, and at our many sites as a network diagnostic tool, including speed tests and multicasting testing.
